Only another 3 weeks to go! I just went to Petsmart and got all the stuff I think I will need initially. Plus a few things I won't need for a while :) but it's because I'm so excited! I even went online and planned out some rest stops from the breeder's house to our house, and made up a mini schedule for our puppy's meals and potty times. Actually I think I'm preparing like crazy because while I'm excited, I'm also a little nervous. Not only is this the first dog I'm adopting as an adult, but it's a puppy! That means patience, wisdom, and problem solving are going to be really important! Granted, I was raised with dogs and I love them, but it's very different when you're a child and ultimately the problem solving is up to the adults. At least we are getting her while I'm on summer break, if I had a year-round job I don't know if I'd be okay getting a puppy. So I guess it will be good having the first few months to get settled and enjoy :).
Oh and I think we have decided on a name finally! Spunky :)

Way to go! I, like you, didn't get my first dog until I was an adult. It should make you a much more appreciative and responsible pet owner! Good luck and keep us posted!

That's a cute name. :) I'm sure it will all go just fine. I was the same way when we were waiting for it to be time to pick up Finnigan. He's our first dog on our own too and it's been quite an adventure. :)

Spunky is a cute name. Good luck with your new puppy and I always take mine to obedience classes when they get old enough. It helps me be a better parent!

How exciting! I had so much fun with my first puppy. Luckily he was very forgiving as I figured it all out and despite all my mistakes, he grew into such an amazing dog. Good luck!
