So it's been a little over a week since I've had "Jack", who I've decided to rename "Mickey". Now to get him a proper tag. So here's a little update on how we're doing...

I took him to the vet earlier this week, and she said that he needed to wear an e-collar again (that is the cone of shame for anyone that doesn't know. Haha.) because he's been licking his neuter suture, and he's been biting at his butt area. I was worried that he has fleas, but she combed him and said it…

Well, Jack has been here for just about 24 hours now. And I can honestly say, I love this puppy!

Jack was a show prospect before he came to live with me, so he's never learned any of those "silly" things like "sit" or "stay". But he's one of the most polite puppies I've ever met! He doesn't try to eat everything, and if he does, a stern "no" will usually deter him. He does lick... kinda a lot though. Not sure if this will be a problem or not, since I'm not a huge fan of dog…

Talked to the breeder today. Jack's flying out here tomorrow night! By this time tomorrow, he should already be here! :] I'm so excited!!! We had a slight hiccup earlier since Jack went to the vet, and the vet found out he developed hematoma at his incision site, but he should be fine with some antibiotics. Which I will now have to learn to feed to him. Haha.

Today I went pet supply shopping. Spent a good... almost $200. And that's without all the crate stuff, and the x-pen!…

Being part of this site has only been a very short part of my dog-wanting life, but I'm very, very happy to report that a payment has been made, and contracts reviewed... Finally, after almost 20 years of waiting... I'm getting a puppy. :]

Everyone, meet "Jack"!
