Super adorable ... and happy for you ... it was obvious that losing Jesse James was a tough blow.

My wife suggest you get another one. That way she won't be lonely.

Yeah Good for you guys !!

She's freaking adorable !!

Did ya get any puppy breathe????

Wow -good stuff there. I love dogs but like Jags most of mine have been rescue mutts with 6 months to a year in the bag before I get them. Still some house rules learning but no where near the challenge of a pup. My latest(now 8 months on Thursday) was and still is something. I am going through shoes like they are free!! Glad she doesn't prefer chewing on saws.

Cute pup - got to love a lab

haha...awesome news....great looking dog!....shes bringing back memories of those sharp needle teeth that puppies have and the scratches all over my arms from playing with them when they are that young!....enjoy!

Big time cute.

(why not adoption?)

Steve she is a keeper. The PIA stuff will be behind you before you know it. We still have the chew marks on my back patio door sill, one of the old kitchen chairs, and on some baseboard in one corner of the hallway. All reminders of when my golden was just a pup. I'm too busy to repair any of this stuff, but I kinda don't mind too much that the reminders are still there.

When she drives you nuts at 3:00 am, just think about those of us that would give anything for the sound of that pup who did the same then grew into the best friend we could imagine, and then left this world far too soon - like my Bear, like your old buddy Jesse James. I know you know that already, just worth repeating.

FWIW, Our 6 year old newf still comes in and wakes me up in the middle of the night sometimes just to get out in the cool air, and then scratches to get back in 20 minutes later. Rinse and repeat. She wants to be outside, but she also wants to be in with her "peeps" even more. Can't get mad at her. One day she will break my heart too. Give that pup a scratch behind the ear from me if you don't mind.

Congrats to you flatbedford What a bundle of joy! (and frustration at times)

Get Puppy on a strict schedule, stick to it, and PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE. It will work and the gross/sucky part of it will fade soon enough. But you already knew that... just needed some "remindin'". And could the "remindin'" be more tenderly delivered?

FYI - if you are as anal about your dogs as I am then their food is a topic of major discussion on many other forums. I was feeding my dogs Blue for a long time but recently discovered it(along with many other premium brands) was bought by Diamond which is junk. My new food I am feeding and comes highly recommended is Dr. Tims. Tough to find in retail but can be purchased online and free shipping. I am on a revolving ship schedule and all the pros here in Michigan that have working dogs rave about it.

Dog food has zero regs so it is loaded with JUNK - short of making your own(which brings on many other complications) this stuff is the best IMO.

Just an FYI for your little pup - may as well get her started on the good stuff and it is really not to pricy.

We make our own pet food. All the pet food companies tell you not to feed "left overs", but frankly? we eat good food. NO junk, no GMOs, and our fool dog at 11-12 ish (rescue, so not sure) is in beautiful condition and the vet. said that whatever we've been doing... keep it up! ditto for the Pride.

Good to know new puppy is settling in nicely.

Congrats on the beautiful lil' lady, flatbed! Roomate had a yellow in college, we trained her to sniff out the frequent escapees from the reptile room

You HAD to say it, didn't you? Just wait...ha ha ha!
Glad you got her. I know she is no replacement for JJ, but she will help fill that hole. I had a kitty that I loved more than any other cat, and swore I would not have another. Three months later, I got another.
Congrats, Flatbedford, I hope you have many happy days with the "niece".
