As a few of you already know Tim and I finally made the decision to get another dog. Time to make it official here on the blog. Next month will be two years without Roxy and we've decided that it's well over due.
I've been keeping an eye on R&R Farms a breeder up near Jacksonville for some time and have gone through a half dozen other breeders. We've had a deposit on a puppy there for a while and yesterday Tim and I drove up to pick out our girl from her litter. It may sound like an easy decision ... Only four in this litter of black labs and one is a male. Since we had first choice on the black females that gave us just three to choose from. Uuuugh! Let me tell you it was tough. Glad we didn't have to decide from the other, one week older, litter of TEN.
After some good quality time spent with all three girls we chose the girl known as Female #3. Tim and I have not decided on a name yet. I think we want to spent some time with her before deciding. We do have a short list of names that is constantly changing. She is just 4 1/2 weeks old now and still requires some more good quality time with her mom and litter mates.
Our little girl has melted both our hearts. We will have three more weeks to prepare for her arrival and to decide on a name. And of course we are camping in the Airstream the weekend we pick her up! Guess we will be starting her out from the beginning on learning how to camp.
I can't wait to update you all with pictures of her once we pick her up in three weeks. This will be the longest three weeks ever!
