natalie · 05-08-2005, 02:01 PM

Ya know what.. that is such a great idea!!!
You aren't crazy AT ALL! We all do crazy things for our puppies. lol.. REALLY crazy things.
I wish I could have thought of a Puppy Shower! I would have given Fred one, too!

Oh, and welcome to YorkieTalk! I'm Natalie!

Hi and welcome!!! A puppy shower sounds like fun! Wish I was invited to one!!!

simonandhallie · 05-08-2005, 02:21 PM

What an excellent idea! We will never think you are crazy for stuff like that, we will just be upset that we didnt think of it too

You are not crazy at all. I wish I have thought of that also. LOL

dianne · 05-08-2005, 05:21 PM

only people who have never known the love for a dog would think it is silly.what a great idea

milliecorrales · 05-08-2005, 05:58 PM

Great idea, however, gifts are never suggested. Most people will know if you call it a "shower" however, to suggest that they bring a gift is in poor taste. Have the shower, do not suggest that they bring a gift, chances are they will, but not at your suggestion. JMHO

What a great idea! I mean, new dog, you need supplies, just like you need baby supplies for, well, a baby, right?
Send out invitations, so people take you seriously, just as you would a baby shower,or bridal shower, and see what happens. I'm sure your friends will get a kick out of it, since no one really does this. And turn it into a fun time. Maybe your friends can bring there dogs etc. and you can serve nice dog treats, and good food and drinks for the owners. I'm sure it will be a hit.
I'm going to do this for my next dog, what a brilliant idea.
Good luck!

OMG

. We were just talking about that in the chat room the other nite. I think it is a great idea cause there is a lot needed when bringing home a new pup. Especially ones you know are going to be spoiled anyway lol.

valiegirl · 05-08-2005, 07:45 PM

My friend had a puppy shower when she got her toy poodle. Gifts were not asked for, but most people brought them. She provided food and drink for everyone and it was fun. Mostly we all sat around talking for a few hours taking turns holding the pup.

StewiesMom · 05-08-2005, 09:00 PM

Sounds like it could be cute, but I know my family/friends wouldn't show up

they love stewie but can only take so much of him and me talking about him. haha.
