Hi and welcome to YT. Congratulations on your new little furbaby. I can just feel the excitement in your writing!!
Levi, our youngest little guy is 18 months old now. We got him last October when he was nearing 7 months old. We worried too about the bonding issue, etc. But we found out quickly that we worried and fretted for nothing. He made himself right at home as soon as we got him here and has been under foot ever since. We had no problem whatsoever potty training him to go outside. My husband was much more worried than I about an older puppy but after a few days with Levi he was very comfortable with the decision. It was kind of nice by-passing some of the real puppy stages if you know what I mean.
Also he was very dark when we got him and still is very dark. The breeder told me he would probably get to be a dark steel blue and it looks like he will be in time. He's still very black for the most part and his little face is dark too and I very much love him this way.
Best wishes and can't wait to hear more. |
