I'm so happy for you!! That's a special time for you and a great bonding experience.

We tied a knot in one of my socks and left it with the breeder. She thought I was a little nuts, but she put it with him. She later told me that it became one of his favorite things and he would play with it all the time. I don't know how much of that is true, or how much it helped, but I think it made a difference.
Thanks for saying you're in South Africa, I was trying to figure out where RSA was.
