I know what you mean about the nerves. I've almost decided that I want my next one to be from an exhibitor that has an older pup that didn't work out as a show prospect and is spayed / neutered before I get it.

I, totally, agree...I never really wanted an older pup, but then I got this little rescue Chorkie...Based on her teeth, she's about a year and a half old, and she has worked out just fine...I did have to have her spayed, dental, shots, etc. etc. etc., but she has worked out just fine...I realize now, you don't always need to have a puppy...Just look at Darlene's Jesse...He's a gorgeous little adult dog...I think she is having to work on the potty pad thingy, as he was outdoor trained, but it looks like she is tickled to pieces w/him ...I know I'm very happy w/my little Cha Cha, and she seems very happy to be here too
