Welcome to YT!
After sifting thru a lot of this thread, you have gotten some very good advice. I am sorry that you felt that you couldn't or shouldn't post, please do not shy away from posting, responding and certainly asking questions. I've learned sooo much on here and have met many wonderful people and made friends with many more who I have only talked thru the internet with.
You sound like a wondeful person who just wants the best for her new addition, who by the way, is just adorable! I am glad that you found us and will continue to on here.
I wish you well with Riley's homecoming and look forward to seeing pictures of the happy occasion.
It's so exciting bring puppy home.
