Thanks so much for the compliments on our little female "Lilly"....she is so special and I am amazed at how "smart" she is!!!! I have raised many large breed puppies over the years and she has to be the smartest and most alert puppy ever! We picked her up Easter Sunday from In-laws as they are 4 hrs away and brought her home earlier than usual, she was then at 7 1/2 weeks of age, didn't wimper one time, layed next to our Pom/Pek all the way home and that night in crate next to bed she only wimpered slightly when she had to go about midnite and then a couple hrs later...very secure, bold loves strangers (too much) and loves to cuddle and sleep next to you. In about a week she then started sleeping till 4 am when my wife gets up and then she is put into bed after pottie break with me until 6 a.m.....it appears that she will only get to about 3 lbs with her current weight. We are sooooo careful with her being so small. Very healthy and vigorous too, eats like a big dog especially when the 12 yr aussie sits next to her and watchs her eat, she digs in and actually eats more this way as the competitive spirita is there already.
Anyway, we are having so much fun with our little princess! Has to have fluffy pillow to sleep on and is sleeping in bed with us now on pillow between us all night...I can tell she is going to be super spoiled!!!!
