Thanks Lisa. You are always so encouraging to everyone! I am setting up a picture and video file folder just for her

We think we have a collar small enough, but I need to buy another one, which I will do after she arrives. She should have a collar on her when she is shipped.

Leashes of course we are good to go with. She will need a show collar, which I will get at the next show.

Life jacket I will see if Razz;s big lifevest will work for her - but I don't think so. Zoey's is too big for right now. So that will be a purchase about a month from now or so.

I have not talked to hubby about the super duper crate that has the special build -as I have not contacted the supplier to see if they make a crate large enough for Magic. And at about $1000 a crate that is a pretty expensive investment.

We don't need to worry about coats - just booties and I may have a small pair that will fit her.

I need to see about a diet for her. I am thinking of switching her to Raw / Home cooked - as my experience has been that she won't eat kibble after about two wks when all the other dogs are on home-cooked.

We did find an air mattress single size - so this wkend we are re-vamping the garden room so the pack and I can sleep in there for her first few weeks. Then she will transition to our bedroom where we all sleep at night. And yes she will sleep in her crate, just like all except Magic. She needs to learn crate training for many reasons.

Stainless steel bowls we have lots of and she will be fed from the ground until she grows up enough to be fed from the dual feeder.

It is an exciting time for me
