Everyone,

I cannot thank all of you enough for your help these past few months.
I appreciate it so much.

I brought my little three-year old home today. She is perfect. I just love her.
My live has changed, for the better. She rode on my lap the entire way home, and we stopped for a quick dinner, and she was fine. I have not heard her bark at all. She potties outside, so far, but I have only had her home for three hours.

I made a pit stop at Walmart and now have $130 wrapped up in dog beds, shampoo, leashes, stakes, toys, crate, carrier, etc.

Where do I get the cute dog bows? She came home with a rubber band
in her hair, and I cut it out. She smelled awful, so she had a flea bath, and I found one dead flea on the kitchen floor.

My house will probably become messy, as she follows me around all over.

The breeder had 3 adults, 5 puppies, 2 cats, a Lab and two grandchildren in a 900 sq. ft. home. Wow! I hope Sadie does not get bored.

She tolerated her bath very well, and also the hairdryer.

I need to get her to a groomer, but my breeder said she leaves her long silky
hair long, rather than a puppy cut as she has fine hair. I am going to ask the groomer her opinion, but what do you all do with fine hair - leave it long.

Mom loves her long hair, and I know it would look better if she were properly groomed.

Thank you all, and keep your fingers crossed that this works out. She sees the vet tomorrow.

Kate and Sadie
