I am paying for the trip, but She has not charged me for her time...she has not asked for anything other than to give her baby a GREAT home...which she KNOWS I plan on doing :D the sheer fact that she will be missing out on sleep, time with her newest litter, and time away from home is just amazing. That is just the icing on the cake. Working with her during this process of finding my baby has been the most pleasant, wonderful experience of my life. She is by far, amazing. The love she has for this breed, her dogs and pups, and the kind of friendship she has shown me, I couldn't ever have imagined finding that in someone I met online!!!! I highly suggest that if you do not know her, you take the time to get to know her. She is amazing!!! and if you are looking for a great pup, raised in a home, spoiled completely rotten, and loved beyond measure....you need to check her out!!

This whole experience has taught me SOOOOO much...and I just can't say enough about her!!!!

and no, she didn't pay me to say this LOL

Oh Mandee ty so much for all those wonderful compliments!! You made my day. I can't wait to have you hold Tessa in your arms for the first of what I know will be tons of kisses. I am so very happy that we have developed a wonderful friendship. I will miss Tessa like crazy but I just know she will be loved and spoiled with you just as she has been here. I am so chocked up by your post that I am almost speechless.

Deb is great. I wish I had the money to buy Bella, I would meet you guys and pick her up. It is hard to fly cross country with a little puppy. I have done it several times and I have to say the trip I took to Los Angeles was the longest day but I was so happy to meet Adina (trini and Coco's mom). I left my home at 4:30 in the morning and got back after midnight. No time for lunch or anything. But, they had meals on the flight. I have never used American. NorthWest doesn't have meal service and I almost starved to death. I always enjoy my "alone" time after I deliver the puppy. i hope she doesn't run into any delays like I did when i took Toby to Omaha. Weather delayss everywhere but I ended up being only two hours behind. Make sure you post pictures of Deb and Tessa. I can't wait to see.
