I'm already awake because I'm so excited, but I have to spend the day in work before I can go get him 🙁

🙂 new pup day is ace.

Had our little one for just over a month now. Enjoy it, they grow up so fast. She's at my sis's this weekend, we're away at a wedding - missing her!

Oh and crates are brill. She loves hers, so easy to take her places.

Daaawwwwwwwwww.

Puppies are awesome. So are full-size dogs, just slightly less cute; unless they have a novelty-sized stick, of course :mrgreen:

He slept the whole night through in his crate without any whining or barking 😀

Most important thing for me, is get signed up to your nearest Puppy School. No matter what people tell you, or how good you think you are as a dog handler, a good trainer will show you where you can improve your communication with your dog.

We started Rickon training at 9 weeks, 2 hours a day, 7 days a week plus 2 extra hours on Tuesday and Thursday. For 18 months.

Put the effort in up front, and they're easy when they get older. 🙂

Also... is that not a Lab X Collie cross? Could just be the photo, but the head and hind looks too big.

As far as I know he's all collie, not a pedigree or anything though so may have some lab in him.

He's booked in at the vets and I will look at classes.

Stop it now or I'll be round to nab him off you .... 😀 failing that some regularly timed 'growing up' pics would be lovely for those of who can't have a mutt so have to live vicariously through threads like this ...awww look how snuggly he looks!
