Went to see Buffy today
« Reply #60 on: March 16, 2007, 01:56:55 PM »
Had an email from Buffy's lovely breeder last night.  She had taken the pups outside in the garden as it was so warm and she said Buffy is coming along really well.  She cant wait to show her off to us on Sunday when we go back to visit.  She said Buffy's coat is really starting to grow as well, and her ears are getting longer too!
Will obviously update with pix after Sunday's visit, but I am just sooooooo excited.
I still feel a bit guilty cos we are counting the days on family calendar until we collect her - but poor old Trev is having surgery on his hand a few days before we go and get Buffy, so it is a constant reminder of how long till his op - but he is very good about it.  (Hoping the op will cure severe pain he has had for a very long time now)
Penny,   Dexter (cavalier x poodle), Alfie (Whippet cross)  and  Maximus the cocker spaniel!!

I remember when we visited Skye at the weekends before we brought her home.  You must be very excited and proud.

We left a little later than last week and got stuck in horrendous traffic - but it was well worth it.
She has grown so much in the past week and is really confident.  Our oldest son (aged 19) dragged himself out of his bed and came along too - and thinks she is "pretty sweet"  - which is huge praise from him! :005:
We took her a rag tuggy toy for her and her siblings to play with, and when we collect her (in 2 1/2 weeks time!) the breeder will give us a blanket as well so she has familiar smells to bring home with her.
She was so proud of her new toy, and trotted round with it for ages - her tail was wagging so fast, she looked ready for take off!  Dominic (age 11) was on the floor again, and all the puppies were climbing over him so he had a great time.
I know 1 1/2 hours drive each way for a 30 minute cuddle takes up a lot of our day, but we will visit one more time next Sunday when and then it will be a long 10 days until we go and collect her on Wednesday 4th April, so need to store up lots of hugs next weekend.
Took loads of pix, and here are 4 of the best....

The sister she is playing with her new tug is called Treacle, and also really sweet (of course they are all gorgeous!)
She was the first one to be picked from the litter, and the breeder was tempted to keep her but decided not to!

Ask not what your cocker can do for you, but ask what you can do for your cocker!!

Hi, both Buffy and treacle are just so cute!  :luv:  OH just came in to be nosy and I showed him the pictures as when I first went to see Gracie I had to go on my own and she was the same age/size as Buffy is now. He smiled - which means he thinks Buffy is gorgeous too!

I'm so excited for you and can't wait for the updates when she becomes part of your family  :D
