Another Josie Update

We got these pics about a week ago, I put them on facebook but not here. She is looking SO cute and actually looks like a puppy now! We are so excited, still nervous though as well. We pick her up on Sunday, so only 2 days away now! Hopefully it is a smooth transition. We (well more I) have been reading puppy books and did all the shopping of the stuff we need for her. But who knows if we are actually prepared or not, we shall see I guess.

The breeder said she "talks" to them all the time....when I heard this I though, OH BOY! So I am sure we will have some work to do, but hopefully it will all go well. We really want to make sure she is crate trained and get a huge head start on potty training since we are taking her camping in 2 weeks for a few nights with my family. I am sure it will be a lot for her to take in, the only part I am a bit concerned about is when we all go to the beach. Dogs are not allowed on the beach, so we'll have to leave her behind in the crate. Hopefully its not too hot, and she doesn't bark the whole time. Otherwise we'll have to work something out, like take turns staying with her or something. But other than that I am not too worried about it.

We bought an 8 person tent a few weeks ago since we have 3 camping adventures planned (all of which I believe Josie is going on...maybe we'll change our mind after the first trip, haha). I was originally shopping for a 6 person tent, knowing a 4 person one was not big enough for us, stuff, and dog crate. But I found this 8 person tent for a decent deal, much cheaper than most of the 6 person ones I was looking at. So now we have a tent the size of Texas, but oh well.

Well I am sure I will post more pics later on after we pick her up Sunday!
