- I feel pretty good about this and am comfortable with using the service of United. Of course I would prefer to drive there and pick it up - I'd leave tomorrow if I could, but I can't. For one thing, I am not supposed to go above 500' in altitude until my eye has healed, which precludes driving as I would have to go over a 7500' peak on the way. And I have checked breeders closer to Sacramento, but with the fires burning all over the state I would worry about newborn animals near all that smoke and pollution. I've felt very good about the breeder in AZ from the moment I read her website and I'm completely happy with my choice.
Friends have flown puppies from Pennsylvania to Wichita with no problems several times. I'm sure your pup will be fine.
ReplyDeleteThanks, and I'm sure it will all go well. It's a nonstop flight and shouldn't take very long in the air. I bought a doggie bed and a 20# bag of organic puppy kibble at Costco last night but now have to go through the house and make sure everything small and chewable is out of his reach! So many other little items to buy at Petsmart but I'll have fun shopping for them.
DeleteAnd as with small children, you will find all kinds of stuff you didn't realize they could get into. ;>)
ReplyDeleteIt will all come back to me pretty quickly - what I wet through raising a puppy and 4 kids! I got my last dog when she was between 18 mos and 2 yrs, the the lab before her chewed everything he could get his teeth into!
DeleteWhen you get it, post lots of pictures. We are dog lovers and our dogs are a huge part of our family.
ReplyDeleteI plan to take lots of pictures and hope I get some good ones to post.
DeleteI am so excited to see pictures of your new pup. And to hear all about your adventures in puppyhood. Lol
ReplyDeleteJust looking around my house makes me cringe. I don't have much furniture that is worth worrying about, but there are so many things in reach of a nosey puppy that I have a big clean-up and put-away job ahead of me!
DeleteWish there had been a lab puppy at the local shelter. I always feel so sorry for those dogs abandoned or lost. Hope your eye continues to consistently improve.
ReplyDeleteAround here all those pups are snatched up by a lab organization, or a golden retriever org, or same with other breeds. The only dogs at shelters are pit bulls and chihua (I'm not going to try to spell the name, but you know what I mean!). I have always gotten rescue dogs, but for my intended future purposes (assistance dog) I want a pure-bred. By the way, many pit bulls are wonderful dogs with the most friendly and beautiful smiles. Try telling that to an HOA or your neighbors!
