    Wow! That's nearly as big as Brogan was! I can't believe that little tadpole I saw in December is 30kg! :eek:

    Don't you know Mollie IS the new puppy? Ergo the teddy is for HER? :D

    Poor baby, she's in for a rude awakening tomorrow!

    We still don't know whether Mollie has passed her x-rays yet, but we are off on holiday tomorrow so her bag is packed in case she's called up while we are away.

    She's off with Keir to stay with another puppy walker. They'll have great fun and are best mates already.

    Go well gorgeous girl xx

    (She has her Lambie with her to spread the Lambie network wherever she goes!)

    Hugs to you, Mags. :hug:

    That must be very difficult not knowing if you will be picking up one puppy or two. :( I know you are tough and accept the heartache as part of the amazing gift you are giving, but that can't make it any easier.

    Whenever she goes on to her next step, she will handle it like a champ thanks to you and the foundation you've given her.

    I have news about Mollie - Guide Dogs have decided to take Mollie’s sister as a Brood Bitch instead of Mollie as she had slightly better hip scores, 'tho they were very close.

    So the thread title has changed as Mollie will now go to Big School and, hopefully become a Guide Dog. Her spay is due in October.

    The good news is that we'll get to keep the lovely girl until November. Keir will be VERY pleased!

    Oh, that is good news, Mags! You can enjoy her a while longer plus all of your hard work in training her will mean that she will go on to be a wonderful guide dog companion. From what you've said about her, she will do a great job in Big School and really thrive as a working dog. :)
