    Just wanted to introduce myself! My name is Ashley and I will be bringing home our new addition in 2.5 weeks or so, a little girl my eldest daughter has named Annabelle Snow(they are purebred white lab so she felt snow was a must!). I have two children, a 6 year old and a 1.5 year old so things are going to be crazy for awhile but I'm a stay at home Mom and am committed to making this work. I grew up with labs as a small child as well so I know how wonderful this breed is with kids. I have been reading the forum for the last 2 weeks and have the Happy Puppy Handbook on kindle. We get to pick out our puppy this weekend! Oh the nerves. I just wanted to introduce myself! I'm sure I will be posting a lot soon! Nice to "meet" you all :)

    exciting news on getting a new puppy, and such a unique name for a dog (coming from a fellow annabelle human). Hope you have fun on the forum and with your soon to be new puppy.

    Have lots of fun picking out your perfect pup next weekend :)

    You don't have to wait until you have picked her up.
    We are puppy picture hungry. A picture of the whole litter would do.
    We are all good distant foster mum and dads ;)

    Hi
    And welcome. We have just got our new pup izzy she is 8 weeks and we collected her last Wednesday. I have 3 children 6,3 and 10 mths. And my god it is hard work. My DP gas been off work but is due back tomorrow and I am dreading it. My eldest is great with her and so helpful. I just keep telling myself it's not forever lol. Good luck picking your pup. The puppy book is great invest in a crate they are brilliant. Also bring a blanket with you leave it there and when you are collecting pup bring the blanket with you. We did and it was the best thing ever.
