    A month is gonna seem like such a long time. Cherish your sleep whilst you can. :)

    Thanks Barbara!

    Just a quick question, am I right in thinking the puppies injections should be very shortly after I get him home at 8 weeks, then it's second at 11/12 weeks along with it's microchip and worming/flea treatment?

    Many thanks :)

    Hi again, yes his first vacs should be as soon as he arrives and usually, the second ones are aprox two weeks later along with the microchip etc .

    Ok, thanks for the info. I'll take him up to my local vet shortly after we get him home to make the appointments etc. It's so right what people say about the time dragging...it's only been 48 hours and it seems like ages since we saw him! :(

    Awesome! We pick him up 3 weeks on Sunday so very similar time. I've got the Monday and Wednesday after that off, and mum works par time from home so she is chief puppy carer. Tempted to add to the 2 days I already have off so I can spend some more time with the little guy! 8)

    Hi Mark and Monty from Lisa and Simba (10 month choc labX)....your pup is gorgeous and fluffy and scrumptious!!! It feels overwhelming when you first bring him home but you will quickly wonder how you ever did without him. :)

    Hello!

    Just had an email from the breeder with an update on Monty. He's doing really well, and loves water more than any other pup in the litter!

    ...good job as we live by the sea!

    Hope everyone is well!

    Mark :)

    Say goodbye to clean floors then... ;D

    It's nice that they keep you up to date on little things, I like that.
