For the first time in three years, it looks like we are getting a puppy again! :) (We were getting one per year, for a while.)

But this time, it's different. We are actually making the puppy. We bred our girl Ziva (MBOSS GCH CH 24kt Esquire's Double Secret Agent) and it was confirmed today that she is pregnant. We will keep a puppy from the litter. And it is bringing back all the wonderful (and horrible, LOL!) feelings about anticipating a new puppy in the house! I can't wait!

Of course, we'll have to deal with needle teeth, biting, chewing, exploration, training, having to have someone home all the time, housebreaking, vaccinations and all the other things that go along with having a new puppy, but I'm super excited about it. So much so, I had to post this thread, even though the puppy is a month from being born.

At least I don't have to fill out any puppy questionnaires this time. :)

It's the first litter doing it right. As many other folks have done, I bred a few litters years ago, then stopped. This is my first litter with my spouse, and the first one putting everything I have learned about good breeding practices into effect. We've been researching this particular breeding for almost two years, and made the best decisions we could, because no breeding is perfect. But we did some deep diving to come up with this breeding as a foundation for what we hope to be a long and successful breeding program.

But all the work on that is done, and now I'm just looking forward to having a new puppy of my own. :)

How exciting! I took a beginner field class w/ several Percy kids who are also taking a spin in the show ring & other venues--talented bunch. Here's to a belly full of healthy pups & an uneventful delivery for mom--what a dream come true for you guys
