Actually, I think she has my eyes.:D:D:D:D:D:D:p:p;)


Can't wait for more

Love,
Addy

You're nuts, Addy! Hogging all the windows, squirming the WHOLE trip and now you think Bailey looks like you?! nah....look at those little ears and perfect mouth not to mention that gorgeous hair! And she is SO SMART! She is just like meeeeee!!!! :D:D

Next thing I know, Carrol will be claiming she had something to do with Bailey's tiny waist. :rolleyes:

Ya'll are both nuts.....and I love ya dearly for it!

Susan, she is a DOLL! I love that she is so teeny! I have become quite taken with teeny tiny babies lately. ;) I am so glad you made it home safely with your precious cargo. Can't wait for all the details!

And, seriously, next trip can we put Addy and Carrol in the trunk? I was so good and so quiet but they were brats! Addy squirmed the whole time and Carrol would breath on me! :eek: :p:p

Hugs to all,
Leslie

Welcome home, sweet Bailey!!!!!!

:DLol, lol, lol, lol!!!!!:D

"Next" time??????? If there comes a next time I think I will fly down and bring her back via an airplane....seriously.
But!-it was wonderful and very helpful to have all that one-on-one time on the trip back. We both seem to have bonded. She is getting more secure each minute and seems to, at least for now, know to tinkle outside.
The eating isn't where I'd like to see it, but I suppose 3 lbs doesn't need a whole lot. She's doing fine with drinking water.
I'll have to do this is bits and pieces, or I'd be on here forever. I think she has springs in her back feet. She looks like she bounces from point A to point B!:) She walks so proudly. She is beginning to show signs of knowing her name. The only "problem" so far is that she is literally right under our feet. No stepping on so far. Her little legs seems so fragile and I sure don't want to hurt her.....in ANY way.
Still not a sound out of her. I have no idea what her voice sounds like. She has had visitors today and seems to handle company pretty well.
Ryan and I just returned from trying to find a sweater to buy for her, but we had zero luck. I may just order one online. Might be easier and quicker.
When we arrived home, both of my calves and feet were horribly swollen. :eek: Like triple their normal size. :eek::eek: I know it was from post surgery and just sitting in the car for so long. When I went to bed, it started to drain out and I was up every 2 hours to go to the bathroom. Each time I got up, I took her out. She looked at me when I placed her on the grass. I said "tinkle" and she did!:) When I put her in her box last night, she looked up at me for a minute or two, then curled up.

We have pine needles for mulch and she loves to pick up one or two and shake her head madly. :) She is about 1/2 the size I expected her to be. The video was deceiving.
Okay-let's start from the beginning....at the kennel. When we got there, a mom and her son were picking up Bailey's brother. I did not know he had been selected. He is about 25% larger than Bailey. He was mostly black....and VERY lively. They named him "Sport." (I hope no one here has named a dog "Sport." ) What a lame name...........so very unimaginative. I can tell they do not have friends the caliber of mine!!;);)
Then they brought out "Bailey." She had no tan markings. She did not have "her" face. I asked the gal what happened to the tan hair....her answer......"I guess it just fell out." YIKES!!!! WHAT KIND OF AN ANSWER IS THAT???!!!!! I asked if they were sure this was Bailey...the gal said she would check. So I sat down with this really cute little pup for about five minutes. I could have taken her home in a nano-second. If Bob had said...maybe we should get two, I would have been right there! Then I looked over and here came this gal with Bailey in here arms. I KNEW it was Bailey. So we got to know her a bit and they brought her packet of information. I don't remember if I thought something was wrong there....but we learned they brought the wrong packet. (Can this place do anything right???) So we double checked the puppy and the packet to make sure they finally had it all right.
Next-the gal at the desk told me that all the pictures I get for Bailey will be free. (OKAY!!) Not long after that, the owner came out. I knew it was her from the website. She introduced herself. I made sure she knew they brought out the wrong puppy and then the wrong packet. (I wonder how often this happens? If I had not questioned it being Bailey, I would just be going home with Red Dot and never the wiser.)
Anyway-the owner told me to order all the pictures I wanted. Whatever sizes I wanted. I am to let her know what I want and it will all be free to me. I still pay for the sitting fee ($50) but that's okay with me. By the time we got out of there, we had a free extra leash, a free extra collar, a free tube of appetite inducer....and the promise of free pictures! It made me feel much better about the place.
I'm going to stop here for now.:( More to come, very soon.:)

Love,
Susan

Where's Sas? Did she not go on the trip? Is she mad because she didn't have a window seat on the way down? Did she get car sick and have to stay at the truck stop?

ALSO-Bailey looks just like ME!!! -
Susan

Ha! I'm right here ;) I never got on board...don't do well with yelling sibblings on the backseat :p I'm a bit of a recluse, I like my personal space and private time...and no such thing during that trip so I stayed right here ;)

Bailey is just unbelievably cute! And I am truly very happy for you..and her :)

One thing, wich I'm sure you know...but I read they gave you a free collar amongst other things. Just don't use it :eek: Bailey should only be wearing harnesses and never a collar :)

Give her a cuddle from us,

Saskia and Yunah :)

Hey, Addy & Leslie,

Now Mom says Bailey looks like HER!! I think Mom has abandoned us and likes Bailey best:(:(:(. Next thing you know, we will be sleeping in the basement with nothing but bread and water (forget the water - Bailey has the water dish!)
What to do? Oh, what to do?

Carrol, where have you been, girl, we already are living in the basement cause Bailey got our room:eek:

Leslie's looking for the number of that trucker, he was heading north.

I AM NOT babysitting!!!!!! Though I have to admit Bailey sure is a sweetie pie and I still think she has my eyes.



Oh Susan, I hope your foot is better. Puppy breath kisses for all:D

Love ya,
Addy

Oh Susan,

What an adventure....:p The girls have all been boogers and hogged all the room that's why I got off the bus. Good thing they are in the basement now---hahahaha!!!

She is so cute!! What I would give to have those puppy eyes staring up at me and then curl up and go to sleep----sooooo cute. I will take puppy breath any day!!!!:D:D

I hope you have recovered from the trip and not hurting so much!!!

Oh guys,
The house has NO basement. WHERE ARE YOU??!! Surely not in the crawl space??!!
People talk of puppy breath....I don't know what that is but neighbors have told us she does have it and they love it. I will do some investigating on that.
Feet are much better today, but still puffed up.
Bob just came upstairs with Bailey-they went to bed and Bob could not get Bailey to stay in the box......heh, heh, heh. So she is right here with me and we are going to try online to find a sweater small enough.
More tomorrow,
Susan

NO BASEMENT????????? ADDY, IF WE THOUGHT WE WERE IN THE BASEMENT THEN WHERE ARE WE?????:confused:
I CAN"T SEE! I CAN"T SEE! HELP...........Oh, I have my eyes closed:o
OK, guys, we need a plan.
Leslie, where's the trucker?
How come Sas didn't have to go on that trip but showed up for the good stuff. And she still has her own room. Hmmmm..............:rolleyes:
Addy, enough with the baby breath, let's get rollin':cool:

Bailey, we love you and can't wait til you're old enough to join the gang. xxxooo
