Getting silly now!

Ok I think I might be ready for the funny farm.

I've only just met the breeder of my future pup and confirmed when the pups might be born (spring/summer next year) and yet I find myself buying things for a dog that I probably won't get for another 8 months!

Am I the only one like this? So far I've got a puppy nylabone, extending lead and am now on the hunt for a 3 foot dog crate!

Total madness, take me away before I do something even sillier!

I think that's normal But then maybe that just means I'm mad too....
8 months isn't that long. I'd be very excited and buying allsorts too.
You can never be too prepared

To be honest Emma I think your quite normal. What happened to us was that we started getting things together for when we made our minds up and once the crate and pen were ordered I sneakily went and reserved our pup!! have done the same again, hubby gonna kill me! oh well.

Ah that's a relief then, that means I'm either sane or you're all as mad as me!

Either way I win both times! :smt043

Nat I really am trying to save things til I'm at Crufts, then I really am gonna go mad!

I'll just get little things now and save the big thngs til later! Like a little build up all of my own.

Honest.

Hi Rip, seems like we err on madness - we did the same here too

I think it's a sign of a good owner
