How did you get the pictures to work, Dorothy? I watched the video Emma sent but still can't get it to work either.
Emma wrote: "How old was she when you got her?"8 weeks plus 2 days. (She was 8 weeks on a Saturday and we got her the Monday after that.)
Dorothy wrote: "Emma wrote: "How old was she when you got her?"8 weeks plus 2 days. (She was 8 weeks on a Saturday and we got her the Monday after that.)"
Ohh okay! I got Mandie when she was a day before 8 weeks.
I probably would never have known about her if it hadn't been for her umbilical hernia. That's the reason she wasn't sold out before.
Dorothy wrote: "I probably would never have known about her if it hadn't been for her umbilical hernia. That's the reason she wasn't sold out before."Ahhh yes. We've had a lot of that with our business.

Ah, I see. I would gladly have gotten her as soon as she was 8 weeks, but we had to wait until the day before we were heading home. (We had taken an Amish family down for a funeral and my father and I were staying with my aunt. There was no way to keep her in my aunt's house, because her dog's [well, actually my cousin's dogs] don't like little dogs...think they're rodents, or something. So to minimize how long she would have to stay in a crate in the car, we got her the day before we would be heading back, that way it would just be the one night she'd be alone.)

It doesn't make much sense why it would decrease their value. It causes no pain or problems, it's just a little bump. But if it hadn't, we wouldn't have been able to afford her, so there's that!

Oh okay. It was nice getting Mandie as early as we did. I had to wait 5 weeks till we could get her! π± Pure torture!! π

I know! We've even had the vet tell us it's no big deal. We haven't had any problem selling puppies with them, and we usually have at least one in each litter that has one. I'm glad you were able to get her because of that though! π

Yeah it's pretty tricky. π

See, that's where its difficult, on my drop-down menu, there is no image address, just link address. :/

Hannah, are you using a picture that has been posted somewhere before?
Yes, all that's showing up is "share image", "save image", or "copy".
Hannah wrote: "Yes, all that's showing up is "share image", "save image", or "copy"."Hmmm that's weird. π€
It may just be my computer. Sometimes it's just plain old wonky.
Hannah wrote: "It may just be my computer. Sometimes it's just plain old wonky."I've been thinking and thinking and I can't figure out why it won't work! Well, the pro's coming back tomorrow, so maybe she can help. π π

Hahaha, oh joy!! The group's not the same without Meg anyway!
The "Pro" won't be on until Tuesday, though, most likely.
OH YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to push more buttons on my computer in order to find the address.Oh by the way, this is Gabby. XD
Hannah wrote: "OH YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to push more buttons on my computer in order to find the address.Oh by the way, this is Gabby. XD"
Oh, Gabby is so cute! I can see why you couldn't resist her!
HAHA, thanks! She is a cutie - some day I'd love to own my own goats, but for now stuffed works! Besides, it doesn't stink.
Nice to finally meet you Gabby! *shakes hand*
Gabby says BBBBBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAA back.
Yayyy!!! You did it! βAnd I agree Gabby is adorable! π π
Dorothy wrote: "The "Pro" won't be on until Tuesday, though, most likely."Oh how sad! Was she delayed on her trip?
Hannah wrote: "OH YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to push more buttons on my computer in order to find the address.Oh by the way, this is Gabby. XD"
Oh, I love Gabby! She's so cute! I have a stuffed polar bear who wears earmuffs, so I named her Muffy! My mom gave her to me a couple of years ago when I was in the hospital. Stuffed toys have always been my favorite...I still love them, even at the age of 58!

I still have a stuffed cat that I've had since I was little. π

No, they're getting back really late Monday night or in the wee hours of Tuesday morning, which was originally the plan. She'll just be too tired to get on until daytime sometime Tuesday.
When I have been forgiven for my last quiz question, I have another one to post. A decent, fun one this time! Let me know when I can enter the quiz circle again!Pam

Ahh yes. Definitely makes sense. π
I wish I could post a picture of how Mandie looks right now. I'm sitting on the floor with her, and she's just shaking and giving me the most pitiful look! Her time is coming fast...

She is a beautiful dog.
My other favorite is the one where she is
chasing the ball, it makes me want to play
with her.πΎ
