Congrats! Those dogs are really good looking

I put a deposit down on the weekend for a lab. Not conceived yet, but should be any day now.

Tremendous! I am so glad it worked out like that for you. What a beautiful girl and I KNOW beyond any shadow of a doubt that your pup comes from EXCEPTIONAL bloodlines. I bet the girls are tickled pink The breeder you chose is very good and his dogs are great.

I am glad that things came together for you.. Great looking pup, and given the bloodlines, she has the potential to be an exceptional hunting dog, as well as a wonderful pet.

Not one of my 3 shorthairs replaced any memories of the previous one, any dog you get will remind you of the ones before them but the sadness fades to the fun memories. 4th year since my 16 yr old GSP went to be with the other 2.

I hope to get my 4th GSP pup this year. I will always be a GSP fan, they are such a good family dog and fun to have around. Don't feel guilty if you replace the loved one with another imo.

I got a pup!!!


Last time I was talking to Hugh Slaney the breeder of Dutch Draahthar from Manitoba , all pups had already found their homes .
So I left him a message that I 'll be really looking forward to get one of his pup in case of a short notice cancelation.

Couple of weeks ago Hugh sent me email asking if I found the pup?
I replied that NO.
Then he replied that there was a short notice cancelation by another gent on a nice female pup.

I said that I will reserve it right away , even at the beginning I was thinking about a boy .

There were another email exchanges , but I made it very clear that I want this girl and she is really expected in our house!

She came on a May 21st from Manitoba and we picked her up from Calgary airport on Sunday.

Beautiful puppy, we love her sooo much!

I was in the same boat as you 6 yrs ago, mentioned it on here, got 4 PM's from folk in Brooks about an accidental litter of labs down there. Worked out to be the best question I ever asked around here. The timing was right, got him out on a few hunts that fall, never looked back since. Glad it worked out for you.
