Did I have Blaze up at your place? I thought Miya was up there with me.

Blaze is a champ. He doesn't get out hunting too much anymore. His owner was kenneled.

It was Blaze. The owner was kenneled the day he let the girlfriend name the dog.

Blaze was great, guessing be missed but Uncle Nershi :-)

This is coming up again pretty strongly because with my sister having a baby and another sister pregnant...GF has baby/wedding fever. She knows with work being messed up right now I'm not getting married or having a kid within the next year for sure. She misses having a pet, and all the major things in life she wants to accomplish together are pretty much on hold. A hunting dog would be number 3 on her list behind marriage and having a kid...so I may cave. Plus it does away with buying useless gifts for each other for Christmas if we can both agree it's a Christmas present to each other .

She's been feverishly searching the interwebs last 2 days

Dude, that's stellar!

Have fun. I'm feeling the need. Suddenly had a German wire hair pop up in my thoughts. But will likely be a yellow lab. Going to be a "line in the Sand conversation" with the wife.

Thanks, we'll see wish me luck it turns out ok haha. I bit more "sudden" than how I typically like to make major decisions. But...the price was right, they are very active on social media and interacting with their community, aren't shy at posting pics/vids of their puppies and their surroundings on social media. Have a whole questionnaire you fill out to be considered to buy a pup. Sure some of that can be "feel good" measures. But everything seems decent about the place so I'm hopeful it's at least a right start...we'll see what he's like and how he takes to training

“If you want a puppy, ask for a baby brother”

We’re all feeling the want of a puppy in this house... will be interesting to see if we cave in 2019 or wait 2 more years as planned.
