My partner, Josh and myself have been together for 2 and a half years, we moved in together 2 years ago, and moved into our property with a garden just over a month ago :) We moved so we could get a puppy!
Anyway, we spent months and months choosing which breed type etc. We eventually decided on a whippet as we felt it would suit out lifestyle. I work full-time and Josh is at Uni full-time, which means he goes in for lectures one day a week! The cheek!
We thought it would be a great time as he is here the majority of the time, and as we know a puppy is practically a full-time job! Then we swap over when I get home and I look after him in the evening.
We looked and looked for a breeder and eventually found ours. They were about an hour and a half away, and they had some puppies born and told us they would be ready in a few weeks and we could go and look at them. So off we went the next day.
They were all lovely looking, although slept the majority of the time. They were in the study of the house and we in a secure pen. It looked very clean, although didn't have a bed, but I didn't actually notice this until we picked him up...
We eventually picked one that chewed my ear and wagged his tail at us! And we named him Merlin. He was special as had a cute little crest on his chest and the rest were pure blue.
After we'd chosen we put down the deposit and then saw him the next week, then the week after we had family coming over, and the one after that we picked him up, and so our story had begins!
This is him on our first visit.
Aww, he has grown up so much now. He looked all sweet and innocent then .... Not that he doesnt now!
