well ok not really a surprise cuz he gave the ok...but omg i just bought him his bulldog...i am so scared though cuz i went through a family that only has one litter a year..they seem real but on puppy find everyone is warning us up here about scams..but the lady gave me her address and phone number..they have a website and she said if i wanted to, i could pick him up but it is over 7 hours away so i decided not to..plus she pays for shipping so why not just drive the hour to the airport to pick him up...
other than the scam worry though, i am so happy..he is exactly what my dh wanted..we have been looking at him for about a month now hoping the lady didn't sell him..we had to wait for our taxes to come in before we could buy him. so he is 14 wks old and white with a few brindle patches.comes with full registration, his shots are up to date and he has a 1 year health guarentee. plus they have already started the potty training..i am supposed to find out today when i will get him...i am hoping he gets here before dh gets home but if not then he can just go with me to pick him up..
but girls please just say a prayer that this is not a scam...i spent alot of money on this dog because it was what dh wanted(well by breed standards,the dog was cheap) but i have a hard time giving up money like that...
oh but here is a pic of him...i think he is so ugly that he is cute..and he is going through the awkward puppy stage right now..

Aww what a cute Bully!!! (L)
I wanted one sooo bad but couldn't find anything reasonable ($2 grand was too much for us...)so Paul and I put it on the back burner which is good now. Cause we would have fought tooth and nail over puppy custody lol

thanks girls...
cori- i paid $1500 for mine and just about died...it is worth it in the end cuz the look on bryan's face when he sees him willl be great...
shoot the lady wanted to send him to me today but i am picking him up on monday from the airport..i am so excited...i wanted to get him today but if i did i wouldn't have made it back in time for the g2g so i asked her to change it...i am just glad he will be here before dh gets home

What a cutie! There's a bulldog in the obedience class I take my dog to and he's so cute. His name is Harley. How sweet of you to get him for your dh!

OMG he is so freaking cute! You already picked him up, right? How's it going with him? Where are the new pictures??

He is cute!! Its always a risk you take with getting from a breeder thats not in the area you are in...You could have asked for reference (ie other clients) but she seems to be real.

Good Luck!

I'll probably take sunny to this place http://www.guiding-hands.com/ I talked to the owner on the phone and he sounded like a great guy and as if he knows what he is doing. They take $65 for their basic obedience class which sounds pretty reasonable to me. It's a 6 week class.
