[QUOTE="Lannie, post: 1750820, member: 8202"] Hmmm... so after a long conversation between hubby and myself, we've decided to go ahead and get another Akbash pup (male) now, rather than waiting until the older dog leaves us. We thought if we waited, and weren't able to get another puppy right away after Jasper went, Maggie would pine and mope (like Jasper did when he lost HIS partner) and not be able to do her job. And this way, Jasper can help train the new puppy, too. Since our livestock load is at its lowest-ever point right now (just one heifer, one horse, a few roosters and a flock of guineas), I was thinking it would be a good time to have a puppy. There won't be much he can get in trouble for (except raiding the trash bags in the barn, LOL!), and by next year, when the cow calves and I get more chickens, he SHOULD be old enough to mostly behave himself. Should be. ;) So I called the lady I got Maggie from and she has three male pups from a recent litter that are ready to go right now. The timing couldn't be more perfect, so we're going over on Sunday afternoon to pick up Conan. I've already ordered him a Tough Boy collar (like Maggie's pink one) in blue, but it'll be a while before he grows into it. For now, he'll have to slog along in an adjustable nylon collar, LOL! Pictures when he gets home. :) [/QUOTE]
