A handsome, birdy puppy, an observer, and an all-around nice little
dawg.

I drove up to the breeder again last night, had a last look at them,
turned each out with a pigeon, and decided. I had narrowed it down to
two: Purple has a wonderful sparkle to his character and was very
tempting, but Green presents a well-rounded package, which is what
we're looking for in a Flat-Coat.

I pick him up Friday night, and we're off on a new adventure!

He certainly looks like a round package, but he'll grow out of
it.

You pick him up on Friday? Hmmmm, I can think of a more
appropriate name than Hamish.

Congratulations!

Yes, he's a thinker. At the moment, that's tempered by the nature of a
7.5 week-old puppy:

FLAPflapFlapFlap!

-Hmm. That's cool. Wonder what it is?
-Woah! It's a bird! I'll go get it!
-Play-bow at bird.
-SniffSniffSniffSniff, pickup....
-TrotAround TrotAround...
-Woah! That's a flower! I'll go get it!
-Drop bird, see flower...
-Woah! That's another puppy! I'll go play with it!

etc., etc., etc., etc...

Har. Har. Har. Remind me to get back to you when he goes through his
antelope phase. (Can't remember who it was who used the words "brick
s***house" with reference to my lovely little dog, but when the
hangover wears off, by gum....) He's already growing legs - I think
the Fuzzy Puppy Teddybear stage will last no more than another week or
two.

Yeah, but see, that would be copying, which according to my 8-y-o
daughter, is "like, really dumb."

aw! i love how easily distracted puppies (and some boydogs i
won't mention by name except that it starts with an "E" and
ends in a "T") are. it sounds like Hamish is embracing every
new experience with enthusiasm. what fun!

Pretty boy, Kate. Congrats, and I'm SURE you're going to have tons of
fun with him.
