We're getting a puppy!
« on: June 12, 2015, 09:33:11 pm »
So excited and a little nervous  :)

We've just bought a Welsh Cardigan Corgi dog pup. He's six weeks old but we won't be getting him until early August. He's one of six; two bitches and four dogs. The lady who bred him sounds lovely. She's always had corgis as pets and decided to take one litter from her lovely bitch. Both parents are all health checked, pups are registered but we won't be either breeding or showing.

We need a name now. Dan likes Bryn - I do too but I can't get Uncle Bryn from "Gavin and Stacey" our my mind (especially since we live in Barry  :eyelashes: )
