do you know if petco's stuff in store is about the same price as online? it'd be pretty easy to compare prices that way lol. but like the doggie sweaters were like 5 buck max and at the petco near me it's almost 15... so i think i'm gonna check out their online store too... (i've already got a wishlist on that petedge site! lol) what kind of tool do they use at your work to clip the dogs' nails? yeah, there's a posting (i think in the info section) that says how many postings for how many stars or whatever...

i would think that they are close to price, i think the petco near you is just really expensive, but i will have to check how much things are in the store and online. i would think you save more not online becasue of the shipping but idk. i dont even know if theres a way for me to use my employee discount online? i guess i will have to check that stuff out. oh i know i am so ready. i am really ready for that email from lynn! if i could just get it already, that means that i wont be getting my puppy till november, and by the looks of things, it is going to be mid-end of november grrr yeah i was a lil nervous about it but i could tell you 2 were cool. he is nice, and makes awesome burritos mmm im hungry for dinner now i know what you mean, i just want my little puppy and to go shopping for it! i need to start making list wishes on sites too lol, i think im going to check out that one site again and see what i like

heehee yeah, you should compare prices (if you have time lol that'd probably take a while ) but i'm pretty much in love with petedge! i'd probably order everything right now if i knew her measurements! gosh i'm so curious what she's gonna look like!!! exciting!!! i don't think shipping is that bad online though (if you spend a certain amount they cut it in half, but i never got that expensive... yet... ) ergh! still haven't heard from linda in like over a week!!! i dunno why, it's kinda weird... or i'm weird! rofl i dunno, it's bedtime for me i hope she gets preggo soon! i think i've got another month or so before my pup is born (but i'm an awesome sharer!!! ) i'm starting to second guess the name abby though... i mean, i like it... but i think i'll ask my boyfriend's opinion on names (see if he has a few) so that he doesn't feel left out... lol it's a "family dog" for goodness sakes!

haha yeah i will definently check it out. lol i was looking at the machine that engraves dog tags and one of the guys that works there, asked me if i had made one yet, and i said no, so he gave me 3 tokens to make one lol thats 9 dollars for free! anyway, its a silver bone tag and it says... Erin Eley -Wanted- Bad Dog lol its cute, and on my key chain now lol but yeah i still havnt really checked out that site i keep forgetting so i still have to. i know i wish i had the puppies measurments or even just the puppy right now! i cant wait for that email. and im sure that linda just doesnt always check and respond to every email right away. im sure everything is ok though. yeah we should, there are sooo many cool movies right now! i cant wait hellboy2 the new mummy movie hancock the incredible hulk mama mia the new batman movie step brothers pineapple express swing vote sisterhood of the traveling pants 2 tropic thunder house bunny and i swear im missing something, but those are all of the movies i am looking forward to lol i am a movie freak. i am totally going to cry during batman, i loved heath ledger, he was one of my favorite actors. and thats not his last movie either! he was filmind a movie in europe with JOHNNY DEPP which i love too, and they are going to air his original footage and then do something to finish it without him so it can go one. its sad but i am excited, anyway its bed time for me too, im tired and ugh my feet started hurting before i got off work. i almost worked an extra hour, becasue i worked 9-5 but for some odd rason i thought i was off at but what ever im just glad i got off my feet lol

aw, that's cute! how much are those tags? i didn't know they take tokens lol go check it out! go now! (lol too much peer pressure? ) i'm so excited! and with nathan gone for about a week, i don't really have much else to do besides dwell on it! therefore i check my mail like a zillion time and get sad faces when a reply's still not there (after 5 minutes lol) i hope she sends me lots of pics when they're little teeny puppies!!! sigh... too impatient... do you think the measurements would be that big of a difference from puppy to full grown? cuz they're usually a small dog anyways... would they have to go up a size (collars/harness wise because they adjust... pretty sure the sweaters would have to right?) ? i dunno ooo! when's hellboy2 coming out?! (that's my favorite of those mentioned of course you've seen my decision making on movies... so it's basically up to you ) it's sooo sad! i wonder how they're going to finish that other movie (i haven't heard anything about it) i remember watching a really old movie on tv once and it was just kind of abruptly cut off (but still had credits?) and confused me, but my dad said it was because the main actress had died before it was done. don't remember who it was, but kinda weird they still put it out IMO...

yeah its weird, i think they said something about other actors finishing the roll or using a computer or idk exactly but im excited to know when they do. yeah i dunno about sizes and what not, i suppose it is something to ask the breeder and they might know. haha i am just as indecisive as ever, but i want to eventually see them all, maybe not all in theaters but i can tell what is a theater movie and what isnt. idk when hellboy2 comes out, i wanna say this friday or next or sometime really really soon lol whered nate go?

i found out that my pup's dad is a tan/white but also has some chocolate in him too. and she said they could also be black tris. (so basically anything lol) here's a picture of the dad. she said it's not the best, but it's the only picture she had. and he's a champion also. um... she said that she thinks the pups will be about 12-15 lbs. i guess the owner of the male also has 2 others that are interrested in these pups, she's going to ask to see what gender they were wanting (if specific because i'm nosey ) and she said she will be keeping top pick after the pat hastings evaluation also. but i'm thinking my odds are still pretty good. i hope she has lots of puppies!!! :woot:

haha sorry i have been so busy working lol. so yeah i am hella excited. shes actually breeding flame this week and she is going to let me know when and how it goes. the petco i work at is in covington but i work in the grooming salon so im never on the floor, but maybe next weekend we can have a little shopping date and look at some petco stuff. maybe you wanna come down here this time and we could see a movie and shop some. that be fun! :p let me know what you think. i think you have a good chance and i really hope you get a little girl! what happened if you couldnt? would you go and try to get another breeder or just be so impatient and not be able to take it like me lol i read part of the canidae thing, yeah i dunno if i still wanna fee that. i still dont know what i want to feed any more, crap too many decisions lol i cant wait to hear that flame is pregenant! and im so happy for you too! so becasue of all that info you just said, does that mean she finally got in touch with you? wow you will never guess what i did! you know how i always talk about how i can work the system. well apparently when i filled my taxes something happened and i wasnt filled aas a dependent on my parents so we had to fill another thing out to fix it all, but in the process since i made more than 3,000 in the year 2007 and they thought i was an independent, they gave me 300 dollars that since i was a dependent, i should have gotten that money, n0o one should have. so i guess all of this means that i got 300 dollars free from the irs! (we have a friend that does taxes) she said the money that it would cost to sort it all out and have me pay 300 dollars back, would be too expensice to do and too much of a hassle, so i got 300 dollars free from the irs haha wow i am stunned but that s so cool i dont know if you followed all of that but yeah its sweet lol

ooo! that sounds fun, i'm actually gonna be working this weekend though and my schedual's all funky this week :anger: i think the days off next week are gonna be fri, sat but my parents and sister are going to come visit so maybe we can hang out in a few weeks lol you'll have to let me know how your schedual is k? big fun! i think my chances are pretty good for getting a girl. but i think i'm pretty headstrong about it though, i mean, i'm going to be paying good money so i should get what i want right? and it's not like they're the only ones that will be having pups. so if i can't get a female from her, i think i would just go elsewhere... but i don't think it should be a problem so basically she got in touch with me lol. just been busy i guess, she said she accidentally misplaced my email with her cattle dog buyers? oh well but yeah, i'm WAY excited! i hope she sends pictures, she said that she should start "showing" soon haha yeah, wellness core seemed to be of better quality and about the same price as canidae (little more). hopefully they don't change too! lol it takes forever to decide what to change to. and the petstore i can get it from will give me samples to try to see what she likes hooray! there were lots of good brands there too. i was also still wondering about a crate. because i can buy a roof for my ex-pen and turn it into a 16 sq ft kennel so i think i might do that instead? we'll see i guess, i still have a ways to wait hahaha too excited :woot: dang! that's awesome! lol you didn't even have to really do anything!

my minnie has her tail, and i think she looks cute with it, sadie was born without one but she is a mix breed corgi so its okay, the breeder i "saved" minnie from wan't willing to put any money into minnie because she was not to his standard, she has a under bite, big deal it just looks like she is smileing all the time :-). anyway i just wanted to say if you find one you fall in love with, don't worry about there tail, everyone has said she looks much cutier with it. if i know how to put a picture with this i would show you. good luck ratties are a handful but worth every minute of it in the end. best advice i can give is socailize and crate train!

oh i love pictures! yeah, i like tails either way, but i think my breeder is docking them. she also shows her dogs so i won't be able to choose which one i want until after she gets them evaluated because she will be keeping the top pick which i don't mind because i don't show animals, i'm just so impatient i wanna pick her out now! hahaha i'm so excited to finally get my puppy after so long of a wait, i'll definately post photos when i get them
