We went to view this litter of 9 French Bulldog puppies on Sunday morning.
We took Connor with us, and left the two girls at home.
It would have been totally chaotic with all three kids and nine puppies we were not allowed to touch.
I would have been so busy slapping little hands that I would not have had a chance just to sit in the drool and grunts that are French Bulldogs.
Oh my giddy aunt, my heart skipped a beat. I gasped what I saw this lot. I do think puppies are cuter than children … they just are ….
I like puppies as much as the next person, but freak, there were nine little monkeys here and I could so easily have snatched one and put him in my camera bag.
The mother was Hannah, but what was even more divine is that there was a puppy from her first litter, and she was a brindle bitch and just under 18 months – she was absolutely divine.
The litter is 4 weeks old. The viewing is so that we could be introduced to the breeder and they could make a decision we were special enough to take home one of these special puppies in about 6 weeks.
It was a bit like going to a popularity contest with a few dozen people and not sure exactly what the criteria was for the selection. But still hoping that what ever it was you got chose.
You want to be polite to the other people there viewing, but you realise they are direct competition.
Just like that.
I have to go so I can stare at my cell phone and wait for it to ring!! Breeder please call me and tell me I can choose a puppy …. please call ….. please call

Scared & Imperfect Mother
/ November 8, 2011quick question, but is Jackson not going to be bigger than this little adorable puppy?
reluctantmom
/ November 8, 2011He will be. He will be about 4 times the puppies size, I am hoping that Jackson makes friends with said puppy versus sitting on a high perch and taunting him. Jackson can hold his ground. I am much more attached to Jackson since he stopped bringing dead and semi-dead animals into the house ….
