Six weeks old...Mountain Cur. (squirrel dog)

Andy dumped him on me today.
His brother breeds them, and gave him this one.
...so I have another dog to take care of that I really don't want.
I don't want to get attached to another dog...ever.

But Brennan was thrilled when Rachel told him I had a puppy.

He is so little...a teeny, tiny little thing right now.



I asked Andy what his name was, and he said he didn't have a name.
So, I named him Blue...because he is so grey he looks blue, and his eyes are blue...so he is "BLUE"!

Wow, Cindy!!!!! Lucky you, he is a DOLL!!!!

AWWWWWWWW - look at that puppy face!!!
Tooooo cute!

Blue is beautiful, Cindy!

Dianna

Perfect name Cindy. Thank you for introducing him.

He lived in a pet crate that was about 14"x8".
It was so little.....
He couldn't even hardly turn around in it.
Lola's travel cage (where he is sleeping right now) is like a mansion compared to where he was before.
But, I also have a place for him in the hallway...so when he comes out of his crate (the door is open) he has about a 4' square area to eat, etc....I'll get a pic of it tomorrow.

I am so not looking forward to housebreaking a puppy.

But Brennan will love him.....he wants a puppy so bad.

.....and you all know that I will fall in love with him and treat him like a baby!

Admit it, Cindy. You already have fallen for the sweet, little thing!

Dianna

I might have fallen a little.....


.......but I didn't want another dog.....ever.
Too much heartbreak.

Cindy Blue is a sweetie so cute!!

And yes,losing a pet can break are hearts, but what we get from them with unconditional love while there with us...Is so worth it:-)

Give blue a big smooch for me:-)

Ohhh he is adorable!!

Ummmmmmmmmm dumb question?????????
Aren't puppies eyes always blue when they're born but when the mature they go brown??
What happens when he's not blue anymore?????
Just curious....

He is Dangggggggg aweful cute though!!

I'm in love already!! he is soooo beautiful.have fun with him, Cindy!

He is lovely Cindy, give him a kiss from me.

I thought the same thing, Weezie...

But since he is so grey he LOOKS blue...then I guess Blue is still a good name.

He's killing me.....I was outside in 6 degree snow this morning at 5am with nothing on but a t-shirt...trying to get him to go to the bathroom.
...not liking this "non-housebroken" puppy situation...but he sure is a sweet little thing.

I'm so scared if I don't keep him penned up he will get hurt...I have about 15 brugmansias, all over the house... ...no place to put them where he can't get to them. So, he has to stay penned up for now at the end of the hallway.

Cindy his name fits him to a T. Not all dogs eyes are always blue when grown had some catawela's (sp) they had one blue eye and one brown eye. He is so pretty. And I know you were in love with him on your first post as it showed through your typing.

Cindy, he is so cute and sweet!!
I know you will love him as you do all creatures!! His name is perfect!!!
Hope we will get to enjoy lots of pictures as he grows up.

Thorn listens to, "I'm Blue" by Eifel 65.

Thorn...I am BLUE my own bad self...from trying to housebreak a 6 week old dog...when there is snow on the ground...and it is cold outside.

We got one inch this morning, then most of it melted, now it is starting to stick again. I had to go to the ER to get some more pain med for my Shingles and when I got out it was snowing like crazy and started to get whitely frosted again.

OMG, blue is the cutest little puppy!

You love him--you know it...who could pass up a little face like that?

Is he playful? Shy?

Very, very cute!

AAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!
How big will he get?
When my landlord got her dog as a puppy she was 'penned' in the kitchen & hall. Now she's all grown up and wont go in the one room that had lots of puppy dangers(maybe her sewing/knitting room ) cause thats where the gate used to be.

What a sweet little baby! I want a Mountain Curr for my next dog. If you look at the info online, they are blessed with the best health of all the dog breeds and live the longest. I bet he has already stolen the rest of your heart

Well Cindy, if you have to have a new puppy, that one sure is cute! Just love his name too!!!

Aaawww he's beautiful. Those eyes are adorable.
