I'll let Kim fill in the details later (I'm sure she will) but she's bringing home a GSD puppy tonight that someone in one of her classes rescued from an abusive neighbor and can't keep. Showa and Brady are here, so it'll be three crazy pups in an area that's a little small...any ideas on how I should prepare the place before she gets here?

How old is this puppy? That will help me help you figure out how to prepare your house...

And congratulations!!! This puppy is so lucky to have come into your care...keep us updated with info and pictures!

Are you guys planning on doing raw with this one as well?

I think Kim said 3 to 4 months. I really don't know much info other than that, and the situation the dog came from. Oh, and that she's a little mouthy and isn't potty trained. A guy Kim works with said he would ask his wife if she was OK with them taking it, because he's always wanted a GSD, but he said that he already has tons of dogs and his wife doesn't want another one. If she says yes, the pup will go to them, but if not Kim said we'll be keeping her. Either way we'll probably have her for a minimum of a week, I would think. I'm sure if we do keep her we'll go raw. It wouldn't make any sense to feed her anything else, especially since we already have the freezer and the meats.
Here's a picture Kim just texted me...she IS adorable. :biggrin:

We were discussing that. Her previous temporary parent named her Samantha, but neither of us really like that name for her. I suggested Lauren or Lara, but I'm wishy-washy on them and Kim doesn't like them. We've been calling her "girl", "woman" and "female" so far. haha Any suggestions?
Rabbit?
Just the first thing I thought of when i saw those ears :)

So we've sorta narrowed it down between Pandora, Ares, Layla, Lauren and Lotus. We're kind of leaning toward Ares. Thoughts/ideas?
Hands down Pandora. Panda for short. That would be perfect!!!

Sleeping on it, but it's between Ares and Pandora. :smile:
Aww! She's sssooooo cute! My husband was sitting here as I scrolled to the pic, and he (like I did) actually thought it was Ania!! Right down to the leash.

As far as the name, I vote for Ares! :wink:

I like Pandora or Panda too. She is plain gorgeous, what a sweetheart. Her eyes look really bright and intelligent too - she's going to be trouble! :biggrin:

Panda's a great shortname idea...I sorta prefer Pandora over Ares, but Pandora seemed kinda long.

Thanks, way to confuse the vote...hahaha :wink: I'm torn, because I really do like Ares too. :confused:

haha...so far the only trouble she's given us is that she's not potty trained. It's only been one night though. lol :wink:

Poor Brady's getting the beatdown. LOL
Lovely pup, I vote for Pandora, (it sounds a lot like Splendora and she is a crazy italian women I know) It seems that everyone on here all of sudden got more dogs!:biggrin:
We were looking at Dane puppies last night. Gah...I so want another one!

Hmmm... I gues size DOES matter!:rolleyes::biggrin:

Actually, I'm a little surprised because a lot of those little dogs seem to have such big personalities, and a lot of times, beat out the big dawgs for top of the pecking order!

Something tells me that Brady will be able to hold his own, though. :wink:

Awww that is one cute GSD! The ears are too darn cute!
Name wise, I like Ares. Thats one you dont hear often! Shes adorable!:biggrin:
For some reason the name Layla popped into my mind when I looked at the picture, beautful pup :)
