Road Trip

by Jeanette on January 5, 2012

Wishing everyone a Very Happy New Year!

My new year started off by receiving a phone call Monday morning from my breeder in Tennessee telling me that my puppy was on it’s way to Charlotte, NC and hoped this meeting point would be a better alternative than driving to Tennessee. It was, but I had to leave within the next hour to meet the couple who was returning home to Charlotte, NC from Tennessee with their puppy and mine! I hung up the phone, told my mom who is visiting for the holidays, we are going on a road trip..NOW.

We threw essentials in a suitcase, I kissed the husband and kids goodbye, and we were off! What should have been a 7 hour drive turned into a 10 hour drive due to weather conditions, but finally arrived at 10:30pm to collect my sweet pup..

This sweet puppy is a soft-coated wheaten terrier and as he matures, his coat will turn a wheat/white color. We adopted our first Wheaten, Cabot, 11 years ago who unexpectedly passed away on Mother’s Day. I can’t even tell you how devastated I was, but those who are pet owners know the gut wrenching pain of loosing a pet. I still miss him dearly…

Our family looks forward to opening our hearts to our new addition with open arms. Though this is a jewelry blog, I am certain you will occasionally see more photos of this sweet puppy, who does not have a name at the moment…

This weekend I will be teaching my first class for 2012 at the Reston Community Center outside of Washington, DC. If you live in the area and would like to take the class, we still have some seats available:) Have a great weekend!

Jeanette, you new addition is really adorable. I’ll have to come over to see him in person!! Does the little guy have a name yet? Can’t wait to hear it…I know that’s a tough decision. Give him a big hug for me! :-)

My brother had a Wheaten Terrier for years. Whaler wasn’t the smartest dog but she sure was loving. When she passed at 17, there was a lot of us that were heartbroken.

What a little LOVE! I bet you guys are so busy now. Training a sweet puppy is practically a full time job~ So happy for you all!
