I thought i would wait up to a year to get another dog, but I feel it might be best for me to move sooner. I contacted the Havanese breeder where I got Tucker and she has pups on the ground that are ready to go home in a few weeks. The girls are already claimed but I wanted a boy anyways. Here are some pics and a link to a video i hope will work.
The two boys are Cannon with white paws and Harley is the golden.
Unless something happens unforseen, I'm picking him up next Friday.
I'm going to fly Southwest out of New Orleans for 125.00 round trip. Plus 75.00 for the sherpa carry-on. I will arrive at noon, pick him up and be back on the plane for 230pm. The little guy will only have to deal with a 90 minute flight.
And after going through thousands of baby names... I'm leaning towards, "Parker". :drum:

It's insane. I live in Lafayette, La. I would spend 160.00 bucks in gas with my 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 Hemi by the time I got to Pensacola.
200 bucks round trip rather than 12 hours there and 12 hours back.. No question as to which method is the right one for picking up the little furry baby.
Congrats, Mike!! I think "Parker" is a terrific name! It sounds like he just might be related to someone who would name their dog "Tucker." Really happy for you both!!!!
yes, Back in 2000, I came up with Tucker with Baxter being a distant second.
I like old English names so i found a website with victorian area proper english names. Parker is the stand out right now, but it's not written in stone.
Congrats Mike! I picked up my puppy and flew with her right away and it went well, except for some motion sickness. The breeder prepared for this by not feeding Emmie much that morning and she gave me extra piddle pads for her carrier and my purse. After going through TSA, I cleaned her up in the bathroom and changed the piddle pads (I think she got sick from either the car ride or while carrying her through the airport), and then after the flight she needed to be cleaned up again. But she was sweet and very loving when I finally free'd her. I can't wait to hear about your experience with meeting Parker for the first time and bringing him home to Lafayette.
Go to home goods or tj maxx. Just saw some sherpas there. The crew at Southwest will probably have a great time with your puppy!
Congrats on the new puppy. We did the same thing a few years ago. Some people told us it was too soon, but i really think it helped. I was a complete mess and to have another puppy really helped me get through it. I think my new puppy knew we needed him from an emotional standpoint and he was very affectionate. Still a nut, crazy puppy but very sweet.
OMG, he's so cute. Can't wait to hear about the mischief he's gotten into. Sounds like he's just what the doctor ordered for you, Mike. Enjoy your new ride!
Mike, So glad for you! This will definitely distract you from some of the raw pain of loosing Tucker. I know they are from the same breeder are they related in any way? Having a puppy is soooo fun AND a little frustrating too especially right after having a dog who flowed so easily with your life. Parker looks terrific,wish we could all join you to see the kisses! ENJOY!
Great video! Handsome PAPA! Thats so fun he is related to Tucker, I do remember a pic of Parker and Cookie's tail I think! Hope the excitement doesn't keep you awake nights I didn't sleep for a week before I picked up Atticus, who by the way looks a bit like Tucker too!
Less than a week Mike! I think we are all excited for you
