Presenting: To!

To

So... I was searching for a tall, smooth BC... But then came across videos of To's mother, couldn't sleep after and I just knew she is the one. After studying tons of different lines and already reserving another puppy first, I just knew that's it, no extra studies done - despite I don't know the line at all and never met the mother or father.

The only problem was that we needed 3 girls for me to get one... And then on 3rd November, 3 girls were born 🙂 I immediately fell in love with one and liked her better&better with every next video, she was just so cool! I was sure I have no chance to get her as she is so cool and I had the last choice, but it turned out we all like another puppy the most and we could all get our 1st choice 🙂 So then she just needed to do some more growing and yesterday, we flew to the Netherlands to bring little To home!

She might not be tall or smooth, but To means "exactly that!" in slovenian and I think she really is exactly what I've been searching for afterall. It's just like I found La, my one in a billion dog: searching for a rough fawn, reserving one from the line I studied long and hard and really loved it - but then met her mother and... The plan had changed 🙂 - And taught me to never be afraid to change plans, to follow the heart rather as head and go with what feels right. And To sure just feels right.

So far, she is doing really great, she is already house broken, comes when called, eats everything, plays with everything and is following me everywhere. She also sleeps the whole night BUT exclusively in the bed. She must see me at all times or she becomes the loudest puppy in the world - amazing how LOUD a little puppy can be! That's new for me, all my puppies slept when they were tired, but she only sleeps as long as she can feel or see me 🙂

Her pedigree name is Infinity Light Time is on To side - it had to be the Rolling Stones song, contain her call name and couldn't contain ' 🙂 and she is out of Wannahave Marvelous Alyx and Bye and Away Gloubard.  More pictures and videos coming soon, have to go play with the puppy now!!! But here is great documentation of her first 7 weeks (she is the one with a red collar), by her breeder Haika Smid:

      Yes, my other dogs sleep on the bed as well, but I usually keep puppies in a crate next to it. And I never had a puppy who would notice in a second if I leave after they fall asleep…

        As friendly as Spur is he is absolutely not a smuggler. 😛 And my blind dog is worried now about falling off, I guess, so I only have Roscoe! Oh and my husband, LOL!!!

        Reminds me of Bee a year ago. Was a very loud puppy and throwing tantrum tempers when I worked with my other dogs (over time a bone to suckle on helped).

        Congrats to awfully cute To and like everybody else I am looking forward to admire you two as she grows up.

    (do you pronounce her name like “2” ?)

      Thanks 🙂 And no, that would be too similar to Bu -- it’s To like in “torrent”.

      • noa December 28, 2013 at 21:02 Log in to Reply

        Perfect ! “Totototo” is going to sound just RIGHT 😀

    Awww, puppy! Congratulations. I completely understand following the heart, it is what it is all about.

    I’m looking forward to following you two as she grows up. To’s parents are awesome.
