Here he is . Our new Cairn...Sam!

[Sam I Am]

So excited! Today our Cairn breeder picked out the pup we are getting. He is about 8 weeks here and we won't get him till the last week of June.

I have decided to call him Sam. His registered name will be the kennel name plus "Sam I Am". 

Cant wait!! Isn't he gorgeous 

[bradl]

Love the inky black muzzle and ear points. Gives him a look of serious mischief  

[Idaho Cairns]

I see he has already learned the famous Cairn "Possession Pose"--grandly putting his puppy foot on his territory.  I envy you the coming fun but I do not envy you those long days and weeks of having to wait before you get to hold that little bundle of joy.

[Sam I Am]

Sam on top of the log with his brothers and sisters looking on. I am amazed at all the different colors in one litter.

So you're getting the "top dog" of the bunch!  It's going to be a whirlwind summer at your house!

[Luke Bizzy]

Congrats! Sam is certainly a fine looking little guy. Like you, we are waiting to pick up our (as yet unnamed) little girl. She's got very similar markings and color. The days seem to drag by as we await her coming home. Can't get her until around July 4th.

[Hillscreek]

Sam sure is a good looking cairn pup. Guaranteed to give you all the love and mischief expected!

[Lynn in TN]

Wow what a looker. Sam is beautiful! I love the one paw possession pose. So cute. I am so excited. Congratulations!

[pkcrossley]

gorgeous indeed. love the seal points.

[Kathryn]

A gorgeous little dog...with an expression that says he will run however much of the world he can...

congratulations.

[Malcolm's Dad]

Cairn puppies are so cute. Sam is a handsome dog. He will sure keep Rosie busy. Good luck trying to train him but it looks like he will train you.

[beccadiane374]

Ahh!  He's so cute!  Congrats!!

[kjwarnold]

Oh, what fun!  Sam has a very handsome black muzzle and ears.  Yep, the waiting is the hardest part!

[Hillscreek]

I meant ask what about green eggs and ham? Are you getting recipes ready?

[Sam I Am]

Ha ha ...yes ! Dr Seuss was in the loop.We went through dozens of names. From A to Z. Some very complicated ones...but in the end Sam just seems a good fit. Especially what will be his registered name, Sam I am. It just so speaks to a Cairns attitude.SAM I AM ...period.  Glad it's summer and we can wear SAM out in the back yard...no doubt ditto for us.  . Rosie, the dumpling has lost a pound on her reduced food intake, and now is svelte and ready to run!

Lynn says " Glad it's summer and we can wear SAM out in the back yard"

Cairn pups are good to wear out no matter what the season--when we finally got Bonnie it was in the dead of winter and that didn't slow her down a bit!  I learned a lesson with this one who put on her best Annie Oakley attitude and played "Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better!" with her big sister Sammi.  The heavy snowfall that first week didn't slow her down one bit.  Talk about good memories!

So excited for you!  I was surprised on my birthday last week with a picture of the new boy I am getting in August!!! I have named him Brodie...

[kieiras mom]

Cairn fun and mischief are on the way to your house.Wish I had some of it coming my way! 

[Sam I Am]

Had a Wonderful visit with Sam and his siblings. How I had forgotten what its like to be mobbed by 7 baby Cairns with needle teeth. 

[Idaho Cairns]

Oh boy he is pretty!!!!!

[Kathryn]

Ahhh, puppy breath! Sam will steal your heart.

[Dempsy's Mom]

Ya, nothing better than a puppy's breath.  He sure is a sweet little guy.  Happy for you both and Sam.  Lots of stories in the future. 

[hheldorfer]

OMG Lynn!  The two of you are going to be best friends forever, I'm sure of it!

Sooooooooooooooooooooo jealous!

 

[Pepper Bug's Mom]

Total love!!!!
