dinib Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 We've decided to add another Cairn to the family. Searched for puppies in NoCal and found there weren't any puppies available. I decided to turn to rescue. I've had all my references contacted. Now, I am just waiting on the home inspection . I see the rescue I applied to just received an intake of several puppies, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will get my home inspection done in time to get my name on the list for one of the pups.

dianer Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Wow I thought we would have to wait longer but I'm driving to get our new cairn in a few moments. I am so excited. We have met and introduced Cassie and I really think he is going to be a good fit for our household. I'll have to post a photo when we get back.

AllAboutPetey Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 How exciting. We adopted a rescue Cairn almost 4 years ago. It took a lot longer than I thought it would, so hang in there. My fingers are crossed that you find the perfect match soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dianer Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 It's a boy! His name is Leo. Actually it's Royal Troon Sir Leopold and he is very shy. He's a wheaten born 4/21/2005 so he's close in age to Cassie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dianer Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Oh so cute! I didn't know you were going to get a puppy! That is wonderful. Thanks for the pictures. I took some of Leo and tried uploading them to Flikr but it said none of my files made it so back to the drawing board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi there - I would love to have a play date after the pup gets her series of shots. I will need a fenced dog park while I work with her on training. I will definitely PM you when we are ready!!

sheila and Misty Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 dont know what happenend to my last try at responding??? but it took off without my comment! If she responds to Rory I altho not crazy about it would stay with the name she is use to- if it doesnt phase her change it now- I think Josie is cute she looks oh so Tiny. seems like she should have an itsy bitsy name like molly or punkin(not pumpkin) or smidge...(just kidding) whatever you choose she will like it long as it comes with a bunch of lovin! shes sooooo precious!

TazTalk Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 She is so stinkin' cute!!! I've always wanted a black one. I like the names Gracie & Cleo. We always tend to shorten names eventually and around our house, Josie would become Joe. Please post pix when you bring her home. Congrats!!!
