Hi guys, wanted to introduce myself and my new pup, Dixie. She's a 9 week old Chesapeake Bay Retriever from Cur-sans Kennel in Wisconsin. She was delivered last week by Kati at Move the Dog. I'm a first time dog-owner and plan on training her myself. I'm sure I'll be on here from time to time for advice, and hopefully to brag on how Dixie's coming along! Thanks in advance for the help!

Congratulation on the new family member; having a puppy in many ways is like having a new baby. Lots of crying, whimpering, and messes on the floor. Plan on spending a lot of bonding time with her especially at this age. If you can not devote the time into training you may wish to begin the search for trainers now.
Good luck,

Cute pup. Sure miss our Dixie.
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Congratulations on your new pup.
