Hello...again

[Joao M]

I´ve been a member for some years (maybe around 6 or so), but never migrated to the new forum.
I changed my email in the meantime and forgot the password...(old age issues).
Anyway I recently was able to recover my account so I thought it would be nice to reintroduce myself:

I am Joao, from Portugal, live in a small farm and have a bullmastiff (6 yo male, called Lomu), a Spanish galgo (10-11 y.o.? rescue female, called Carmela) and a small terrier-ish (2 y.o rescue female called Fava)

Now I am getting a great dane (alequin female) to join the pack.

"Paloma" was bred in Spain (born on jan, 5) and I will pick her up on the 4th of March

I attach a recent pic of the dogs

regards
Joao

Hey! Hi! I remember you. It's really good to *see* you again. The dogs look great. Any pics of the new pup?

 

[Joao M]

Hi Boxergirl
I remember you too ! Glad to "see" you
No pics yet of the GD (Paloma). I only have videos of the litter when they were 3-4 weeks. I know the breeder took them to the vet yesterday (for shots and registration) and she is looking good and on the big side: 14 kgs (around 30lbs) and still under 7 weeks.
But I will get a few this evening (most likely) and I´ll post them tomorrow

Welcome

 

[Boxergirl]

Pictures yet? (She asks impatiently, lol.)

Welcome back, i second we need pics pics and more pics.

Sorry for not posting before...
Anyway, "Paloma" arrived on Friday and we took her for a vet check on Saturday and again today to take the shots
I had been (mis)informed she had 30 lbs at 7 weeks but tht was an evident error. We weighted her at the vet and she had 21lbs (9.5kgs) on Saturday (at exactly 2 months) and today 22.4 lbs (10.150 kgs). So she is progressing nicely and with a more appropriate weight

Here she is in the car


and at home

Omg, how beautiful is that pup,

Thanks, Glen !
The terrier mix "Fava" (broad bean in english) is assuming a babysitter role and Paloma follows her everywhere. They are the same size (for the timebeing) so they play a lot.
a couple more pics

Oh my gosh!! Paloma is gorgeous and my very favorite color! Please post as many pictures as you want. I've got the itch for a pup but won't be able to have one for quite some time and looking at other pups makes me happy.
