AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG! Our puppy has been born! I’m so excited my face has gone all pink!!! :eek:

Anne (Broadreach Dogs) just called and Chloe had just four pups – Anne was surprised as Chloe was apparently very chubby. 1 black boy, 1 pale boy and 2pale girls...the pale boy is spoken for and since our preference was a pale Cockapoo we’re getting a girl. Although I’d thought we’d be getting a boy I’m just delighted they’re healthy... though we will need to go back to the drawing board as Rupert will hardly be appropriate for a little girl lol! Or perhaps it could be a VERY original girl's name:laugh:We’re thinking ‘Roo’... ideas on a postcard please folks!

Anyway, we’re going to see the litter at five weeks old on Saturday 4th February and Anne has said we’re the first ‘appointment’ so will get first pick of the two girls. And then she will be ready to come home at eight weeks so presumably the weekend of the 25th/26th February. What will I do until then...?! :eek:

Congratualtions! How exciting for you :D Girls are brill! That's why we had to get a second :) & actually I think girls names are loads easier than boys names, but that's down to the individual lol.

What kind of names do you like & I will start thinking? I love suggesting names :) Unusual ones? Or not to unusual? Or a bit of both?
& if you like Roo, I like Roxie as the longer name & Roo as a nick name? :)

I'm so excited for you! Please keep us updated with pictures & name ideas :D xxx

Fab news :)

Ok names now Turi ... and of course little puppy pics as soon as you get some from Anne ....

When you say pale ... what colour are we talking .. cream, apricot, parti ... you know I am a coat colour nutter :)

I am so pleased for you .. and congrats Anne on your new arrivals xxxx

Ooooh congratulations!

I'd originally thought we would get a boy but it was a girl that stood out for us so its girls we have. I think personality and how they bond is the main thing.

I like Roo, its quite sweet. Ruthy, Ruffles, Rumour or Rusty?

Looking forward to seeing pics, your wait is nearly over Turi :D

CONGRATULATIONS! That is lovely news. :)))))))))

Oh I remember how hard the weeks are between the pups being born and getting to take one home in your arms...but it goes so quickly! How exciting!!

We will have to organise a puppy play date with Boston once we get back from Oz. :))))

Oh yay, thats great news Turi, I can't belive the search for your puppy is finally over :)

Roo is a cute name and will definately suit the cockapoo bounce.
Congratulations and enjoy watching your baby progress over the next few weeks.

Congratulations Turi, I can practically feel your excitement....Girl names are
much harder than boy names I found. I wonder what you will end up choosing..

I agree - I had loads of boys names lined up! Marcus and I were nearly decided on Hugo... Hugette perhaps (joking...!) :p

Yes - good idea Shirley. And don't worry - I'll be the photo posting queen as soon as I have them!

I like unusual names... love Roxie actually. Though I know someone called Roxie - would that be bad?! We also like Amber... and Nutmeg...

Oh no, I didn't ask! I was too excited and flustered. Judging on her past litters I'm assume blonde (as in Laura's Izzy colour) though to golden (Stevie, as in Rustler's pup's colour)

Thanks Sheilagh! Rusty is cute... perhaps a bit masculine for a girl though?

Thank you Lauren! We're just SO excited :D

I'd love to organise a puppy date... what a good idea. And one later on too when she can fit into Boston's equafleece that you kindly gave us :)

Thanks Karen! I feel like I've set some sort of record for the longest wait for my Cockapoo... I know it will be worth it though :)

Hadn't even made the connection between Roo and bounciness. You've just made me love it even more!

Congratulations! I was in your position 4 weeks ago. It is a LONG wait, but our breeder sends me pictures at least once a week and that really helps! I find girl names harder than boy names too.

Thank you! Luckily, we're going skiing and then we've a weekent in Sussex AND I'm moving jobs so it's going to be a busy time... which will hopefully make me less impatient (not likely!)

There was a woman tv start Rusty at one point. Just googled her. It was Rustee Lee who was on TVam in the 80s.

So strike Rusty and how about Rustee? :)

Oooo, Rustee is cute :)

It's added to the list. I've realised I like names beginning with 'R'. Bit weird I know... going to Google 'R' girls names now....!

Congrats Turi, I am very pleased for you!

My daughter has a friend called Roo. It's her nickname and it really suits her. I think Roo is definitely female. I also went to school with a girl called Roopa if that helps?!

Looking forward to reading about your countdown!
