So a couple days ago I posted in the "Face Behind the Name" thread about my friend's puppies. I was reeeeally hoping to get one aaaaand... I did! I am so happy! My parents just fell in love with them. I got some pictures yesterday. She is such a great puppy!! I've had her since thursday and she hasn't had a single accident in the house yet! She is in the house for now but will eventually be a livestock guardian dog. She is 9 weeks old and over 20 pounds. LOL She should be about 100 pounds full grown. She is Great Pyrenees, Anatolian Shepherd dog, and Akbash. I am so excited to finally have my own dog.
I think she looks like she's wearing eyeliner. LOL
I just keep looking at her and melting into a big puddle of puppy love pudding. :lol:
So happy.....
Oh my gosh! She is adorable! Beautiful little ears! I love her already! You definitely have to at least give us an update on her when something interesting happens! (With puppies, this always happens)!
:shock:..... Oh my goodness! That puppy is too cute for it's own good! Why? Because i am going to steal her and you will never see her again! Mwahahahaha!!!!
Just kidding! But, seriously one of the cutest puppies ever!
I think we are going to name her Darcy but it's not for sure yet.
BettaLover: Well, she is amazingly well housebroken. She was raised on a farm and was born outside so she is totally used to going to the bathroom outside. She is great!
LOL ArticRain. It probably wouldn't be too hard to steal her. She is supposed to be a "guard" dog but right now my standard poodle is more of a guard dog then her. haha She just licks people to death.

That's cute. Hopefully you come up with a name that you think may suit her. Her paws are pretty big. I could see how she could be in relation to a farm dog. In the pictures I see some really nice "gray-ish" sections near the ears on her. Is that just a shadow or is it part of her color?
That's great! I would like to have my dog be potty trained outside than in any day so that's pretty much a plus for you.
What kind of livestock do you have? Will you have to teach her to do anything regarding the livestock guardian piece (like you would with herding dogs) or is that just instinctual due to the breeds she has mixed in there?
We have decided to name her Darcy. It totally fits her.
Magpie: We have sheep right now. Probably getting some chickens sometime. We have had huge problems with other animals eating our chickens so this dog will be worth her weight in gold when we get them.
Kathstew: Thanks. The poodle (Obie) is just mine for a year. He is a service dog in training and I'm just training him in basic obedience and things like that.
Bettalover: That is her coloring. It is a nice cream/grey color and it may or may not fade over time.

I can do nothing, but smile when I see these kind of pictures! I'm sure dogs are a bit harder to take pictures of (when they are puppies especially) and in a sense maybe easier.
The first picture looks like she's saying "alright I'll drink the water and you shoot...Is this good enough?"
Is it me or did she get bigger from the last photos? Also I do see that those two beige patches on her ears have darkened a bit.
Thank you! Yes she has gotten much bigger! I weighed her yesterday and she is a whopping 24 pounds. She is just the cutest puppy everrrrr...
I posted these pictures in the face behind the name thread too but I will put them here too.
So cute. Actually both of you very cute She will get a lot of bigger and can be good for protection. I always wanted dog for protection. I love when dog knows where is her family and where is the stranger Good luck i hope you love bettas too lol
It may be because she is like the laziest dog ever. LOL She is quite easy to take pictures of.
