We have taken the plunge. Just when we appeared to have reached the holy grail - our five-year-old boy consistently sleeping past 6am - I went out and found a puppy. What was I thinking?
Oh but she is such a cutie. Just 8 weeks old, she is a honey-coloured Cavoodle that has melted the heart of pretty much everyone she has met in her very short life.
My husband and I had always planned to have a dog. Our circumstances were close enough to ideal, so on a chilly winter's day, I took my son and a friend's ten-year-old daughter to look at puppies. We were all immediately smitten with the little Cavoodle girl and just like that, we added little Jagger to our family.
On the way home, I drove like a first-time dad with a newborn. Within minutes, she was on Facebook. Then I messaged my husband (surprise!). Then reality sunk in: what do I know about raising a puppy?
Stay tuned to see how I go!
