Let me introduce...Famke!

[reptileparadise]

You might have noticed I havent been very present lately...
well, there's a good reason for everything...
Just over a week ago, we got a new puppy!
She is a Stabijhoun and her name is Famke. She was born on the 30. november.That makes her two months and 4 days old.
The people that bred her made a very nice site with a webcam (you could actually follow the puppies for almost 24 hours a day), photo-updates every other day, a weighing table.

(Famke = Tineke)

...enjoy!...

Pretty tired from playing...

And the typical stabij position...They all like to sleep like that. The mother of this monster, her siblings...all of them...

[Stefan-A]

[enigma200316]

[drache]

and from looking at the parents, i's not something she'll outgrow
no wonder you're busy

[osubeaver22]

[tikichick]

Adorable!! Congratulations! I love the sleeping position :D

[Gijs & Sabine]

Ahhh, what a sweety she is !!!
Congrats on her and have a lot of fun :)

[anji1971]

She is absolutely adorable!!!
I'm not even a dog person, and I'm envious!!:)

[reptileparadise]

Thanks everyone for the nice reactions!

She has settled in quite well. And she has grown! Its crazy how much she has grown. She weighed 4 kg when we got her, last friday, when we had her for 3 weeks, she weighed 7,5 kilograms!
Her condition is also 'growing' like crazy...there's no more resting between play sessions...I love it! And I love her!

Happy Birthday, Famke!!! She is just amazingly beautiful! If I weren't at maximum canine density here at my house, I'd want one like her. Stunning!
