Hello and a late merry Christmas!

Yesterday was a big day for me, I finally went to visit my future Moyen (Medium, big mini) poodle pup James. Tomorrow he'll be 6 weeks old.
I have been looking forward to this day for a very long time! I was planning ahead since late september.

I arrived yesterday while the pups were sleeping, a big pile of white fluff making the cutest puppy sleepy noises I have ever heard.



I had a little chat with the breeder (an elderly couple with about 40 years of breeding experience) and then it was time for me to cuddle with the puppies.
I told the breeder I was looking for a slightly larger pup (I want to do all different kinds of sports with him and a slightly larger dog will fit that plan better) and there are 2 larger pups in the litter, both about 2200g or 4lb 13.603oz
They were both adorable! Such cute little faces!



The pups were a bit tired, they already had a visitor that day.
One of the two bigger pups was a bit more active than the other (probably because the previous visitor had a preference for a smaller dog) and I felt really drawn to him. He was jumping all over his brothers and sisters trying to get them to play with him. And that's what I want!

It was really hard for me to choose a pup because they were so tired so the breeder said I don't have to choose until they are 8 weeks old and he'll monitor the pups to see which one would be the best pup for me.
I hope to bring him home on the 9th of January, that's a wednesday and I have every thursday and friday of from school so that would give me enough time to get him settled before I go to class on monday and he stays home with my mom and the other dogs.

This is a picture of the more active pup



And here's one of me with that same pup (I really did like him best)



And an other one with the two bigger pups



And an other one



My mom took quite a few pictures of me with the pups



And one more sleepy puppy picture




I also shot some video, I removed the sound because of the birds in the background.
Here's the link:

I can't wait until the day I get to bring him home!

Thank you for such a lovely puppy fix! It will be interesting to see how they develop over the next few weeks - how very exciting for you.

What great fun to see that sweet litter! Sounds like you and the breeder really hit it off and are working well together to find the right pup for you. It's wise you're thinking things through the way you are. It won't be long now before the right pup is right at home with you--how exciting!! (I know you'll have fun grooming poodle hair, your own is just gorgeous!!)

How very, very exciting! They are all so, so cute. What a hard decision. Sounds like the breeders are nice and willing to work with you. Looking forward to *meeting* the one you choose.

Thank you all for your lovely comments!

I really hope they get chipped soon so the breeder can let me know when my pup can come home

Oh my gosh, those cute babies are all adorable! How the heck do you choose? It was easy for me - 2 black females were the only ones in the girls litter! Wonderful pictures and Congratulations!!
