8 weeks old... our first meeting!
Certainly love at first sight, that's for sure.
He was calm and confident right from the beginning.
He immediately took to Rick. He knew right way who Daddy was.
We flew down to LA to pick him up. There are not many reputable breeders in the US, and the one we chose was in California. So we flew out EARLY Friday morning, picked him up at 11 am, and headed to Hermosa Beach for a few hours of bonding time. As you can see, there was not issues with bonding at all!
He seems SO small in Rick's arms. When we brought him home, he was around 18 pounds at 8 weeks old.
Yes, he actually used to fit in Rick's lap
