Social puppy

One hopes he's responsible about this.

I always get nervous when someone famous gets a puli, because it brings attention to the breed, and attention to the breed inevitably means puppy mill. Gavin Rossdale used to* have a puli named Winston, and he was on the CD of a Bush album. I've never received so many e-mails as when he (Gavin, not Winston) married Gwen Stefani, because Winston was in some of the wedding pictures.

I, too, am looking for another puli. Celosa has made it clear that she needs another dog, and while she gets along great with pretty much everyone, she plays the best with other pulik. I will probably have to wait at least six months to a year to get the new baby, because our breeder just sent off a litter and she waits quite a bit of time between litters to make sure that she dedicates time to the dams throughout pregnancy and the puppies in the nine weeks after they're born.

*Winston and Relampago were born the same year, so I assume, without knowing, that Winston is now playing with Relampago whereever it is that pulis go to wait for us. Crianza is telling them to knock it off because they're being too rowdy.
