Thank you, everyone!

I did some doggie shopping today. This is so much fun!

Collar, harness, leash, food and water bowl, 2 dog beds and some toys.
Why 2 dog beds, I hear you ask?

Well, our Mäxi had to sleep alone downstairs for 8 years, before he finally conquered our bedroom for the last 2 years of his life. Once he was in there, we both noticed how much we like to have the dog with us at night. We love listening to the fussing of the dog while he is getting comfortable for the night, and one of the best sounds in the whole, wide world is the deep, satisfied dog sigh (rather grunt) that follows and signals the end of the day.
It says "DONE" and the world is good.
So our new cutie needs two dog beds, one downstairs during the day, and one upstairs in our bedroom. As a side effect I hope to have her house-trained faster that way. If the puppy had to sleep alone downstairs, she would have no other possibility than to pee (or worse) inside the house in case of an urgent need.
I never had a puppy before and thought I have time till summer to read up on raising a puppy. Now I feel kinda unprepared. But I tell myself I managed to raise three babies, I'll manage with a puppy.
