Libby's Movin' On UP!

This week, DH and I signed a conditional offer to buy our first house! We just need to have the inspections done, and then it will be ours! We would be moving at the end of January.

Libby will be going from a yard that looks like this (and yes, the grass you see is all there is... there is an equal amount of patio stones behind the camera):



To THIS!



The new house has 1.3 acres of property It's unfenced, but we'll do that in the spring. We can't WAIT!!!

Re: Libby's Movin' On UP!

By the way, how long is it going to take you to fill the new yard with agility equipment?

Grats on your new home. Maybe Libby will have a brother or sister to play with? It's a shame for such a large yard to only be occupied by one doggie. Lol.

No kidding! DH and I are country bumpkins at heart, so living in the city has been a rough adjustment for us, and for the past 7 years we've been dying to get some real land.

Haha, I'm thinking it won't take long at ALL. I've been bookmarking plans and there is a very convenient agility-stuff shed just outside the photo!

All of my friends have asked the SAME thing... but we likely won't get another dog for a year or two. Libby's only just 2, and we want to space them out a bit. Libby's got a lot of learning to do before we start all over again with a pup!

Naw, unfortunately we'll miss the holidays by a month. We aren't taking possession until the end of January. We didn't want to move during the holidays, and we have to give 2 months notice where we are now.

Re: Libby's Movin' On UP!

no, no, you're going about this all wrong. libby is 2, still learning. you might as well jump in hands and feet and get another dog right away. see, that way you can train two at a time and be done with it. well, until you decide to add a third dog.
