"No not him... pick me!!!!"
On Monday we went to the Breeder's home...
She had two black males from the litter of puppies born Nov 19th and we chose the one with out the white on his paw...


When I walked in the puppy which was the one we had choose over the internet (through emails) was playing but when I held him he tucked his tail under his legs whined and was breathing heavy... (I thought oh.. He is a more whimper than Wulfgar)



Me and the first puppy

He was terrified... He acted worse with Fire...

When we set him down he wouldn't move for a long time and when he did he seemed to have trouble with his back legs

As if he was too heavy...


He was cute but Fire was really worried that he wasn't walking like the others as well...

Then the woman told us that one of the males from the second litter (her other female) which are 4 days younger had one black male and the lady who had wanted him changed her mind so he was available...
----

Down to see the other...


So we went down and as soon as he saw Denis he barked and then he looked at me and wagged his tail... At that moment I said "Elan Esben Wulfgar fits him!" (Elan means friendly in one of the Native American languages, Esben means Divine bear in Scandinavian )

The woman then says but his name needs to be with an F... She then explained so I could understand...

Traditionally when a breeder has a litter every puppy needs a name to begin with the letter of that litter...

So this is the breeders first litter ---- A
2nd litter B
so on... the other litter is E but this litter is F

So on his papers his first name has to start with F...

He was perfect.. When I held him he gave me kisses and played with me and when Fire held him he held his head up and barked like saying look at me ....

He picked us, Denis bonded with him instantly and so did I... I just hesitated because we had said the other but the woman seemed to want us to have him and...


Well it is true... the dog picks you not the other way around... The way I see is the other didn't want us... this one did...

He has shorter hair but boy is his frisky.... The other was too sky and timid...

So we decided to get the other... His name might be Farall Elan Wulfgar (Farall is Irish and means Brave man and he is our little brave and friendly Wulfgar).. we are still deciding He will be Elan Wulfgar but we need a First name that begins with F






So here is some pictures and 2 videos (it was hard because he didn't want to stay still)

Introducing Elan Esben Wulfgar






So we made our choice... This is our little fella... He is all black except for a small bit of white under his chin on his chest...

For the papers we had to give her (the lady with the puppy) a name for him and because of some tradition (I don't understand) it had to start with E...


Fire and I was going to name him Wulfgar... The woman said he could still be name that but his first name for the papers had to start with E...


So I called my mom and sister and we all racked our brains looking through baby name books and the internet...

Fire liked Esben which is Scandinavian for Divine Bear...

I liked it but I LOVED Elan which is Native American for Friendly...

Then it clicked... Elan Esben Wulfgar (Our friendly divine bear Wulfgar)

We will go see him Monday Dec 17th and I already bought him some chew toys and a ball...









I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!
