Withdrawal symptoms

[vizsla]

Evening, we had a beautiful edition to the family just over a month ago, she couldn't be more adorable, and I'm so proud of her and her mum of course, also was a little apprehensive about how both my dogs would be but I can safely say there both very gentle and loving towards her even checking when she cries. But I'd never be daft enough to leave them alone as I no how quickly a accident can happen.
Other than walking the dogs iv not had much chance to get out lately and it's becoming an itch that really needs scratching! I'm a very hands on dad and like to get involed with everything but it does take its toll being on my feet 16 hours a day and not getting much sleep, but I finally feel I'm getting used to it and can't wait to to get back in the woods and out keeping fit.
Anyway reading bcuk has kept me sane at some silly hours so thanks for that,
And hello go all the new members iv noticed

Sod the dogs, enjoy the beautiful child and wife

I'm a hands on grand dad and that a wonderful thing to experience too, and the returns policy is better with grand children

Get a sling, and get out. The first few weeks with a first baby are the steepest learning curve of your life. If your pre baby normal was a long weekend walks the sooner you can do it the more like normal you feel, and the less totally nackered you will be. My first born was 3 1/2 YEARS!!!!! old when she slept through the night, they dont get special forces to do that leave of sleep depravation.

Cheers fellas I love being a dad and can't wait to do things together but I'm in no rush as I realise they grow up so quick, brought myself a baby carrier so should be able to get out for some nice walks, hopefully the weather will pick up a bit soon!
