Dirty Laundry:

You've probably noticed the red and black fleece blankets in the photos. We'll be sending a small blanket with each pup that has not been washed. It will be well slept on, wrestled on, played on, etc, but not soiled. The idea is that they will have the smell of all their buddies right at their nose. I would keep the blanket unwashed for at least a few days until the pups are comfortable in their new homes. Similarily, it would be a good idea to sleep in a few old t-shirts, with plenty of "new pup owner" smell (shouldn't be hard for you Roger), and have that ready to throw into the pups bed along with, and then substitued for, the puppy blanket.
