With a bit of look I will be getting another puppy in July.
Lucy will be 10 months by then, so I'm hoping there will be no problem introducing a boy?

Any advice will be appreciated  Smile

I think that as long as her training is up to scratch you will be okay, but just be prepared for her 1-2 years stages as behaviour can go backwards within this time. I've worked with lots of pups that have needed to be completely retrained at 18 months as they just magically forgot everything that they had been taught  Laughing Rolling Eyes

Yeah I agree with Rachel, the usual guide is 18/24 month age gap but there are peeps that have done it earlier and as long as your consistent things should be fine Smile

Not sure what colour the puppy will be as the female is black/white and the daddy is dark blue. Mum has just come into season; it will be her second and last litter. The breeder is a friend and I have had my name down for a year hoping they would be breeding again as the dam/sire are beauties with a lovely temperament.
When the time comes we will be able to go through and have the pick of the litter, I feel very fortunate and we are looking forward to be sitting /watching and waiting for the pull of the heart strings to name our puppy Franky  Smile
