"The Letter"

Tyanna's recall letter came today, with a date of 8/1/2008. She will be turning in with her other intact littermates at the North Central Regional Center of CCI. I really do not know how I feel....excited for her, and extremely sad at the same time. We still have lots of time though!

EDIT: I looked at CCI's website, and the official day for turn-in is AUGUST 16, 2008! 244 days left...

Wow! That's a lot of advanced notice! Not sure if it is good or bad to know so far in advance... but I guess it helps you not forget that she isn't here forever. And you will get to enjoy your wonderfully behaved girl for another summer!

Yeah, that should be the day. Is it a Saturday? It's always the day of the graduation, so that almost seems a little early, but check when your region's Aug. graduation is and that'll be the day for sure.

Aww, that's so sad! And wow, you got that early...Here at GDA we get the recall phone calls about a month in advance. Have fun with her over these next eight and a half months!

Wow, you get that SOO early!!!! As kasey said, we find out about a month/three weeks in advance, but I always ask at least two months in advance so I can start planning for my next puppy. :) Are you going to raise again?? That's weird, Camry COULD be recalled same time as Tyanna, but I don't think she will be. Our girls are so close in age, I feel like I love Tyanna!! hehhe!!

August 16th is the day my first puppy was recalled in 2003. that's kinda funny! I bet you GDA's august recall will be August 16th, too, but again, I doubt that Camry will be part of it.

Sad you're not going to raise for a while, but I definitely understand!! Are you going to college next year? or are you transferring to a different college? Or?? I took Camry to my first yeasr in college, but it's a community college and I live at home still and it all works itself out very well. :)

Wow, you find out really early!! We find out about 2 months in advance, and that is plenty of warning for me. Still got plenty of time, enjoy her! :)

Hey you!

Don't forget, depending on what dogs get turned in when, who is more advanced, it has been known that CCI will push some dogs back until the next graduation.

I believe Onalee and 3 or 4 others from her litter will be turning in in November, the others in August. However with the big litters and the number between April and June, a lot of puppies could get pushed back.

They only take a certain number of dogs within a graduation period - depending on how many graduate, how many puppies they have in the kennels. A lot of things are part of the equation.

I'm expecting a letter for Onalee, but I'm already signed up for another pup.. hopefully this time around a Golden.. I told my PPM I want a new puppy about a month before Onalee turns in =)!

8 1/2 months is a long time...not nearly long enough, but still long.

Onalee sends Ty puppy Christmas kisses!!

WOW - you do get notice very early. We get it between 1 - 2 months before turn in. Enjoy all the time you have with her!
