Puppy coming soon!

[OverInfestedBadger]

We get our new pup in 5 weeks. Current ddog is 11 and a half so it has been a while. I’m happy, excited and looking forward too it, but am stressing that I will have forgotten everything I know. I had 2 dogs, competed in agility, trained other people etc, but since then I’ve had 2 kids and my brain feels empty.
Would love a thread of encouragement

I doubt your carpets are feeling excited!
Don't be surprised if ddog1 isn't too enthused either!! Our first ddog as a dc hated the puppy.
My current ddog 1 loved our dpuppy but she was only 4 yo..
Vowed after 2 dpuppies a month apart 5 years ago no more dpuppies are getting in!!
