My wife and I have a dilemma. We have been wanting a new puppy for awhile, but we wanted to make sure the situation was right before we introduced a new dog into our house. She is off for summer break in 2 weeks and it turns out a co-worker of her's has 7 amazingly adorable Australian Shepard puppies that are weened and ready to be adopted. Each of these puppies are healthy and the same size and weight. The only real difference is their color (Blue Merl and Tri-Color) and sex.

We have the first pick of the litter and we are so very awful at making decisions, so I thought I'd ask the opinion of the forum before we walk in there on Saturday and take all 7 of these fuzzballs home. We don't have a sex preference (since we will be getting him/her fixed) or color preference since we like the look of both types of Aussie. We are honestly just looking for something to sway the vote.

Making with the cute already:

These are all the puppies. 2 males and 5 females. (I believe that is the owner of them, I've never met her)

These are four of the girls.

These are the two males. Bully is the Merl and Humpty is the tri-color

    I'm leaning towards Motley myself.

    If we got her then I would be voting not to change her name... it is freaking adorable.

    Meiss, we already have one, this would be in addition to a full grown Aussie mix. That's why we can't take more than one :(

    Your wife looks older then I expected.

    Also, the clear answer is have the puppies fight to the death and keep the survivor.

    she's not quite as cute as the puppies, but would probably make a more obedient pet

    take the owner

    About the old lady, not about having the puppies knife fight for your love and attention.

    No good - if he tried that, all the puppies would just engage in that tumbling puppy-play-fighting RAWR I AM FIERCE I NOM YOUR FACE and they would be so overwhelmed by the cute that they'd just pass out and then the puppies would steal their wallets.

    Would it be weird if we show up saturday and make the puppies steel cage deathmatch?

    I think that would be perfectly reasonable.

    There's evil lurking in one of those puppies. I'm sure of it. One would do what was necessary to survive.
