Re: Animals strike curious poses
Thanks guys. I feel a bit weird getting him so soon after losing Jango, but when we met him he was a big scaredy but he came straight to me and sat behind my legs. The breeder is a crazy dog lady and his parents and aunt were just lovely to play with too. I think he’s going to bring a little bit of joy back to our house.

He needs a home and you have lots of love to give; sounds perfect to me!

Re: Animals strike curious poses
He's absolutely gorgeous Est, I hope he settles in well with you and I look forward to seeing lots of photos
Tilly inception is brilliant!
He's doing really well, I feel like he's really settling in and his behaviour is improving all the time. He seems to have really come on leaps and bounds in the last couple of weeks particularly. His recall is generally good but he is desperate to play with all other dogs and has no manners, so I have to be a bit careful when to let him off the lead as particularly smaller more nervous dogs don't appreciate him bouncing all over them.
The children adore him but I'm spending a lot of time reminding them to CALM DOWN and that HE IS A DOG not a toy, and although he's pretty placid, poking him around the face while he's sleeping or eating, or playing boisterously with him, all really aren't fair on him.

Sorry I started typing a long reply, got bored of myself rambling on and abandoned it

This is my brother's lovely dog, worn out by having us all round for dinner.

He really has, the lucky bugger. He still looks like a bag of bones there but he’s put on 3kg in two months #goals .

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

Re: Animals strike curious poses
Lovely photos but especially good news about Avon Barksdale. When Dollar died all the neighbouring cats decided to visit and when they moved away we ended up with Rufus as it was just too quiet.
