Thought I would give you all a progress report on how Finley is doing!!
Apart from being an absolute joy, Finley has been so good.. so thanks for training him before we got him, it has been a great help.. he knows what to chew and where to do his business.
He must be in puppy heaven he has lots of visitors during the day to play with him, loads of chewy toys,, and a very dirty garden to get all messed up in and dig BIG holes.
For the short time he is on his own has the run of the conservatory and the garden.
By the time i get home, there is lots of the garden in the conservatory, including snails... which he has a very fond liking of.. he must have been french in a former life !!
He has lots of little quirks - he has stolen the prime position of the man of the house,, and almost taken control of the best seat and remote control.
He sleeps in his crate with no problem and every morning comes up to bed for a little cuddle for an hour before i start getting ready for work. He generally falls asleep on my lap in the evening after playing around and being a busy little pup all day x
Yesterday,,while i was making dinner,, Fin found the joys of the fireplace, and by the time i checked in on him, he had taken all the coals out of the fireplace put them on the floor and was rolling round in the soot. I thought we had a new black Labrador !!
He starts doggy training in October so Im sure ill have some funny stories for you then !!
That's all I have for now...
Lots of Love,
Alicia , Ken and FINLEY - woof woof x x
Hiya Everyone,
I know your dying for part 2, from Finley..
Well, he is growing into those huge paws of his at an alarming rate.
He is enjoying his new home, and has won the hearts of all the family who fight over who will babysit if i am not around (which isnt often)
Fin has already been on a mini holiday up to Norfolk where he loved the beach and was splashing around, loves the water and making lots of new friends....
At home he is a silly little pup, having his mad moments chasing himself around the settee,, is soooooooo scared of the hoover and doesnt like joggers when were out for walkies... he is an adorable little guy, and loves nothing more than a big cuddle
We go for long walkies in the forest opposite the house and he loves the smells and the hiding places and chasing his new little squirrel friends.
The kids are besotted and the poor little boy doesnt get much time to himself.
His first visit to the vet went well, and he is fully chipped and vaccinated, and again we nearly lost him to receptionists who didnt wanna let go haha
I am trying to post pictures but i havent worked out how to do it... HELP !! when i press insert picture, it comes up with some IMG thingy...
