Seven?!
Good duck surgery, that could be maddening. I only discovered Don Armandillo has a squeak in each foot the other day; happily they’re tough to squeak...

Classic sleeping pose, how on earth is that comfortable? Maisy sometimes falls off the chair when she sleeps like this, one wriggle and down she goes!

I've decided I'm over puppies myself so I'll just get older rescues from now on. I do love seeing them though.

Very wise. I shall try to remember that!

Well this is my first pup in well over seven years , in fact I`ve only actually bought two pups in very many years , all the rest have been rehomed dogs . Pups are hard work , fact , I`ve had rescue pups come through my doors and each one has been a challenge ! Reuben is very different to Sam , which is a good thing , his face is different and certainly his nature is too , bold as brass he is ! I needed a challenge and oh boy have I got one ! For me , living with a disabled husband who also has complications from a stroke three years ago , I need an outlet ,an interest and an escape from time to time from playing the carer role , and if that sounds selfish, so be it ! Nelly is adorable , she really is, but she is his little dog 100% . Maybe I am quite insane to add to the complexities of life and should have taken up crochet ! xx
I’ve been watching YouTube tutorials and crochet definitely looks harder work than a puppy! X
Not in the slightest bit selfish! I think there's a lot of two-way benefit to puppies (and hounds in general of course, but particularly little dependent puppies) that one doesn't even necessarily recognise until you're in at the deep end. I'm pretty certain I'd have fallen off the edge of this year if we hadn't had a little terror to take me out of myself (due to intensive work/studying waaay beyond expected timescales) and that's not selfish, that's sanity

Nope, not selfish, for sure. A young creature builds you into the future, gives you a purpose. Dogs are what you love, no need to change what floats your boat. It's good I think that Reuben is different to Sam, he will present a different perspective mentally. Definitely the outlet and different focus is a positive thing, takes you out of the day to day cares I believe.
But hey, he's still a Labrador
for all the challenges, like Cassie, he may present

Kate, when I first took little Joy on after losing dear Solstice and with it becoming ever more apparent that Trevor's health was starting to fail, I did fear that I might have made a massive mistake. Oh, how she lives up to her name though! How beautifully she's grown into a sweet, loving and funny little dog! I honestly don't know how I would have coped without her this year. She's now asleep on my feet. You've done the right thing, I'm sure. xx
