Reeva is here !

[Selina27]

Last Wednesday 5.8kg

You can see both the spaniel and the collie, definitely!

I know, isn't it funny, spaniel ears and legs, collie face and body.

She's an absolute hoot

 

[Selina27]

not for the faint hearted, not like a Labrador

Yeah but -- NOT A CROCOPUP

Yeah but -- NOT A CROCOPUP

Mine ate a friend's handbag!!!

Yeah but -- NOT A CROCOPUP

Yep, tell me about it

 

[Jelinga]

I had a friend visit from Scotland. We were happily talking one evening, unaware that Gemma was gradually chewing through the handbag!!! I think it better they are crocopups than handbag destroyers and other things they can chew and destroy!

 

[Natalie]

think it better they are crocopups than handbag destroyers and other things they can chew and destroy!

And if they do both?

 

[Jelinga]

And if they do both?

One prays they don't

 

[Selina27]

Yep, tell me about it

If it's any consolation , although I remember it vividly, I can hardly believe that Cassie ever did that. It's like a complete metamorphosis. She's so incredibly gentle with her mouth now.

Yes, after all skin heals, free of charge

What a cool little dog Reeva is. She's going to make her mark on the world, that's for sure.

All you saying that "Labradors are easy/easier" let me say, OK, easier than Reeva's breed mix but not easy dogs. I don't get how they got the nearly universal rep as first-timer family dogs. Most of us here know better (looking at you @Natalie ) but yeesh, I've said it before and I'll say it again: Carbon is 10x the handful as either of my Rotties and I didn't even have him as a puppy. AND as Labs go, he's pretty chill. But Rotties...DEFINITELY an easier breed.

She's a little sweetheart. Definitely the typical spaniel bandy front legs

Literally the reason we have Quinn Good thing I don't have anything to compare to!

 

[Selina27]

I managed to catch Reeva in a rare moment of stillness yesterday -- in some sunshine, also rare!

 

[Emily_Babbelhund]

She's so cute! It's like someone stuck a spaniel head on a collie body!

 

[Jelinga]

Super photo, you can see the mischief in her face "what can I do next"

 

[kateincornwall]

She is gorgeous , a very pretty girl x

I know -- although she has a collie snout, and spaniel legs, exactly like someone has cut out the bits and put them back together wrong

Haha! You're not wrong there!

 

[Ashley]

she's gotten so big!!
