It’s fascinating isn’t it? They’ve actually got surprisingly little shared ancestry in their last 5 generations, and no direct relations at all so it’s pure coincidence! I think Kipper had a little bit more of a flathead when he was tiny, and his eyes were a little wider set - what do you think? There’s definitely not much in it!
I can't believe that's Kipper! He looks so wispy and delicate (and adorable of course). Stilton looks more like adult Kipper than baby Kipper looks like adult Kipper, if that makes sense. They both have spectacular eyebrow 'antenna' and that 'I'm just a happy Labrador dude' vibe. Must be the good puppy parenting!
He’s such a sweet, placid character! (With incredibly sharp teefs)He's so lovely!
How Veryvery Brave of Stilton to sit on a wheelbarrow! GGJ still regards them with a certain amount of suspicion .Playing balance games on the wheelbarrow this morning - and then contemplating the birds and wuffling the wind

Steve said the same and I don't know if Maxx would be so brave! Stilton has already grown a bit
it’s really interesting, he’s generally very unafraid and if something is new to him he’ll sit and have a look and then go and investigate further. Yesterday for the first time he seemed scared when a big dog barked on the road outside, a little way away but clearly for some reason it worried Stilton and he really withdrew and came whimpering to us. He took a minute of stroking and chatting to bounce back but it was fascinating to see him concerned about something for the first time. I’m on the look out for his second fear phase setting in so we can increase safe spaces and not push him too fast.
It’s amazing the change in just a few days, he’s increasingly looking like a little dog!
Aww, thank you - he really does! Even the needle teefs are very beautiful and efficient
