Well, after months if not years of deliberation, I’ve finally put down a deposit on a dog. A lakeland terrier, it’s one of the ones in the picture though I’m buggered if I can remember which one. Won’t be doing any mtbing for at least a year so when I finally come back to it the dog will be joining in. I wanted to call it Ned but the wife has pulled rank on me and insists that it’s left to our 2&6 year old daughters to name it, I shudder to contemplate the results…

Pick up in two weeks, can’t wait.

Apologies in advance as I’ll probably be asking a few dog related questions in the coming days.

Aaaaw.
Dogs are ace.

welcome to the puppy club 😀

Bribe the kids with sweets. Ned sounds ace.

bribe the kids, neds a great name….edit too slow

agreed! 2 weeks is going to be a long wait for the kids!

it’s the one on the left, no, the right…

nice though.

Just take them both.

Two daughters. I foresee embarrassing times shouting ” TINKERBELL” when it runs off. Then some spotty yoof will film you on Their mobile and stick it on YouTube. Mark my words…..

All come up with a name, names in hat….at least you’ll have a chance.

aww bless 😀

Call it homer

Or, just tell the wife and offspring that you’ve started a thread on a mountain bike forum and a group of strangers will decide the name of your new pet.

I vote Ned

Or Dave.
