Having a shit day today, I look over to my left and see this.

Your bathroom seems very "open plan".....
As posted on my new puppy day thread - off to pick her up in an hour or so. Then Petmageddon as 'integration' with the lab and two cats begins!
And more photos of course. She looks like trouble in a good way

Oscar playing the floor is lava in the very dog friendly local.

Taken a few photos today unsurprisingly!
I'll bet 😀
How's she settling in?
Do you have any idea how fast she is?
Not recorded, but having seen her chase a rabbit, she's frighteningly fast when she's in hunting mode. It's why we're very selective about where we let her off.

How’s she settling in?
Good so far. No whining in the night we could hear. Lola slept next to her which probably helped. Fair to say senior dog not 100% convinced about her new housemate. New pup was very keen to play at 6am this morning...
looking at that photo, she doesn't look too impressed at being 'bed-jacked'

New pup just runs out of battery and is asleep in 2 minutes.
Tired from supervising the patio excavation today.


Eventually we got to watch some cricket today. Oscar loves to watch a match, he’s been going since he was about 8 weeks old.
The hound attempted a run-on landing at whilst still pulling power. It didn't as planned.
She's fine, walked off the booboo and humiliation.
That did not go to plan (I think we all done similar tbf)

Terrible photo, but he did seem awfy pleased to be given that carrot.
@relapsed_mandalorian that’s a great video looks confused.

Quick look round to see if anyone saw that, nope, never happened 😀
Barney sometimes ends up in a heap running across undulating fields or on a beach. He likes running and bouncing around in long grass too, which is fine until the ground disappears and rolls down a bank.
Not much running about this weekend though, more lying about and enjoying the sun.
Bert helping out with a spannering session!

Oscar enjoying the fire pit table.
He's never happier than when he's at the beach


Nice Lab.
Buddy looks so proud of himself.
I quite fancy canicross. Not sure if Lola would though. Not one for pulling at all. Flopping to the ground for street chip consumption rather stops all forward moment.
What flavour Jeffl?
Pup (Roxi) getting noticeably bigger (and heavier). Settled in well.
Lola still not 100% convinced a second dog is a good idea, but she's starting to play with Roxi a bit. Until the pup bites her ear/tail/leg after which the 'get away from me fool' growl is deployed 🙂

Not mine and he's a 4 week old "Toller". Looking forward to pet-sitting duties.
Loved a dog as a kid, would like another, my kids would also like one, but I'm a realist and know that most of the dog care would fall to me and I just don't have the time that a dog would deserve.
As for encounters with dogs of late, vast majority have been fine, some good, there has been the odd ankle biter who thinks that I'm some sort of threat that must be chased and barked at but no real issues.
In the past I've had plenty more negative encounters, especially when on the bike but I reckon that these were younger dogs from the covid boom, now all much older and more relaxed.
I do wish that dog owners would be a bit more empathetic to others who do not like dogs, and don't let their dog approach strangers (even playfullly) who may have a genuine fear of dogs.
Nice photos and stories on here.
Here's another Roksy.....not a morning girl...always pops down to say hello while the kettle's boiling, and then back upstairs and hijacks the warm spot someone's left behind

And now it's summer, shoes must be taken into the garden....

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever !!
Nice photo
There's a bloke we run into occasionally on Marsden Moor with 2 of them. Lovely dogs
@joshvegas not entirely sure as he's a rescue. Although we think a mixture of collie and lab.
Oh and lots of stupid as well 🤣
He does have that look about him. Really similar in lots orlf respects to lola, i wondered if he was a rommie rescue!
Handsome laddie.
Yeah he was imported from Romania 😀
Aha! Curly bushy tail?


Woks up dog.
