MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I posted last week asking for advice about adopting a dog! Loads of useful stuff thanks.
However the RSPCA didn't seem interested, and we ended up at the Dogs Trust. They were superb and today Ollie, an 11 month old black lab came home with us 😆 He is superb
Here he is:

Thanks to the Dogs Trust - well recomended!
C.I.S.
Have you tied him to the carpet with a fibre optic cable?

Great dog, mine are rescue dogs too.
Dogs rock!
Screw heads on the hinges don't line up either
Shame he didn't come with a plug.
He looks to be in good nick. Enjoy!
He looks like he's good 'un Cider, how's he settling in?
he looks lovely! Nice one.
Going to make nice big poos though 😀
PS get him insured, we are with Morethan.
No fibre optics, just an extra large collar!
Settling in fine - some initial excitement followed by sleep and then a long walk, followed by more sleep - he's now trying to eat our dinner whilst it's cooking 😯
Screw heads fit in the pre drilled holes of the hinges 😉
Strange you mention that about the RSPCA. We visited them once or twice, found them to be very hard work and then went to the Dogs Trust and got a dog.
11 month old lab standing still long enough for a photo. That's a good sign in my book. He'll be great.
Nice one for getting a rescue dog too.
he looks like a really nice dog. Well done for giving him a decent home.
I approve of your dog
Good work fella!
Hoping to look at a rescue springer at the end of the week.
Labs are great. Bart and Sophie say hi bro'

We took in a 9 month old chocolate lab 5 weeks ago. Didn't realise how nuts labs can be. he's shaping up ok. Lots of walks and big poo's 😯 The pulling on the lead is getting much better and he will come back for a treat if no other dogs are about. Hasn't chewed anything yet but did 4 beds at his old owners. Enjoy, we are.
Pops - Good to go

Good move going to The Dogs Trust. Enjoy!
Thanks for all the comments and pics! The house has felt empyt for the last 18 months (since the collie x died :() but today is ace 😀
The kids are nearly as happy as me - however as the responsible adult I am having to show a little restraint 😆
Cant wait for walkies in the morning, then a nice ride, followed by more walkies! Help burn off a little extra cider for sporting support!
