C'mon Lindsay, cannot wait to hear more about the little man's take on "living in town",
how's he doing with his walking on the lead / harness and toiletries and coping with life in general?
Been looking for pictires, alas! to no avail,
;)

Hi Commore!

Sorry, missed this! Jake is doing really well..... absolutely loving going out for walks, especially running up and down the beach! We tried the lead, but he was pulling a lot, so have switched to a halti harness and he walks a dream!
Toileting is strictly outside only now, which is fabulous, took him until about the week before Christmas to really get it, but the accidents in the house were very few anyway.
Overall he is a happy puppy, bounds around, and adores bedtime! He has a routine of jumping onto the bed, snuggling with us for 5 mins, moves to the end of the bed for 5 mins, and then onto the floor to stretch out on his vet bed. He sleeps all night and only gets up when the kids do!

Will get the photos uploaded to photobucket tonight - totally forgot about it! He has grown so much in such a short time! We will be getting him weighed on Tuesday as he is due his next worming tablet. He is so affectionate though, and such a pleasure to have around!

Thanks for asking, and check back later tonight or tomorrow for more pics! x

Aw shucks! he is lovely, and the pictures are great too, I can see he has "pride of place" in his "domain", absolutely brilliant!
thank you for the update, the pictures, the email and Jake, ;)

You are more than welcome! You are right too, he does have pride of place! We have to fit around him not the other way round! He loves lounging on the sofa, and generally is one pampered pooch!

Thank YOU for giving us the chance to have Jake in our lives - what we did before him, Ill never know!

Dave is currently down the beach with him, tiring him out before bedtime!

Aaaaaww bless. He really is a cutie and coming on so well.

He's a very lucky doggy to have such a great home.

Yes, he is a very lucky boy, and not only that but we do realise that we no longer have any rights over jake, but we do appreciate the consideration afforded us, by his new owners,
and of being allowed to view his progress from afar, as it were.
