    Remember…

    a puppy isn’t just for Christmas - any bits left over can be turned into a nourishing soup for boxing day.

    I’ll get my coat…

    No, the dog doesn’t have a receding hairline.

    OK now I am jealous, I have been trying to convince my partner that a dog is a good idea. I am sure forwarding this picture will have the desired effect…..

    @ Robert Wellock: Receding, receding…? I’ll have you know that my hair is still luxuriously thick and glossy. AND, I have strong bones and teeth!

    @ Geoff C: Geoff, there are nine pedigree pups in the litter, three chocolate and six black. We are having a chocolate dog which leaves another dog (black) and the rest are bitches. Rhian is looking for ’good’ homes for these guys and gals.

    @ Richard: I think that its our cat that’s gonna be in the soup!

    I miss having a dog around. I have grown up with a dog around, and you never really apprecaite the company until it is gone.

    Now, to decide what tricks to teach him first!

    He doesn’t look much like his owner in that shot, but as for this one…
    Well, the similarities are more obvious. :P

    He sure is a cute little bugger, but without a picture of the owner it’s sort of difficult to answer the question.

    What about a side by side comparison?
