This is Scrumpy

This is Truly Scrumptious 

or

Scrumpy
(that's the short version)


Here are some pictures taken at his Puppy Foster Home

 one of the many Foster Homes 

organised by Dorset Dog Rescue



And here he is with his brother - one of his many siblings





Scrumpy is a Pointer / Springer X 



And here he is in his new home




Getting all settled in




That bone is nearly as big as him


I think his purple collar is rather dashing!


And here he's already found the warmth of the AGA





And here he's found the comfort of the sofa!



All in less than 24 hours too.


UPDATE

Who needs to buy expensive pet shop toys when the cardboard middle from a Kitchen Roll will do and believe me we will have loads of those as we have gone through one roll today already!

That's not to say that he's been a bad puppy, not at all, he's just had a few near misses with his puppy pads that's all.  At one point he went running towards one, skidded on the wood floor, managed to fold the puppy pad into a concertina and wee'd on that!!  YAY - treat given for making it to the right spot!


We had our neighbours pop in for a bit of puppy love!


They have 2 dogs - lovely Jack Russells, so as soon as Scrumpy is ready he's going to meet them for some Puppy Socialising 


Ian and I were thrilled today when this MASSIVE puppy pen arrived via Amazon.co.uk today
We only ordered it yesterday, but I sent a "flutter my eyelashes" type message to the company that sold them asking them to send it ASAP and guess what - they did!!


As it arrived today - it was very easy to put together and is very spacious as you can see.
It's handy for when the door rings or when we need to pop to the loo, when we are eating etc.  If anyone wants the link let me know!

Ian has just gone running after Scrumpy, lifted him on to a puppy pad and is saying "empty".  Scrumpy is looking at Ian as if he is mad - LOL
Oh he did a wee - hooray - a little treat is now in progress 
FAB

Scrumpy is all booked in to see the Vets next week - with no less than Vet Alison that took care of our last dog - she's so good, so we wouldn't have wanted anyone else.  
He's going to get his 2nd Jab and microchipping.

We have also go our Dog Insurance Quote via Animal Friends, so I think we are all sorted and can all enjoy a few more hours snuggled on the sofa together now!
