Oooh! It's an exciting day today! And a bit sad, too. A new friend of mine has family problems at home that have affected the "pack structure" quite severely leaving poor Harvey in an impossible situation.
I placed an ad in the Ad Trader last week asking for a little boy dog as company for both Rosie and The Bloke. Rosie is definitely my dog. She's not good for a macho image, either, and I have so many animal family-members (as well as those destined for the freezer!!) that it seemed only fair.
Well, to cut a long story short, Harvey came a very long way to stay with us today. He's the most handsome fellow! He's what's known as "broken-coated", black, with an adorable white shirt-front. Think Disney, and you have him! He's only been here for about 5 hours and has settled in beautifully. Rosie thinks he's a hunk! He's a bit bigger than her, being of the Patterdale persuasion, and is still sprinkling anything that he thinks needs telling that he's here, but that will wear off as his confidence builds futher. He's doing the "play bow" to Rosie and she is finally beginning to join in. I'm pleased about this now - let's see how wonderful I think it is when the pair of them launch themselves across the kitchen where there's no traction and knock something flying!!!
He's been for a ride in the car - and really enjoyed it!

He is a stunning little chap and we love him already. I hope this is some comfort to his really lovely previous family and that their problems get sorted out as soon as possible.
Woof Woof!!
