Eight weeks and off to new homes.
Having dreaded the departure for weeks, it is actually not too bad. I have managed not to cry so far. During the last week it has become clear to me that the pups need more than what I can give them and they need more space and more challenges.

Oceanus lives up to his name by being the first to wade in the water. Pontus was next, I am pleased to say 🙂

It’s funny how all dogs love to sleep with their heads resting on the side of their dog beds, even when they are a bit too small for the size of the sides.
But life moves on and we all marched off to the vet where they all got micro chipped, vaccinated and checked over. At first the vet seems nice…..
Definitely not sure about these vets now.
Even at home Mum now tells us off sometimes and it’s REALLY scary!
