Puppy Update....

This little guy is growing up so fast! I just have to show him off before he's all grown up. In two weeks he's almost doubled in size! So I must be doing something right.

Below is Bob the Havanese coming to have a bum shuffle with Rua...It's kinda the doggie way of saying ecome on....come play...your own dog has probably done this to you....just banged there hip against you it's kinda "na na na na you cant catch me"


So we have Rua, now 12 weeks. Bob who lives next door, and Susie is the jack russell, who rua has made his granny.

And now we have Charlie & Rua finally playing like they've known each other all there lives. Rua LOVES charlie. Anything Charlie does Rua wants to do too. Which may turn out to be great...or nightmare. Charlie is great with cars he knows....if he's outside and see's a car he knows he runs to the front door to greet the people....if its a car he doesn't know....the fecker chases it! But so far all the cars are new to Rua....and he has no interest in charing (THANK GOD) 


I've WARNED my brother to drive slow coming in the dirve...cos our drive way is steep. so you gotta put your foot down...but incase rua is exploring and wondering around the garden just wanna make sure he could stop in time if a dog did wonder across the drive way. We got a pretty BIG garden...perfect for a red setter....who I have been told are the horse of dogs...

The Steep Drive way...I'm going to need a driving lession just to figure out how to leave and get in our drive!

Charlie waiting at the door with other jack russell...Debbie. She's blind & nearly deaf.


And we also have this little bit of a feild out the back the dogs love to run in! This is where my business will be set up if I go ahead with it...to the back of the picture is a hill....during the boom years...the view was worth....I don't want to say...cos it's just depressing! Watch this place...you could see "Carrig View Livary" crop up, Home of Champion in Show Red Setter Carrig Rua.

Right...now for the main event.....puppy...although soon to be dog pictures!





He LOVES his kennel...all I have to say is "Bedtime" and off he goes...Charlie goes into his kennel...Rua into his one with Susie

I'm actually so proud of this little pup...and well kinda proud of my self aswell. In the two weeks I've had him...he's had a huge growth spurt, I this down to me giving him the right diet (Beta Puppy, and I weight out the food and portion it in bags) He's also house trained...bar the rare accident...which is really down to us not leaving him outside...so our fault really. He's walking on the lead. He's also used to the bath, I've washed him three times in the two weeks. First bath to get the smell of all his former "pack" off him so my dogs would accept him. Second bath was some tea tree shampoo cos he was too young to treat for fleas yet and he was so itchy, he was being driven mad. In fairness I only did find like 2 or 3 or the buggers...but on a puppy thats torture. Third bath was few days ago with a flea shampoo and he behaved perfectly!

I think he's going to grow up to be a magnificent creature! I like to think he's in the best hands to bring on his potential!
