Eric's First Week

Happy Monday Lovelies!
I can't believe it's been just over a week since I brought Eric home & I'm already in love. Eric has settled in so quickly - he's a confident little chap, which is one of the things that attracted us to choose him over the other pups in the litter.
It's been eight & a half years since we had Missy as a puppy & I'd forgotten just how exuberant they are - you have to watch them all the time!
He's reminded me just how adaptable dogs are - having left his litter mates behind (one of the most streeful times in a dogs life), he's already getting used to his new life with us.

They say never work with animals - I can't tell you how hard it was to get all three dogs in one shot!

Eric loves little adventures & enjoys exploring his new surroundings...

...but it's thirsty work!

play time!

Hugo our rescue Miniature Poodle
Hugo is taking longer to adapt to Eric which, given what I know about his abuse & history before we rescued him it's totally understandable. Initially avoidance tactics were being used & Hugo gave Eric an extremely wide birth. Day by day he is getting used to Eric being around & I know that in the long run they will become besties!

Little & large!

Sweet Dreams!
I've never known a dog to sleep on their back, but Eric loves it!
Next week Eric will visit the vets for his second injection & microchip, after which we will be able to take him out & attend puppy classes - can't wait!

Wishing you all a wonderful week
