PUPS COME HOME.





















We were meeting Celine who was selling us the pups at 2pm at Quimper rail station. She was early, Marie was in the loo as I saw this large estate car pull up and Celine pull out Bella, Then came Kip, slightly larger with a bit of a beer gut!
After a chat for an hour, they were ours. Celine was sad to see them go, but delighted they were coming to a loving home.
John arrived to pick us up, and the pups slept most the 2 hours back.
We got home about 5pm, and released the hounds (As Mr Burns says in the Simpsons) into the garden then the house. The living room was christened with a "Mr Whippy" minutes later.
They have settled in well, playing hard for an hour, then sleeping for 2.
Bella (red collar) seems to bully her brother a bit, but Kip gives as good as he gets. They seem very gentle dogs with a lovely nature, and really love people.
I am going to post a selection of first week photos. It's been fun in the Gard house again.

surely your not feeding the dogs giant cornish pasties (top photo) no wonder the poor thing looks knackered.

You fool. Can't you see it's a flying top for a small torpedo dish.

They are fattening up nicely Teresa. Unlike myself who has lost 10lbs since being here. You could do with coming out for a few years Doris!!!!!

Cheeeeky sod. It took me along time to grow this lot. The only reason you've lost weight is cos you got more grass than anyone i know.... getting ready for your referee's job are we. The pup's look lovely by the way, little cutie's.
