Tommy is a dinky little staffie, very friendly with people and dogs and a delight to spend time with. Louise took Tommy for his walk this morning. He was lively in his kennel, excited at the prospect of a walk but once out he settled quickly and walked nicely on the lead throughout his walk. He walked beautifully with Blossom(walking with me), and was so polite and comfortable by her side, but still sniffing independently and doing his own thing. I can see some EBT in him but his coat is an unusual treacle, stripy colour. He is small in stature and soft in his nature. We both fell in love with him.

Oh yes, rock on Tommy !!! Love this little cheeky chappie, super lad love4.gif

Forgive his 'socks' - they are bandages as he'd had his dew claws removed the day before.

I was watching tommy in his kennel while i was sitting outside having a drink - tommy was watching me. That was it - I was smitten so in I went to get him. Wriggle bottom to get ready but he was soooo happy to be going out - it was a pleasure to see his happy wriggles. To say Tommy was an easy walk would be a huge understatement - I didn’t even know he was at the end of the leads. He walks literally perfectly - no pulling what so ever. He was walking so beautifully we didn’t stop for cuddles until we got back to the kennels - he leaned in to my legs and just sat there while I stroked him. Tommy is a truly wonderful boy who was by far, one of the easiest dogs I’ve ever walked. Xx

Tommy is a little treasure. He was perfectly behaved on his walk this morning, walking with Timmy Tim. Such an easy, friendly boy to walk I can't fault him. xx

Dexter met Bonnie today and she accepted him as her new friend, after making it clear where she stood. Bonnie is focused on the squirrels and the horizon ...whilst Dexter is tuned to fetching the ball and receiving belly rubs. Super family who really get terriers...Dexter is already cherished by Caroline, Matt and their boys Ethan and Zach. Thank you all!

Well he's been with us for a week and all I can say is how lucky are we!
He's a super boy who is settling in really well and he and Bonnie are more relaxed around each other already. He's met loads of new friends in the park and caused quite a stir as he's so handsome and friendly, so I've been doing my PR bit for RR! I took him to the vet today to have his second vaccinations and no problems he was his usual happy go lucky self. He loves lie in the sun chilling and then later go a bit crazy playing after his dinner, no football is safe! Thank you so much to the whole RR team.
