Bobby is enjoying spending time playing in the garden with Shelley!

Ok, so Bobby seriously needs a haircut but even with lockdown hair he still was up for a date with a younger lady today.
My friend and her dog Luna popped in to say hello and after an initial bark at them Bobby welcomed them in to the garden. He took treats from Kate and was very inquisitive and you could see he really wanted to be a brave dog!
It was good to see that even though they have led quite a sheltered life and have not mixed with many people or other dogs since being with us neither he nor Shelley seem to mind the company of a gentle natured dog. Bobby was quite interested in Luna, watching her being stroked and whilst she was there he was much braver and forthcoming. I really feel he will take guidance from a more confident companion. A couple of photos from the first few minutes of meeting Luna.

Bobby is enjoying life. During the day they have the run of downstairs when we are out and tend to spend that time sitting in the window watching the world go by. They only bark if someone comes up the drive
Not sure they are big enough to scare off the burglars...
Bobby now has a daily brush of his head, face and body, but not yet belly and legs. He would prefer not to but endures it which is progress.
He is a lovely boy and so responsive to his name.

It's so nice, Ros, to read about how they change bit by bit, get braver and more responsive to humans :-).

Bobby has had a harness fitted today and as he didn't seem to mind the leads we thought we would take him outside to the grass on the other side of the road.
Bobby seemed to like it after initial jumpiness and did several loops of the playground. In fact we struggled to get him home for his tea

Bobby had a visit to a wonderful groomer today.
Doesn't he look smart and so much cooler for this warm weather!
