Monty is home - and we are SO HAPPY!!!!

[feefee]

Hello all

Our little Blue Roan boy MONTY came home today and we are so delighted!!!

He played for ages in our back garden with my 7 year old and son even chose to go into his crate twice for a snooze without being prompted.  We bought a snuggle puppy complete with beating heart and he has seems to have taken great comfort from this..,   At present he is lying in his cozy bed with his paw over the snuggle pup.

Has had his first milestone too - His first 2 poos were outdoors today- What a boy!!!  -- I know this may be beginners luck but we are ever hopeful..  although numerous pees all in the wrong places.... oh joy.

Any suggestions though - he has been in garden eating all plants, dirt and anything else ----- I take it this is normal for cockers? 


Will post photos when I figure out how to do it.... Am so proud to own this beautiful boy

Sounds perfectly normal to me  ..just be aware that some plants can be poisonous to dogs ..here's a link that might help

   Thanks to you all - Have looked down and he is now hanging out of his basket in the most awkward position I have ever seen - bet he wakes up with a sore neck!!!!

How lovely..a new baby   Hope he sleeps well tonight.

It is normal for the bush eating, Rocky has taken particular favour to my herb patch, but if all else fails, he can always help himself to mud and grass.

Keep Monty away from stones tho, bad for little teeth

Hi all - more advice needed please.

Put him in crate last night and he spent an hour howling but settled down ok after that.  Got him up and out of house at 3 this am to do the needful but today he has seemed so very depressed.  He has spent most of his time in his basket looking pathetic..... Is this normal, is he missing his siblings or are we not doing something we should??  He really is a different dog from yesterday who had such a fun time..

We have tried to encourage him to play and given him a couple of treats and toys to play with but he doesn't seem interested.

My son is quite upset too as Monty is "sad".   HELP!!!  Any suggestions welcome

Aahh sounds like he has just been overwhelmed and is missing his littermates, Let him rest and he will soon be back to that playful little tike from yesterday.

prescribe LOTS of encouragement and lots of 'good boys' ....... food treats and cuddles ......

He'll be fine x
