Ooh, this was all news to me today.

Congratulations to the Top Barks hoomans and doggy gang, and especially to the very beautiful Alfie.

Hope it all works out ok for you all.

He is a lot calmer this morning, slept in a crate at the foot of our bed, little whinging to start with then we didn't hear a peep out of him.
He has been giving cracking cocker cuddles and kisses, playing with Bayley, and I have done his first training session that I video'd, I'll put it on later.
He loves to jump in the bath which I find really odd, we've had the odd accident but it's to be expected.
He is mucking in with others laid by my feet with Doug and Bayley as I type.
He's off to pets at home now.
More later.

Great news!

So glad he's getting on with the others well - guess that's the main hurdle for you!

Can't wait to see the footage  :luv:

I guess he could do that while Alfie is out shopping :005:

Looking forward to seeing the video, Mark.

I wonder if he will be so keen to jump into the bath ofter you have bathed him in there for the first time?

Glad he is settling in well. Are you still planning on keeping a video diary of his progress?

Jasmine once jumped in the bath with OH, she got spooked by thunder  :005:

Enjoy your shopping Alfie  ;)
