Title: Newbie from the Highlands!
Post by: Huggy Bear on June 29, 2008, 01:12:21 PM
Hi there, My name is Sadie and I have just bought a golden cocker spaniel boy! I took him home yesterday and he is a wee sweatheart! :luv: Very well behaved, so far and only wolk me up twice last night so not feeling too tired! LOL!  :D His pedigree name is "Handsome Huggy Bear" so we call him Huggy! He really suits it as he has the most gorgeous face and thick curly coat!
Where do I post up a pic of him?

Thanks, Sadie  :D

now I'm sorry but you are bang out of order! Not only do you get to have a lovely new puppy but you also get to live in my favourite place in the whole world! What part of that lovely place do you live in? I used to live in Tain and would give anything (apart from my cocker) to move back. We are coming up there in August so maybe a meet is on the cards  :D

I'm off to find a photo of Huggy now......

Oh, welcome btw  :005:

Ha ha!  ;)  Yip I got him from a lovley lady who breeds the show cockers in Dundee! So it was  a long drive home but well worth it! Huggy was good as gold, the whole way home! He was good last night, wolk me up at 3.45am so put him out for a pee, then back to bed then he was up again at 7am, he was put out for a pee and given breakfast then he fell asleep again for 1hr, so I got up at 8am!  :D 

I live about 1/2 hr from Inverness, don't want to be too spesific incase anyone does steal him from me!! :'(

 :luv: He is my little baby!! :luv:
