Flossie arrives



Following the loss of Poppy a month ago, we felt that he time was right to get another companion for Oscar (and for us!) as he was clearly missing her.
After searching without success for a rescue dog, we decided that we would take the plunge and get ourselves a puppy.
Hence the arrival this morning of Flossie.
We fetched her from Stanwick near Rushden, she is the result of a scruffy coated Jack Russell dog, and a smooth haired Fox Terrier bitch. The bitches father was a 4 times Cruft's winner so we were told!
We got home with her without incident at around 11.30 this morning, and before midday she had fallen into the pond, and had stuck her head into Oscar's bowl whilst he was eating and got snapped at for her trouble, so an exciting morning for an 8 week old Puppy!
She is due at the Vet on Monday for her jabs, we will see how long it takes for her to settle in, she is already showing s distinct interest in tennis balls (who does that remind you of?
