He looks as mad as a hatter...which goes to prove that for every dog there is/are perfect owners!

He does look a bit mad - that'll be a trait of Matt's no doubt, not mine. He also drools a lot. Again, Matt.

When he tries to shxg your leg, you'll know for sure!

Yeah, the poor boy, his previous owners were moving into a flat. I think it's going to take him a while to settle in. We went to the RSCPA at Fairlfield in Brissy.

Re: New addition to our family...

Congrats on new family member.
Certainly adds something to life-having a doggy. We`ll have to leave ours here in a week and it`ll be like leaving one of the children behind (tho` that has crossed my mind!) He`s just too old to travel.
Hope he settles soon he`ll need lots of love & reassurance.
