The long list of Christmas presents was a bit of a give away, plus pretty much every post you have made since Hope moved in with you and Soldier. Congratulations Dale. Wishing you all the happiest of futures together. xx

Woo hoo! Fab news 😊 Things worked out perfectly 🎉🎉🎉 I entirely agree, Claire, but then I think we all believe it was a match made in heaven. Can't wait to see delightful little Hope on Saturday in the flesh.xx

What happened to you, Hope and Soldier when we arrived at the Garden Centre, Dale? I had a brief glimpse of you all on arrival but got distracted by trying to arrange the set-up point?

It was all a bit busy and manic, so we decided to go visit some friends up the road, Hope is getting a lot better but i felt it was getting a bit confined with not much escape room for her. As they say little an often. It was good for her to be exposed to another new situation and next time for longer, I just haven’t realised how busy it was going to be.

You’re right to not expose her to potentially stressful situations that she may not be able to cope with. Leaving before you see any signs of stress is good for her because a range of experience is useful but little and often so she has a chance to process the experience rather than react to it.

Absolutely the right course of action Dale. Thanks to your careful introduction Hope is settling into her forever home & new environment really well, & the lass needs as few distractions as possible from that process - well done mate.

However, as can be seen, we meet Bella "the killer staffie" in a nice open garden environment and had a great time, and also was quite happy to curl up with everyone else and take fuss of other people. And when all was said and done, we were nackered...

Thought I would give another little update, Hope continues to settle and find her feet, if anything we have started to have to crack down on her a little bit as she was trying to become the boss, with soldier being a bit of a woos he can be pushed about if not careful, although he will tell her off if pushed far enough. She actually came along to the walk on Sunday although due to work commitments I was a little late so we joined halfway around. Hope was happy to say hello to everyone and particularly wanting to play with all the hounds, I actually let her off the lead for a few mins and she had great zoomie fun. Here are a few pics Its my couch, go get your own... Honest I am comfy Getting the hang of this ere roaching.. Duhhh... Hear No Evil, See No Evil... You will love me !!! Ohh if I must... Have you seen my BoyFriend...
