Now that is a beautiful creature.
Luck to your Mum in the adoption procedure. Not being rude, but that looks like an active dog. You and I are of a similar vintage, how strong are your Mum's arms? Nelle (lovely name) looks like she could pull them out of her sockets! Meh, forget. Yorkshire lasses are a hardy breed.

Ha! She looks a lot bigger than she is in that photo because of the angle of the shot. She's actually a little smaller than Carrot chops, and quite a slight dog. Half to two thirds the weight of a fully filled out adult beardie I reckon. And she doesn't pull on the lead either.
She is active, but she doesn't seem remotely bouncy (unlike some dogs I could mention!). One of Mum's criteria was that the dog had to be lighter to lift than Dante was. Not so much because of how things are right now, but building in for possibly 8-10 years into the future. When the boys became rickety old men, they had to be lifted in and out of the car and so on. It was hard work, especially if one person was ferrying both dogs.

Re: Cross Bitch
Maybe she just had a bad day?

Stunning, and a red nose too.

Eyes first, Bruce.
When you meet a female always compliment the eyes first. Although because of ptosis I was a sucker for complminents about my nose too. Just never about it being red.

Lovely looking dog, Dana. By special request (aka due to being nagged! ) here are the Limey Boys doing their duty in the early (fun) days of the power outage.

Another pic of soon-to-be-Nelle:
[eta] Again, the camera angle makes her look a bit bigger than she is in person, so to speak.

She is beautiful! My brain is a bit scrambled -- who is it that has one of Carrot's siblings?

My best friends Janet and Judah have his brother, Merlot.
Judah was my partner way back when we got Pilau, so he was Pilau's daddy :P She is a bonny dog. I'm so glad Mum's having her. And Carrot is very impressed.

This is Roamer Finney H---
(My friend came up with Roamer. I was waiting for a middle name that worked and I was watching Erin Brockovich last night and saw Albert Finney and thought 'perfect, that's it.') No, he's not my cat. Yet. But he has been around a lot. He spent the night last night. He's very sweet and cuddly. But I don't know if he's had his shots or if he's fixed or if he belongs somewhere else. But anyway, we've been keeping company occasionally so I thought I'd show you how cute he is. |

You've named him -- it's done. He is now your cat.

Also -- if you're willing and able to take him to the vet, they can see if he's chipped.
