Hi everyone!
I thought I should re-introduce myself as I've been awol for a while! I originally joined the forum last year while I was still in the research stage.
I'm Julie, and my husband and I bought our puppy home in April and it's safe to say he's changed our lives for the better.
Charlie is a working cross and his colour is yet to be decided! I think he'll end up blonde, but at present he's a mix match of coarse deep gingery apricot fur and creamy blonde puppy fluff. He was hard work for the first few months and I think it's fair to say I suffered the 'puppy blues' but we appear to be through that awful hyper nippy stage with the countless time outs and we're now in a much happier place.
He's a pleasure to train, has made toilet training easy for us, loves puppy kisses, hide and seek, puzzle games, balls, frisbee, swimming, and has the hugest crush on RubyCockapoo's Pepper.
Thought I'd add a few pictures as I know how much you love puppy pics.
