Remy has now been at home for 2 weeks and is a absolute darling. Flo is also the perfect big sister :D:D:D. If anyone is waivering about a second puppy my experience is that it has been so much easier with Remy as she plays endlessly with Flo then they just hug up together.









There's a movie here of them 'sharing a twig'. Flo's face is a picture towards the end. She looks up at me as if to say 'why is she chewing the end of my twig when we have a garden full of them :confused:'

They are just gorgeous together! :D
Mandy you are making me so jealous! :O
Poppy isn't home yet, it's not fair ;)
Glad you're enjoying it so much :D
Awwww - you don't have long to wait now. Poppy looks lovely from the pic in your signature. Do you have any more pictures you can post? She looks so much like Rem :D:D:D

Hi Mandy

Lovely to see them getting on and to hear that you are enjoying them both.

Pepper has been home for 2 weeks too but I don't think things are quite as calm at our house! Both of our girls are quite feisty and they play fight constantly. Pepper never wants to give in to Ruby and we're learning to notice when she is getting tired - normally as the play starts to escalate!

I think it will get easier in 2 weeks when we can start taking Pepper out. They are both adorable and I'm sure they will settle down. Hope to hear more updates of Flo and Remy over the coming weeks!

Thanks
Helen

Hi Helen,

Flo and Remy play fight a lot too and I often have to call time out either because Flo gets fed up with a puppy hanging off her ear or because it tires Rem out. I have a play pen for Remy where she goes for a rest so it doesn't get too much for them both and I still put Rem in a covered crate in the utility room at least twice a day so she has a proper long sleep :D:D:D

Just found the thread and Poppy looks sooo cute. They have the same dad too just like Flo and Rem. It's nice that they are related. Bet you can't wait to get her home and Friday isn't long to wait. Look forward to seeing lots more pics and hearing how they get on together :D

Oh I didn't realise your two had the same daddy as well! Looks like e have a lot in common cockapoo wise :) We definitely wanted them to be related, if we'd waited a few months we could even have gotten full sisters, but we didn't know the litter would be happening (not positive if it is yet-but Anthony wasn't expecting it either haha), & also we didn't want to wait! She'll be perfect :D Just can't wait, & you keep making me jealous :) I will post lots of pictures just for you don't worry :D Especially seen as our two are so similar looking :)

Mandy they are amazing. What is the insurance costing for two dogs?
Too much :( £40 per month for both of them. Think I need to investigate and find something cheaper. I think there's been a thread on here about insurance so I'll dig it out.

Are you thinking of getting another ;););) Would recommend it :D:D:D

Lovely Flo & Remy update Mandy :)

I did laugh about the puppy hanging off ears, Picnic has been doing that to Honey, Honey is so laid back with her ... I keep waiting for Honey to tell her off, but only happens when Picnic tries to swap pigs ears with Honey, they are doing so well....

Oh one problem Picnic likes weeing on the kitchen floor rather than going out in the cold.. she is keeping JoJo very busy ... :) puppy love hey ...

Cara, your question made me realise how much we were paying out so I looked up a previous thread and saw some comparisons Turi had done via Which?. I've just swapped over to John Lewis (£10,000) cover and I'm now paying £28 per month for both of them instead of £40 - (thanks Turi :D)

Mandy, they look lovely together, what super photos ... glad it's going so well. They look so relaxed and calm in the video too ... much more manic here!!! I put Bess on the lead to stop the play-fighting this morning as it had been going on a while and Maisie looked fed up with her ear being bitten ... but it was Maisie who went back for more! ... so I guess she's fine. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Bess doesn't really look like the puppy any more as she's already 2kg heavier!

PS. Flo's RSPCA bed looks lovely!

Maisie is so dinky I imagined that Bess would be bigger. When I saw Maisie at the first ever meet I thought she was a just a few months old and was really surprised when you said she was fully grown.

Flo and Rem get on well but I can imagine that the play fighting could escalate as Remy gets bigger, stronger and older so I am already training them to leave each other when I say - kind of works :rolleyes:

Flo's bed was a bargain from TK Maxx - just £15 rediced from about £50 I think. Some branches have a good pet section that is well worth checking out as some of the beds are great quality and I've even seen Pet Head grooming products at reduced prices :)
