These are the photos of our new puppy from Rosedale Doodles. We have called her Lily and she is 8 1/2 weeks old. Her mum is a red, show cocker and dad, an apricot, miniature poodle. This is her first day at home and so far so good but not sure how the first night will be!

Hi, Well it's been quite hard work but every day has got a little easier! On the first night (in her puppy crate) she woke and cried a little about every two hours but we didn't rush down to her each time, only when it was early morning. She had soiled but it was on her puppy pad in one corner. Last night, she slept through without crying at all. She is learning to cry/wimper to tell us she wants to go outside to toilet in the day time. (We have made a doggy loo using bark chips in one of the borders in the garden) Having said that she wees about every hour and after a nap, play or any excitement. They are tiny little wees and sometimes she does them really quickly without warning. She's also had a runny bottom on day two but I read that can happen with the stress of separation. All in all, she has done really well and lies around like she is really comfortable with us all. She sleeps a lot, has a mad 5 mins and then sleeps again. Loves cuddles and follows us around everywhere. Been out in garden a bit but not sure of wind and bird noises. She is having her second injection next week and the week after, we can go 'walkies' She has lots of toys but you have to watch her for chewing on your boots and other clothes she can reach. Not sure if we are doing everything right but we are still finding our feet really and learning more each day about a new puppy.
