New member of the family

Well we now have a new member of the Family. Tania now has another "child", ABBA is 9 weeks old. Her name is ABBA (a bl~~dy beautiful animal), and was lovingly chosen by my wife. She flew in from Queensland on Saturday.

Was a very interesting night last night - very little sleep. hopefully she will settle very soon.
Doggy proofing the house and surrounds has been very interesting. Oh and she has very good lung functions

too much - 1050 plus the airfare - and the fence and the door upgrade and the kennel, and all the future vet bills and food............... so priceless would be the answer.

The dog is a Labradoodle

Hey Dave

Look at the positive side – no more being banished now, as there’s less room for you in the dog house!

Cheers

Dennis

Great choice of dog too.
She's very cute.
So are you going to rotate pick up duty between the kids?

$1,050 is a lot of wife dollars, too, actually.

There could possibly be a 12.5" RCOS on its way.
