Nice pictures Niamh, they bring London to life. Excellent stuff.
I have been busy with a new arrival in the family. He needs so much time and attention, I just can't read or post on the internet any more:

What an adorable little boy!

Great photos! It seems you've got lots of room for him to run round in too.
I miss my black lab now. I remember when she was a pup and used to nip at my heels when I was a wee kid.
Thanks for all the complements. Max IS a real show-stopper. Yes there is a lot of space for him to run. He is already trained to 'sit' and stay 'down' and he is very good at fetching although he is only 14 weeks old. He has never made mess inside the house and waits till morning when I let him out to do his business. I love him to bits. Never thought an animal would change our lives so thoroughly. He has enriched our lives as a family.

A pet, especially a dog for me, is incredibly enriching to a family. I once had a boss who said that after children a dog completes a family. He sounds like a real smart one and you must be training him very well.
Actually Kafka, check out my blog. This entry has a few picturs of my Brandi: http://www.online-literature.com/forums/blog.php?b=7933.

Oh, Brandi is so very beautiful. I can't wait till Max grows into a big strong boy. He is absolutely manic. I do hope he grows out of this madness. Thanks for the real heart-warming story of that Australian dog in your link.A pet, especially a dog for me, is incredibly enriching to a family.

Exercise is the answer for that. A tired puppy is a good puppy.Brandi is a great fetcher too and she is incredible at catching things in her mouth that are thrown towards her.

Awww...Kafka Crow, what a darling puppy. Is he a cream or golden lab? I love his baby photos. I take it that in the last one, is him nearly a teenager. He is adorable.

Last photo was taken last Saturday. Max was 13 weeks old then! He is a pure-bred 'yellow Labrador Retriever' although his colour scheme looks like milky cappuccino with chocolate sprinkled on top!
Virgil, we have started going for short walks. Fun and games never end. Still he is still awake, looking for more games (it is 0230 BST!)

Kafka, he's ADORABLE!! I spent my weekend with my brother and sister-in-law's new Golden Retriever puppy and her sister (Owned by my sister-in-law's parents). They're both 9 weeks old now : There's nothing so cite as a new puppy when they're still all fuzzy and have the puppy waddle
I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
Waiting for a winter to be done.
Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
In all that I could never overcome?
Kafka, your puppy is beautiful! I love the puppy stage, but they are even more rewarding when they grow up and you have a well trained companion. You can never feel lonely when you have a dog
"Oh the clever
Things I should say to you
They got stuck somewhere
Stuck between me and you"
My aunt found these little orphans on Easter day in her garden when going out to church; needless to say she never made church. We went there for the day and a big family dinner. Here are the darling little triplets:
They are thriving quite nicely now but she has to get up at 2 and 6 in the morning to feed them from an eyedropper. I wish I wanted one; but 'been there, done it' and now we are petless. Still I think these are so darn sweet; all black. And cute they ended up on in an Easter basket.
Some cheery spring daffodils on my aunt's coffee table. Lovely, aren't they?
