The new arrival
Saying thanks and goodbye to John.
Monday saw the Wigeon coming into my care from the rescue centre. She had a wonderful start to her life from mum, Teasel, and John the rescue centre manager and his team! As I said I've not had a pup to bring on for 11 years so this is probably going to be a bit of a culture shock to my routine for a while. 11 years older I might be but I'm not sure about being 11 years wiser. I put in a typo of '11 years wider' then! How true that bit is.
Travelling home was fine. 60+ miles and not sick once. A re-assuring cuddle from new Granny Liz and all was well. There was a dog cage in the back in case Wigeon was horribly car sick, but not a bit of it. This 8 week old took everything in her stride and wasn't even put off by big lorries on the motorway. She arrived at her new home in Scotland and now a whole new chapter in Wigeon's life begins.

What lovely pictures.
If I didn't have my scruffy Scotties and lived an ocean away. . . I would be adopting one of these pup ! That is the cutest puppy I have seen and looks like you and she picked well !
"The Boys" Watson and Hamish will be waiting for your updates ! me too...
Hooray. And goodness, but you're beautiful.
Best wishes for your new life, little dog.
Hi to you and your boys Parsnip. I'm really enjoying my life here in Scotland. I do get told off but I probably deserve it! My new companions are fun too and I do test the patience of a saint with the old hairy hound.
Titus, well you met me in the flesh and I thought you were great too. Did you see how fast my tail was wagging? I love meeting new people. x
I've grown a lot and so my new owner is going to put an update on asap.
