Hi all,
I really hope these photos work. If they don’t I’ll send them onto someone who’ll put them up here for me.
Well, Coco has settled in now and is a fully fledged part of the family.
C has become really attached to her and just rolls around the floor playing with her. Coco has her bed in our kitchen but has taken over the beanbag in the living room also. I actually caught C and Coco flaked out on the beanbag the other day covered up with a blanket !!!!
My flippin camera is still away being fixed, so I’m missing out on so many photo opportunities. We went to visit my sister last week and she took the photos above.
Coco has had her stitches out from her Spaying last week and the vet said her wound was fine.
She’s great on the lead now, just trots alongside you when you walk. Her recall is great too. She’s really fast and loves catching the ball. She prefers it when Cathal walks her ‘cos he can throw farther, unfortunately I throw like a girl
A’s Montessori Teacher brought the class to the DSPCA a couple of months ago on a field trip, and they learned how to approach a dog properly without scaring them. She asked Cathal last week if he’d bring Coco to class when he was collecting A, so that the children could meet her and practise what they had learned. A was proud as punch when Coco met all of her classmates. Coco is still the talk of the class !!
I’ll give you another update soon, when I sort out my camera I’ll get some better photos of her.

Congratulations on getting Coco, we also adopted a chocolate lab in February, best thing we ever did. Ours is Tyson, aged 4. What a sweet dog! We’ve been bringing him to doggy school on Sunday mornings cos he’s so strong and likes to bark at other dogs and it seems to be helping.
anyway congrats again, enjoy Coco!
