A Nemo update

As it has been so long since I last blogged I will just give you all a quick update on Nemo's progress. He is now 6 months and one week old and last time we weighed him, at six months, he was 7 stone 3 lb!!!! And still growing OMG!!! He is as tall as Jess now but not as wide yet. I cannot believe he has got so big, so fast and he still has months of growing to do!

Taken today - Nemo is at the back, just in case you didn't know which one was which

Andy and I are very pleased with his progress, he is an absolute darling of a dog. He has his Mum's adorable nature and loves nothing better than a good cuddle - to the extent that he cries when he wants attention. He is really well behaved and has taken to his training really well. He sits, does down, wait and walks on the lead really well (unless Jess is with us when he tries to get her all the time)

This shot is probably a month old but I love it. My friend Charis bought Nemo this tiger, he loved it for all of 5 minutes and the promptly destroyed it. But just look at the size of his paws or his "pit boots", as Dianne refers to them. They are wider than my feet.

Much to Andy's delight now he has all his adult teeth, and they are beautiful white teeth just like Jess and with the the perfect bite. One thing that Andy is slightly disappointed about is that, as yet, he is not showing as much aptitude for swimming as Andy would like. He does love a paddle though and since he discovered the stream in our garden, take your eye off him and he is in it in a shot!
