We've just lost our family dog at the age of 10 due to cancer, and we are absolutely devastated. We've rung the breeder to tell her and she just happens to have some puppies, so we are tempted to bring some joy back into our lives and go and get one.

Lucky thing. There is nothing more lovable than a puppy but they do grow up so quick. Pity we cant see a piccy of him he sounds sooo cute.

What a scrumptious puppy! The adult dogs have the biggest head of all dog breeds in the world. My daughter couldn't get her arms round the one we met at the fair last year, he was so huge and very gentle, not at all bouncy. Congratulations Abigail
