Hi, thought I'd post a couple of pics of Ben who I adopted through the RSPCA this morning, and collected this afternoon .



Those are the only 2 good pics I've managed so far, I'll post more if and when I do better :b .

PS Big thanks to Lolcoe, my personal dog dating agency!

Yes i can vaguely remember you saying that David :- "

Could be the K9 bug kicking in (w00t)

This time last year i said i fancied getting a whippet, now the 2nd one is on its way!

Thats strange he looks just like my whippet pup (will be one at end of month), including the ears :lol:

Thanks everyone for your positive comments. Ben seems to be settling in nicely so far . I've just spent most of the day trying to burn off some of his considerable energy, shame I can't let him off the lead yet cos he really does want to have a good run around . He saw a cat whilst we were walking and nearly pulled my arm out of it's socket and frantically scanned around for a good 5 mins trying to figure out where it went!

Errr.. he's not exactly a whippet :- " . I blame this website...and the individual I mentioned earlier (and Rebel).

What a handsome lad  :wub:   To me, he definitely looks like he has German Shepherd in him - obviously mixed with something smooth and running doggy!

I was told he's a whippet x lurcher. The lurcher must've had GS in him/her, I can definitely see it in Ben

Ben is 2 and ended up with the RSPCA due to a family break-up, rather than any abuse or neglect, so he's a reasonably well balanced fella, plus he's housetrained and knows a few basic commands (landed on my feet with this one ) He was in the kennels for 3 weeks but he's not too clingy, and he's happy to play or lounge around, which suits me perfectly.

My camera is new and most of my pics have been of a dog shaped sillhouette, but here's a couple of the (vaguely) useable shots I've managed today...

 

[Farwells]

Dog shaped sillhouette :b .

We actually had typical Cumbrian weather today...rain, hailstones and a freezing wind this morning, warm with blinding sunshine this afternoon :blink: .

 

[Lolcoe]

Im really glad he has settled in and being good. I do not hold myself responsible for your choice of breed :- " :- " :- "

But i suppose hearing "Rebel this and Rebel that" might have some bearing on it!!!

He's absolutely lovely and yes you have done well with him :thumbsup:
