Summer days almost here!

**cecily** · 26th March 2007, 08:26 AM

Haven't been on in a while so thought I'd make up for it by posting heaps of photos from Dougals first trip to the beach! (and possibly Tandie's! We're not sure. she seemed to know some of the seagulls though!

)

Apologies to those who don't have broadband...

Look how he's grown... 6 months old next monday!

Tandie went for a short swim

Here we all are.. v. far away I know.

They made friends with the gorgeous retriever in the background, who wasn't so gorgeous when he marked me a bit later on

You can really see how big Dougal has got here. He's almost as tall as Tandie now

So tired...

Looks like you are enjoying them both! and what lovely photos,

Dougal's mum,

Please get Dougal a boy colour harness

I have enough problems with my little brother Oakley thinking he is gay and he has a black harness.

Yours Merlin, the tops man

Edited to Add from Merlin's mum - Dougal is a beautiful boy and ignore what my Merlin says........

@ Merlin and his mum...

Great pictures Cecily! They are so cute together!

Wow! Cecily, Dougal's really grown. Thanks for posting the pics, I wondered how you all were doing!!

Tandie seems to be really getting along well with Dougal - they seem like best buddies in those pictures!!

Merlin (the tops man),
So sorry your little brother is having issues. But pink is very in right now. Perhaps you're not up to date with 'Dogmopolitan'?? Luckily I'm comfortable with my sexuality.

Yours,
Dougal (top pup)

P.S. (from Dougal's mum) Yes there have been some protests about the pink harness, not least from Dougal's Dad but we had it from before and he's growing so quickly it seemed pointless to buy another Medium when we already had one! He's already far too big for his two small harnesses (see buy and sell...). But when he's big enough I'm going to get him the most macho large puppia I can find!!!!

What fun pictures. I can't believe how big Dougal is getting. Love the pictures of him and Tandie cuddling. Hey....he's a boy who is confident with his manliness!!!
