Transcript

00:00On Saturday we travelled to St Helens to finally pick up our new puppy who we've decided to

00:10call Ted. So there he is in his crate getting used to it, he was quite sleepy when we picked

00:15him up but it didn't take long for him to have a go with all of his new toys, lie in

00:22his bed, have his tummy tickled and find his voice. Have a look at this. And this is Ted

00:39on his first school run in the car in his car bed and harness. Oh and there he is getting

00:45up to mischief in a Hello Fresh box. And this is probably his favourite toy, his ball in the

00:53garden. Playing with anything he can find which also includes slugs and leaves at the moment. So

01:02is it like having a newborn like people keep saying? Well no but there are crossovers so

01:08there's a definite lack of freedom at the moment because he hasn't had his second vaccination so

01:12can't really take him anywhere or put him down on the floor. I am up in the middle of the night

01:18to take him out for a wee so he doesn't wee in his crate although the crate training is going

01:22amazingly. Toilet training, I can't put a nappy on him and yeah we're still figuring that one out

01:28so there's a few accidents but yeah overall it's going brilliantly although I am tired.

01:35He is a little bit bitey that's just one of the other things and he doesn't like showers we've

01:41discovered. So yeah there's a few things for us to still get our head around, a lot of learning to

01:48be done but he's such a fantastic little guy and I'm so glad that we've got him.
