meet Douglas

You all know my beautiful border terrier Dexter don't you.  He is my best friend, and if I'm honest, my lifesaver and reason I am still here today.

Dexter turned 11 earlier this year, and for the past couple of years we always planned to get him a young playmate.  Well, on Wednesday we made the five hour round trip to mid Wales to collect...

Douglas!  Or Dougie.  Or Little D (with Dexter of course being Big D!!).  And here he is:

And her they both are, together:

Yes, things are a little fractious at the moment, but I'm sure that as soon as Dougie finds his feet and Dexter realises he's got a little brother for company they will be fine together.  Either that or I'll be moving out!
