@ukhaiku Bembo gained a pound a month for ages. Seven months or more. The effect isn’t so drastic later on, of course.

@ukhaiku When he arrived, he weighed less than 2 Kg. He gained almost 0.5 Kg per week for months, so after a fortnight, he was 50% bigger & after a month, twice as big. So grab lots of photos because taking one a week later won’t be the same!

@ukhaiku I’m sure you’ll manage a few pictures! Puppies need lots of sleep.

@kdfrawg One of the unanticipated side effects of having a dog is that we now eat breakfast out quite often.

@jpa I don’t think they sleep very soundly in this weather. Shame they can’t just toddle off to the bathroom, though.
@matigo Just think how politics could be transformed if politicians were kind to one another! I don’t suppose that’ll happen, but the rest of us can try.
I’m not a fan of royalty, but I saw a story a few weeks ago about a surgeon who went to an official event with the queen and was so traumatised by his recent war experiences that he could hardly speak. Apparently she sent someone to fetch her corgis and just sat with him at the formal dinner, feeding the corgis together under the table. I thought that was a wonderful thing to do.
