Puppies

These are our puppies. The one on the right with the slightly darker nose and (out of photo) slightly shorter white portion of tail is Casper. When we agreed to take Casper it was because we were told he was a very quiet and shy puppy. It would be fair to say he has outgrown those behavioural characteristics. If there's trouble to be had he will find it first.


The fine looking gent on the left is Brutus. He has a white patch on his nose and the white portion of his tail is a bit longer. The only criteria that was required of Brutus was that he be visually distinct from Casper. As it turns out he is far more cuddly than Casper - and very easily led astray.

The kids can tell them apart - but it's cheating in the way they do it. Brutus has a black collar - and B is for Brutus and black. Casper has a purple collar - and P is for CasPer and purple. It works - although Hayz still likes to call them 'dogs' or 'boys'.
