The new guy

Introducing Skittle

We met him in Oct 2012 while at a fundraising lurcher event as a 7 month puppy, he was such a happy puppy it was easy to fall for him but with pepper needing all my attention and care it was impossible to take on another dog, we were lucky enough to spend 24 hrs with him in our home before he went off to his new home.

Then In May 2013 we lost pepper, by June I was looking about to see what lurchers were available and I spotted skittle back in rescue, I made enquieries and by July we were fostering with the idea of adopting if all went well.  It took just 3 weeks to discover that he wasnt going anywhere else, he remained despite bouncing twice back to rescue purely because the adopters did not understand what skittle was about or what he was very clearly telling them or asking of them, a very happy and accepting lad, just a bit bigger than I remembered as a puppy and a bit louder.

So a few shots from recent days to show his absolute zest and love of life, a great honor for the original nutty lurcher pepper, the next generation on, he has taken up the challenge to follow on her blog
