Say hello to Harley (also known as Little Git, Little Sod, The Ginger Rat & various other names depending on the seriousness of his crime!
), our Irish Setter.
He is 18 weeks old & a bundle of mischief. He has absolutely tons of character & has pestered poor Sam (our Field Spaniel) to death. They are inseperable but more than once I have come downstairs & Sam has had a nervous twitch to his eye & the look of a harrassed single mother!
Since being with us he has wrecked the garden & thinks it is his right to sleep on the sofa. He is very fond of backchatting me when I tell him off & rather than Sam setting a good example to Harley, Sam has picked up Harley's bad habits & follows his lead. This has lead to helter skelter runs up & down the stairs at 3am in the morning, when they were caught their faces were 'oh, [****]! We're in trouble now!'
Digging up of the garden, including upending an entire flowerbox & it's contents. And more recently, pee'ing on the rug just for attention on Saturday!
I'll put a few pics up here for now & will add some proper ones once I've sorted them out properly on Photobucket
His first few hours with us & as you can see, Sam does not know what to make of him at all!
His very first evening with us;
Excuse the poor quality, took this pic with my camera phone & it came out rubbish but you get the general idea of how teeny tiny he was.
A more recent picture;
You can see how much he's grown when you compare his size to Sam!
And one from this morning;
Caught in the laundry pile which he knows is against the rules. Not that he gives a damn as you can tell from his expression
He has grown loads since then! I'll edit this post & add some more pics or put a post in the Gallery when thepics have finished loading to Photobucket & I've had chance to edit & re-size them
There are loads of them
