New series The Dog House

Enjoyed it tonight. More about the actual dogs than personal stories about the adopters, just enough. How gorgeous was Pipit 😍. I could have happily taken her home.
 
I enjoyed last night too. That little girl was SO funny and I am not usually interested in the families as much as the dogs!
Nearly had a fit to find a Flatcoated retriever in a rescue kennels, the majority of breeders will take them back and rehome if things go wrong or there is the breed society rescue or the IFFR.
Hopefully a happy ending for that very sweet dog who showed al the usual flatcoat traits of kind friendliness and constant licking!!
 
A little update about the Flatcoated Retriever Pipit. His owners have joined the Facebook group for owners of Flatcoats, that I have belonged to for many years. They posted some lovely photos and are delighted to be in touch with other flatcoat owners.
They seem a lovely couple. So glad they are making friends with other owners of the breed.

That is brilliant, I was hoping they would find some other FCR owners.
 
I agree MM, I find it strange that they just let people they hardly know, be shut in a room with a dog. I know they are watching but how close is help if something went wrong?
I do think the whole thing is edited a lot. So obvious from the clients in different clothing or even hair styles.
They make it seem as though the people come in, say what they want and instantly get it, but I don’t believe it’s really like that.
 
Woody the Papillon mix would be my pick this week. Just a delightful little dog.

Grady the Lurcher was a close second. I wasn't entirely convinced that a young Lurcher was the correct match for a lady recovering from such traumatic injuries, but it looked to have ended okay.
 
I've just caught up on Sunday's episode. I would love to take Buster home he's essentially the male version of my Fodhla. Macie was lovely too 😍
 
I'm glad they didn't take Macie. If they were finding one spaniel hard work, then they would have been pulling their hair out with double trouble. Especially with such a young pup.

I was a bit meh about all of the dogs this week. None of them my type though.
 
I agree, it was an underwhelming week.
An excitable spaniel cross was not a good match for a young spaniel. The black spaniel may have been a lively youngster in his own right but he was very confused and not at all happy with that manic cross bred. The husky was a wrong match too. I felt the Chef needed a responsive retriever.
Still they do on the whole do a great job matching people to suitable dogs and I like the way the staff do work with the dogs to put a few commands, like sit and down in place for when they meet prospective owners.
