It’s a couple of weeks since Wren, the fox-red Labrador puppy came to live with Daughter. She’s not quite ready to go out for walks yet as she hasn’t had all her vaccinations, but we decided it was time to properly introduce her to Buddy our big black Lab. He’s healthy and we were in Daughter’s garden, where no other dogs have been.
Buddy is pretty good-natured but doesn’t really like the way puppies jump up at his face. With lots of reassurance (and treats) he was really patient with little Wren. She certainly wasn’t intimidated by his size! She is tiny next to him
There was a lot of sniffing and tail wagging…
…but Wren took it all in her stride…
…and Buddy was a very good boy.
Then it was time for a walk. Daughter has been putting Wren in a backpack, worn at the front, to take her out and get her used to seeing traffic , people and other dogs.
After all that, Wren was worn out!
