Hello

Apologies for the length of time it’s taken to send you an update about the puppy I got from you in September (he was the last one left of your cavapoo litter).

I named him Finley and he’s proved to be a bonnie little chap - funny, sweet and bold. He loves play fighting with my other cavapoo, Cooper (they’re like Scrappy Doo and Scooby Doo respectively), making LOTS of noise, getting as muddy as possible and getting plenty of belly rubs and snuggles. He’s become very attached to me and to Cooper and has lots of friends - of both the dog and human variety.

As I think I mentioned, I’ve been in the process of moving out of London to the country, which has taken an inordinate amount of time, but which I hope is imminent. So, in the meantime, Finley has been enjoying city life along with lots of walks in the countryside around London, where he’s appointed himself *mint-sniffer-outer* and walk *meet-and-greeter*. He adores other dogs and people, to the point he’s most indignant on the rare occasion someone doesn’t stop to make a fuss of him (he can give pretty impressive side-eye!).

I’ve been trying to ensure he’s well-socialised and has lots of opportunities to learn, grow and have fun. He’s also been on a little adventure to Scotland on the Caledonian Sleeper. He was a little nervous of the train at first, but conquered his fears and is now a seasoned traveller. He also occasionally goes with Cooper to my dog groomers, who also runs a doggy day care - and he has a great time playing with the other pups. They assure me they love having the pair as they’re so full of pep and fun they tire all the other dogs out very successfully.
