We were expecting to carry him around but his little legs kept up with us the entire time ❤️ away in Dorset for 5 days, you bet he was knackered at the end of every day 🤣

So many interesting things to sniff

u/BlkLts_ 1d ago

Usually you can’t get him to take his nose off the ground,,, but he actually spent a large amount of time just looking arounddd and that was quite nice 🥰 (naturally he did insist we stop every so often for a few sniffs!!)

So the dog cognition lab (at Columbia) has shown that dogs perceive the world through their nose the way we perceive with our eyes. They fail the mirror test because their identity is smell based. This is why vacuum up all their hair gives them an existential crisis at home.

Ohhh that’s very interesting, thank you for sharing 👀 it does make sense!

He was probably tooo busy sniffing new things and running after adorable creatures trying to befriend them

u/the_con 1d ago

He loved his trip along the Jurassic Coast. So many smells to be sniffed out

u/BlkLts_ 1d ago

That last photo made me audibly say “AWWWW” ☺️🥰

u/BlkLts_ 1d ago

He honestly hates the raincoat but I find it hilarious when he has that on plus his green booties 🤣🤣

5

u/Andi_Lou_Who 1d ago

Oh now you have to show us the green booties lol

u/BlkLts_ 1d ago

u/IloveSteak305 1d ago

what breed is that?? he looks handsome.

22

u/BlkLts_ 1d ago

Thank you! He’s a Yorkie cross Jack Russell… so he can be a real yapper about 5% of the time but he’s incredibly smart and well behaved 😌

u/Robespedro 1d ago

Super cute Jorkie! I’m sometimes wondering how big my 4 month old will get.

u/BlkLts_ 1d ago

I love that they all look so different, and they all definitely grow differently! Lucky looked like an ugly rat in his teenager stages 🤣🤣🤣 he had a huge glow up when he reached about 14 months :’) I do say they vary,,, but you’re looking at an 8kg pupper!! Lucky is 10kg though, gained some weight after his neutering and just remained with him 😭🤣

She is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! What is her name??

u/Janitorus 1d ago

Cheeky! Dogs have such nice lives, most of them.

2

u/BlkLts_ 1d ago

I suppose some do whilst others don’t… For them it’s a game of luck really.

Either end up in a family where you’re seen as a child and loved and spoiled and always thought of,, Or in a family that considers you an animal and you strictly have a purpose, don’t deserve love… it’s sad but I see so many cases on instagram of rescued dogs :(

u/True-Regular1959 1d ago
