They don’t miss a beat!!!
I proposed on her birthday on holiday in Lapland. She knew something was up as i was proper fidgety the night before, couldn’t sleep at all etc and she knew me too well! She wondered why i was up and about in the cabin at like 3am, as i’d never make that much effort just for her birthday!

I have wanted a dug for years, but always resisted because both of us are out all day so I don’t think it would be fair to the hound.
But reading all these poop related stories convinces me that what I actually want is to rent one on sunny days for a bit of a walk or run.

BorrowMyDoggy - Local Dog Walking, Sitting & Holiday Care
ETA - I have no experience of this at all but my other half goes on it to look at the pictures. I’m not sure I’d want the responsibility of someone else’s dog in case it ate something dodgy or got hurt in my care.

A few people around us use BorrowMyDog. I guess it’s a good way of experiencing having a dog without the long term commitment, especially if you are in a rented flat that doesn’t allow pets.
From the owner’s point of view, it’s a cheap dog walking service.
I’m not sure that I’d trust my dog with strangers and he’s not good with people he doesn’t know at the best of times, so I’d be concerned that he saw someone across the park that he thought was one of us and took off after them.

Have you explained to the big dog that when the puppy grows up he isn’t going to be the big dog anymore?

We are hoping he’s the “miniature” we were promised 
But you never know, do you?
They should be the same size.
His Mum and Dad were similar size to our big dog, but genes and nature and stuff!!!

Reminds me of those stories you see of people buying micro pigs that turn out to be just piglets and grow up to be fecking enormous.

Big dog is just normal size. Like to my knee. Maybe a little bit bigger. Only 18kg.
He’s a cockapoo (from a rescue place)
New dog is a labradoodle.
But “miniature” for them means normal sized 
We looked at a few from Dogs Trust, but they were really funny with us. Handlers and day staff really liked us and our (as then) current dog, but when we met the second interview person, it was just like “erm, no. Not suitable” 
Saw a couple of mint sighthounds, too.
Oh well, this on me was pretty “cheap” so we’ll see what happens
