Ha no hobby time this week! A new member of the family has joined the Quinton household
Meet Alfie!
Alfie is a 14 week old Springer Spaniel who arrived with us on Sunday. It has been not quite the same in the house with just the one dog and everyone has been moping about and probably a bit down since we lost our younger lab Morgan back in October. Alfie has shined a light back in our lives and has certainly livened things up!
Full of beans and a lot of fun he certainly brought a smile to our face. Never had a springer before and he is comical.
Random Zoomies!
Have a good weekend folks and hopefully some sort of normal service will resume shortly :)

Excellent stuff!
ReplyDeleteGood luck – every springer I know is crazy!
Just as crazy as labs it seems.
DeleteCool. Looks a bit big for 28mm, though.
ReplyDeleteI wish his poops was in 28mm!
DeleteAh Springers: the looniest of the Spaniels... He'll certainly keep you on your toes!
ReplyDeleteAh he is good fun and gentle :)
DeleteHad a spaniel when I was a kid, such a great dog. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, I never really grew up with one and Alfie is our third pooch. Wouldn't be without one if I could help it now.
DeleteLooks like a marshmallow dipped in coffee :) Hope the older dog isn't jealous :)
ReplyDeleteYeah he is Liver and white. No he doesn't seem fussed I think he is glad of the companionship as he has been moping a bit since we lost our other lab back in October. He puts him in his place when he gets to boisterous but Alfie idolizes him and follows him everywhere.
DeleteAwesome. Spaniel's are great. Will keep you busy, but will be a lot of fun too :-)
ReplyDeleteO definitely enjoying the diversion :)
DeleteAbsolutely gorgeous, we always had Springers in the house growing up and would love to have one now - sadly the distance to work would make it unfair on the dog.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame. I am lucky we are always in and out throughout the day so never alone for very long and they have each other when we are out.
DeleteWelcome Alfie - I suspect hobby time will be curtailed somewhat! :)
ReplyDeleteJust a little bit but its been a mental week in the household with plays, work and all the other Xmas stuff that goes on.
DeleteHouse just isn't the same with out a pup.
ReplyDeleteMost certainly indeed!
DeleteSpringers are notoriously mad as a box of frogs...good luck!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlfie is hilariously funny but so gentle :) Having great fun training and playing with him. Though since our lab is 10 I had forgotten how its like walking spaghetti at first.
DeleteCocker spaniels are just as nuts, have fun man!
ReplyDelete:) Aren't they all though tbh :D
DeleteCute, so cute...love its beautiful face!
ReplyDeleteThanks he is and very handsome his fur is silky to the touch.
DeleteBrilliant news, Simon. You and your family must be so pleased with the new arrival.
ReplyDeleteWe're all chuffed especially my eldest Carmen loves him to bits!
DeleteOne of the best reasons not to paint I would think.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed!
DeleteYou have got some work ahead of you, springers are mental, but they are absolutely amazing dogs once they calm down a little. Lovely dog :)
ReplyDeleteI don't mind the work best companions in the world.
DeleteHe's a real cutie!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteSooo, I'm betting that he wees everywhere and chews everything, right? It'll be quite a disruption to your household if I'm even half right on this...
ReplyDeleteNot really he was well house trained when he came to us (One of the previous owners was highly allergic quiet sad really) apart from excited wee's he goes out in the garden. (There will be accidents of course) chewing hmm yes a little but he has plenty of toys to and bones occupy him.
DeleteBrill. Hello Alfie!
ReplyDeleteRuff Hello Warlord :)
DeleteHe's lovely Simon! Here's to many happy years with him.
ReplyDeleteThanks I hope so :)
DeleteHola Amigo
ReplyDeleteFelicidades por el nuevo familiar,espero que todo os salga bien.
Felices fiestas para todos
un saludo
Fine addition to the family - and a wonderful time of the year too! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteAs a spaniel owner myself I can only say you will absolutely love them and me completely exhausted haha. They are mad nutty hounds.
ReplyDeleteBark bark bark ... lose translated => Hello Alfie! Be careful around your master's minis now. By the way, tell your master for me to have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. :)
