Hey Ripley!! Oh man - congrats on the new baby-bro!! So glad to hear that you are giving him lots of love, but also letting him know his boundaries and what the pecking order is (ie. Ripley, Mum, Dad, Barkley then Lola).
Things are great here - Christmas is in full swing at the ranch!! Mum bought a massive tree - have your parents put a tree up? Dude - they are so much fun - you can drag baubles off the branches and hide them. I also love attempting to drag presents away so that I can chew them, but Mum always stops me before I can get a good grip...that's a long term project though - I think that before Christmas I can definitely get one demolished, maybe two.
Tonight I had my annual Christmas-photo-portrait done. (Not sure what 'annual', 'photo' or 'portrait' mean, but the whole experience was super annoying - Mum kept telling me to keep my head still but there was just so much to look at that it was really tough to concentrate..)
Anyhoo - congrats again on baby Barkley - does he throw the ball yet? In my experience humans aren't really that interesting until they can throw balls and/or sticks...
Big hugs,
Oscar xx
