Not another foster puppy!

I have a few points before we start.

1: Yes this one will live!

2: No we are not keeping it! NO! We're not!

A dog walker in Newcastle came across a bundle of cubby fluff about half the size of a house cat but with a bit more meat on his stubby bones, who had an unfortunate wound on the top of his little head. They brought it to a local vet who gave it a nice monk-esk hair style, cleaned the wound and passed it on to the RSPCA. So the unnamed puppy arrived at Westfarm Kennels where it spent a night waiting for staff to come in the following day.

Tuesday morning, I took a call from Jaime starting with "Its another one of those days... where I ask you if I can bring home another helpless animal"... I was already compiling a list in my head of reasons not to have another, squeaking, clawing, smelling, biting, sleep depriving kitten in the house. Only to be told of the puppy... and being a sucker for a dog hard luck story, home the puppy came on Tuesday night, on the condition, Jaime was on pee and poo duty.

Various names were put forward for the puppy most of which related to his less than flattering looks, but Kodi (short for Kodiak Bear) was settled on as it seemed quite appropriate for his chunky stature.

Kodi is sleeping through the night in a crate in the kitchen, going to work with Jaime during the day and when he's home in the evening he's the most stressful thing in Loki's life. Duffy on the other hand is fascinated, he is keen to play with the puppy but we have to be careful not to let him get to rough, Duffy is a fan of batting with his front paws and the last thing Kodi needs is another bump on the head.
