Throwback to Ruby’s first few weeks at home 🥹🐶
I’m so glad I took some videos during that first fortnight because she already looks so different!
As you might remember, the poor little love hasn’t had the easiest start in life. Alongside all the usual challenges of puppy life she had to take various antibiotics and steroids, and we had to try and treat multiple wounds to stop them getting any worse.
But for every challenge and setback, there were a dozen proper belly laughs as she got to know her new environment. On her first day at home she wouldn’t even get off my lap to explore and we wondered whether she was going to be really shy and timid… but by the same time a week later she’d firmly established herself as new queen of the household. We’d been deluding ourselves thinking we were in charge. Somehow in the evening the tiny toy Cavapoo ended up with my extra large best blanket all to herself while my Mum and I sat on the sofa trying to share the small one that was hers. Make it make sense.
All she wanted was to be carried around and she cried any time we went into another room or she forgot where we were. Even if you’d only been gone for a few minutes, the moment she clocked eyes on you she’d absolutely lose her mind with excitement and spend the next 5-10 minutes saying hello all over again. I wish more than anything I’d filmed her reaction to seeing me in the morning after her first night here. She almost lost her mind with happiness, and I’ll never forget it for as long as I live.
I know the puppy stuff isn’t for everybody and I’m trying my best to not go too wild with sharing all the pics/vids (you can only imagine how many are on my camera roll) so might just scatter in a few little updates like this occasionally, especially while she’s growing so quickly. Thoughts/preferences?
Life is hard for a lot of people right now, so I hope at the very least you’ll find some comfort/enjoyment in spending a few moments with a teeny tiny floof. She’d say hello to every one of you if she could 🙈🥰
