Bienvenidos Toffee


Another hot, sticky day, for more reasons than just the weather. Toffee came to live with us. He's 6 months old, a mere pup compared to me. Big paws for such a whipper- snapper, but he'll soon get the sharp end of mine if I get any trouble from him. He's really quite cute for a cachorro. I suppose I'll have to learn a new Spanish phrase "una vida de perros" - a dogs life.

Before he arrived Toffee spent his life at the Sierra Nevada Animal Refuge. They have really taken good care of him hence why he's a pretty cool chap.
