Cuteness overload!!!

Crikey ..... he's arrived AND he's cute. Mum, Dad and I had to drive to Brisbane to the airport to pick him up. He came all the way from Melbourne in a plane.  Poor little mite. You'd have thought he'd be scared, aye??  Not him!!  He's going to be a tough little bloke I think.  Mum let him out of the crate and his little tail started to wag and the only time it stops is when he's asleep. He's a people dog. He loves people. He's not into me so much which is just the way I like it. He's ok but I'm top dog around here and that's the way it's going to stay.  When we got home he and I had a bit of a play around and then Dad took me to the beach while Mum took the little bloke over to meet his new family. She put him in a Santa's bright red pillowcase and tucked him, in it, under her arm. She'd arranged with our Jen to have the little girls all sitting quietly on the lounge when they arrived and Jen had told them Mum was coming with an early Christmas present and they had to be good.  Mum bowled in and placed the pillowslip with the puppy in it on Jo's lap.  She reckons the little girls eyes were as wide as saucers when they realised what was in the pillowcase.  The little bloke stuck his head out and the oooooohs and aaaaaahs started.  Crikey ..... everyone was so happy.  He's a great little bloke and settled in so well. Everyone loves him.  Hmmmmmmmph!  I'm a bit put out but even I have to say he's cute and he pretty much leaves me alone so it's not too bad.  He's back here today. Jen had to take the girls to the dentist so we have to puppysit.  Fair dinkum ..... Mum NEVER gets a break. She thought now that it was school holidays she'd be relieved of babysitting duties but no .... now she's got to puppysit.  Oh well ...... at least he's less demanding than the kids.
So without further ado I'll introduce you to Herbert Von Irving ..... Herbie for short!!  Crikey ...... that's a handle, aye??


He's got a set of eyes on him, aye??  So blue but Mum thinks they'll change. 

He does that frog legs at the back thingoe.  So cute. Why can't I do that?????
This was a selfie Mum took on the phone coming home in the car.

He does like me a little bit, aye??

Wanna run ..... love, Charlie.

  13. Charlie..................oh did you hear us squeal with delight as we read the most wonderful story about his arrival...BTW did they name him yet? Your mum did a great job with the details of his arrival. We felt like we were sitting right by the little girls when she presented them the pillowcase full of love and wiggles. YOU ARE TOP DOG AND DON'T FORGET IT...YOU HAVE THE LONG NECK AND LONG LEGS AND IT MAKES YOU FAST AND HANDSOME TOO.
    BUT WE MUST ADMIT THOSE ARE SOME GORGEOUS EYES THE LITTLE BLOKE HAS. WOW they are sea blue. remind us what is his breed?

    The last photo is adorable. I think you have a matey for life like it or not.
    Hugs madi your bffffff and Mom

  16. Herbie is a cute looking blue eyed boy Charlie and I'm sure you two will have lots of fun in the future but......I have to admit that you are my topper, you are taller, slimmer and faster, especially on the long run.
    Have fun together!

  21. OMD Herbie the Spoodle is so handsome - we LOVE his eyes, but of course, we are partial to blue anyways;) Those little girls must have been over the top with joy and excitement. All our best to the new little furry and his sweet family.

  23. He is a wonderful looking pup and what amazing eyes, but you are very handsome too Charlie. While there is not much chance, what you need is some cold weather so Herbie wants to cuddle up to you for warmth.

  24. Oh Charlie....you gots yourself a new little brother FUR Christmas! Welcome to Blogville, Herbie! :)

  25. Not a puppy! Oh, Charlie! Run! Hide! Lock your crate! Tell him you'll talk to him in a year or so. I can never handle the puppy phase again. Macy almost did me in! *ear licks* Noodle

  26. He's a very cute little bundle Charlie, but we prefer your handsomeness and maturity. You'll have to teach him the ways of the world !

    1. Crikey ..... thanks for dropping by. I don't know you. I tried to see if you had a blog I could follow but I came to a dead end. It sure was nice of you to visit. I would like to visit you if I could.

    2. No, sadly, we don't have a blog Charlie, our human person says she doesn't have time ! We've only just found yours (via Bouncing Bertie), so have added you to our favourites !
      We'll tell you a bit about ourselves though. We live in Spain, and are two retired breeding yellow Labradors. Petite-Chose is eleven years old, and is French, and has had 26 pups - phew ! Our humans drove all the way to a little village near Geneva to collect her. Inca is seven years old, and Spanish, from near Malaga, and has had 5 pups. Now we are in our forever home, with our English humans, in the hills behind the Mediterranean Sea, on the Costa Blanca.

    3. CRIKEY!!! I'm so glad you found your forever home and I'm sure glad you found me. I hope you tell me a little more about yourselves from time to time. You'd know all about puppies, aye? You could give me lots of advice about Herbie and how best to deal with him. I'm glad my mate Bertie told you about me. He's a good bloke. So nice to meet you and so glad we are friends.

    Now that is an interesting handle to go by:)
    Petcretary says she likes the Herbie handle too. How did he get the German part? From the breeder?
