Pebble!
Yes Cathy, you were right!
Liitle Miss M asked for the blanket to be for Pebble and I crumbled!
Pebble arrived yesterday and has settled right in. I am not one to go all gooey over animals in general but ……. I have to admit I’m smitten.
We had a black labrador in the 70s/80s called Dido, this is Dido as a puppy
and later, (circa 1974) curled up with Basil and Rue, our two rescue cats, next to the solid fuel Rayburn in the kitchen, on a very comfortable chair I bought in an auction for £1.
Dido went on to have 8 puppies and by the time of this photo was taken, with my son (then two and a half, now 44) she was heartily fed up with them!
The next photo is when Pebble met Little Miss M and Master R for the first time, after school yesterday. She snuggled in and went to sleep just after this photo was taken with two very happy children, beaming from ear to ear.
My daughter sent me a text this morning to say Pebble is very happy with the Rainbow blanket and slept on it last night, and sent this photo, saying that Pebble seems to be a fan of the scrap happy blanket too.
Happy Days ahead!

🙂 she loves the blanket and makes a little nest in it by scrunching it up around her before curling up on it to go to sleep 🙂

Is there anything more adorable than a 6-8 week old puppy? Pebble jus oozes cuddly puppy softness, and the blanket will be well loved by her. I knit a blanket for Max, granted he was past teething, but he has laid on it in the winter for years now. It just fits in his dog bed, so it like sleeping on a wool mattress, he loves it!

Yes, so adorable! Good to know about your blanket – it will be interesting to see what happens with the Rainbow blanket.

Pebble is absolutely darling, but I’m worried about that gorgeous blanket! She’s a labrador, and she’ll be teething soon, will it really be safe? I would be inclined to put it away and let her have it when she’s grown up a little bit ^^

I appreciate your concern Claire, but I have handed it over now. I am not attached to what happens to it. It will be interesting to see how it fairs though.

Puppies and children are a great combination – they look after each other and wear each other out!

Good point! I am looking forward to the time when we can all go on a walk together.

As one who does go all gooey over most animals, I consider Pebble a very worthy recipient of your beautiful blanket although, as Cathy says, how long it will last is anybody’s guess.

I forgive you for this as Pebble looks gorgeous- but don’t blame me when it disintigrates into a chewed up rag- speaking from experience and what happened to Coco’s blankets.

I am fully prepared for that – it was a blanket made with left overs whilst doing other things, so not at all precious to me. 🙂

I think all black dogs seem to love brightly coloured backgrounds to be admired against! She’s gorgeous, looks so soft and cuddly with that sweet blunt nose and silky ears.

She is lovely! Will she be living with you or your daughter and her family? The blanket is absolutely perfect for her! 😃

She will be living with my daughter and family, so I get to puppy-sit but can hand her back and have none of the responsibility! Yippee!
