All nice and ready like angel1

So far ~ So good.
Kai is settling in nicely, Today he has treed two cats who had the nerve to come into the garden, totally ignored the postman's ring at the door bell, chosen where he wants to sleep at night (under the stairs), barked at unfamiliar noises near the house, walks well on the lead, ignores most other dogs, cyclists etc but is happy to make friends with callers once I have told him they are okay. Couple of pikeys came to the door flogging "Tree Surgery". He came with me to the door and simply bared his fangs and they vanished. He sits at the roadside waiting to cross, doesn't pull over much and when he managed to slip his collar immediately sat and waited for it to be put back on. He does not look to be fed at the table when we eat although can look very mournful when anyone has a sandwich but he leaves us alone when we eat, ignores cups of tea left on the coffee table
All in all just what we were looking for.
Oh and he is a big softy who likes lots of cuddles but by Christ when he treads on your foot you know you've been trodden on. Weighty isn't the word. He also bullies the boys who are still a bit wary of him so he gets biscuits out of them when Woodstock and I won't give him extras.
We are sticking to the two feeds and two walks a day routine that the kennels used with him and it seems he can tell the time as he lets us know when food is due and then won't settle until he has had a twenty minute walk.
At the moment Woodstock is out shopping. the boys are on their laptops in their rooms and I am in my study so he has positioned himself in the hall where he can keep an eye on all doors and is sleeping with one eye part open.

Puppy Update:
Last week, as reported, the mutt had his nuts removed and is sporting a hooge "Elizabethan Collar" i.e. a plastic bucket just like BM's (this alone may explain much methinks) The stiches are due out next Tuesday and the collar may then be dispensed with. The removal of the protective bucket will be a relief to us all as it is transparent but the stoopid animal can't judge the edges and keeps barging into everything, furniture, ornaments, bookcases, my fooking shins and so forth.
Now minus his two veg he has taken to humping anything he can get his paws on ...... Shrugs:
He has a small duvet in his basket .... he was humping that just now. Minimus found him at it and said "Ah! He obviously is hoping for some pillows" ..... Now where does an 11 year old get a sense of humour like that?

I blame the father ::)

Which, funnily enough, is exactly what Woodstock said! evil:

The pooch is now 15 months old and has settled in nicely ..... Problem is he seems to be the stooopidus dog in the werld.
Let him out, at his request, so he could have a pee in the garden. There is a hell of a gale blowing and sundry stuff is flying across the lawn. He wandered out into the wind, sniffed it a couple of times, clearly decided that the lawn is too muddy for his purposes so pissed all over the front off-side wheel of Woodstock's car then sat on the driveway with his nose in the air and his ears being blown backwards by the wind. Why stooopid? Well he sat in the only puddle on the drive for at least ten minutes. WTF is that all about I'd like to know.
No he doesn't seem to have hemorrhoids or I could understand it.
Bloody daft creature. noooo:
