Hi everyone!

Dont worry he should eat soon, as for the water as long as he knows where it is he will be fine.....if hes still not eaten or drank at bed time just pop some in his crate and he should have a little through the night.

Dont worry as soon as he finds his feet he will be fine

ok, thanks guys.

You're already being a massive help.

Thank you.

ps - what do the red names mean on his pedigree????

Oh cool, guess that's a good thing then

btw Becca, we absolutely loved Bailey too, we wanted to sneak him out with us too.......lol

I have cat bowls for Poppy as I found the dog ones to big.
Poppy didn't eat much the first few days. What I did was put a bit on my finger then I put it in her mouth once she got the taste she soon started eating.

He's lovely glad he's settled in well for you.

Bailey is such a dream....hes one hansom little guy and his coat is amazing.....i have a soft spot for the blacks

ahhh he is absolutely gorgeous

I know - we do that a lot Becca!

Aww what a little cutie, he is gorgeous. Hope you all have a lovely peaceful first night.

Yeah Emma had some in her hand and he started to eat a bit more then so that worked well too thanks.

He's asleep undermy legs now as I'm typing though so looks like he's comfortable with us.

He is definitely a sleepy little baby, although I hope this doesn't mean he will want to play in the middle of the night.

They are a friendly bunch here, but watch your spelling when you post because if you get that wrong they are mean mean mean!!!

I hope I dn't get too much criticism for the spelling....especially when it becomes common knowledge that I'm an English teacher lol

Yes they are no dont worry we are all fab on here

Oh he is sooooo handsome !! Make the most of this time...they grow up soooo quick!

he is gorgeous bet hes going to be a handsome chap it will be great to watch him grow up on here, and like lynn said make the most of the puppy days as they go by so quick

We plan on doing exactly that, although we are looking forward to having a gorgeous dog as well though, taking him for walks etc.

He was so good last night, only a slight whimper at 7.30 this morning but I was up any way so it's the time I planned on feeding him and taking him outside.

Wow what a yummy litle puppy Marley is and sounds like you got a real there.

Away for one evening and all these lovely piccy's to catch up on.

be here all moning at this rate

wow you were a lucky mummy to have a lie in till 7.30!! Well done Marley and have loads of fun with your new family

Wow Marley sounds like he is going be a clever little boy, using his pee pad straight away and sleep through the night...you're lucky!!
He is a stunning pup and will make a handsom chappy!
Willow was off her food slightly for the first 24hrs or so, so don't worry about that too much.

Have fun!

thanks, he's still being very good on the pads, although he has done a poo in his crate. I think that was largely due to him being fed late though due to us trying to get him to eat something last night. At least the wee's are all still hitting their target good and proper. Still not really eating very much though, any hints??

And btw, it's his daddy thats being posting these.....lol

Try not to worry about him eating it took Poppy a few days before she started eating properly. I just kept putting on my finger and then into her mouth till she got the taste.

Ok, thanks Karen, we'll keep up with the hand feeding for a little longer.

Dont worry, aslong as hes eating a little then thats fine, i always give mine cooked chicken and mince as puppies but always mixed with their food

Im soooooooooooooooooooooooo pleased hes been a good boy for you and by the sounds of it your doing a wonderful job....keep up the good work.

If you want to chat or are still a little worried you can always give me a call and i would be happy to help out if i can

Thanks and thanks again, you never know we might just take you up on that offer and then you'll regret it. lol.

We'll see how he goes tomorrow and thenwe'll try the other things as we couldn't really just put it down to the settling in period.....
