It seems there is no shortage of people happy to dog sit!

He is slightly less adorable when he sees another dog though, barks and barks and pulls to get to them, don't think the other dog walkers are impressed... But he just needs to learn how to socialise and we are going to try out a training class next week and sure we will get there with him!

On leaving the rehoming centre he still had a slightly unhappy tummy (he had not done a solid poo the whole time he was there and was a big reason for the delay in getting him home) but we had a feeling it was stress from the kennels and we have been proved right as in under a week his poos have gone solid (I know a bit too much info, but I know you guys understand the importance of a healthy poo!) which is great!!

I think we may have some separation issues when I go back to work (currently signed off as the site of some surgery on my foot 3 years ago swole up before Christmas and is refusing to get better - dr said rest and walking too and from a bus is just too much...) I get the feeling he really missed human interaction, he is a pretty submissive dog and always aims to please (although he can be stubborn too) I think we should all be happy together!
