Double Take!

This afternoon, Sophie, my mum and I went to visit Whitehall Garden centre in Bristol to have a look at their Christmas displays.

We often visit this garden centre as it's quite small, quite reasonable and very dog friendly. It will undoubtedly feature heavily in Cheese's socialisation as they have chickens free roaming, plus rabbits and guinea pigs in hutches, as well as lots of pushchairs and wheelchairs around and exciting things that can be sniffed but not nibbled.

I had a bit of a "moment" as I remembered all the times that I'd brought Bran with us to visit, but caught my breath as I spotted one of the gorgeous garden ornaments that they had for sale. I really had to do a double take as it looked so realistic!



It was very tempting to buy him so that I could have a yellow lab in my house/garden NOW, but at a smidge under £100 I felt that the money would be eventually better used on lovely things for a REAL dog  ;o)
