Alan calls out for his big man, and he comes trotting.

Ellie and Douglas met Cuddy for the first time. The first non-human strangers Cuddy has met since leaving his Mum.

Cuddy wasn't too sure about Ellie and Douglas, he kept on hiding behind Alan's legs, peeking out timidly, and then boldly jumping out. Cuddy has perfected levitation, it's the most wonderful thing to see a tiny puppy jumping straight up in the air. He's working on his bark..............

Cuddy has no problem with being passed around from person to person.

He is just very sweet natured.

A real little charmer.

Cute as a button.

Quite frankly, adorable!
Ellie and Douglas were friendly enough.......... lots of tail wagging, and staring. Our dogs are tiny, but they towered over Cuddy.
Once they'd sniffed enough, they became more interested in seeing if there were any tasty morsels to be found on Susan and Alan's kitchen floor.

The big man has had enough for one day.
Perhaps Cuddy is Ellie's answer to Clover Meadow! I read a theory once that the young of every species are so cute so the adults will let them survive. But puppies and kittens can be dangerously habit forming for us humans! Cuddy's family are in for wonderful holidays.
All the best to you and Douglas and Ellie etc.

As 'big mans' auntie I have to tell you all that he is soooo extremely scrumptious in real life, even more so than Vanessa's fab photos! However Rory isnt so hot on Cuddy because his teeth are very,very sharp!
Hope Ellie's not getting too broody......x

That puppy is practically edible.
I'm thinking that you may have to give a health warning before posting pictures of The Adorable Cuddy just to prepare vulnerable readers like me.
