The Goblin Sauron 💜 He's actually huge. We were told he was the same size, if not smaller than Hansel. He's almost the same size Mickey was. I'm quite pleased about this, even if it scuppers my matching twins outfit plans.

Goblin bebes 💜

(We were told Sauron was the same size as Hansel, perhaps even smaller...Sauron is a unit 🤣)

Sauron is becoming used to his new home and is an absolute chaos goblin. He’s most definitely a puppy and spends his time stealing, bouncing, playing, climbing, and screaming.

Hansel being anywhere between twelve (his official age) and fifteen (his vet estimated age), can’t be arsed. He’ll play with him for approximately five minutes a day.

We’re working hard to get Sauron house trained and up to a healthy weight.

Hansel is having a break after having a tantrum because I switched out the kitchen blinds.

Hansel Tigerloaf will have been with us for eight years tomorrow.

When he arrived, he was scared of everything (especially evil doorways), but now his latest favourite thing to do is grumble and moan when someone is existing in the vicinity and not paying an adequate amount of attention to him. If he's close enough, he'll also hit them. He's an absolute goblin.

He'll be twelve (allegedly) in May. I'll buy him a dog stroller...not because he can't walk, but he refuses to because he simply doesn't like the inconvenience and would rather be in his bed, eating snacks.

He will only have accidents on soft surfaces and will fly towards the rug to throw up because he doesn't like being sick on cold floors.

He bit (unsuccessfully, he's dentally challenged) Mickey one time for existing too closely to him, but to be fair, Mickey had sat on him earlier that day.

He can grip like a monkey, therefore he is able to climb things like wire fences, cupboards and trees. He doesn't do this now though because he can't be bothered, but he knows we know that he can.

His dearest wish is to steal the stuffed toy that is often left in the child next door's pram.

Very important photos of Hansel 🐕

[ice-creamforbreakfast]

One of the last photos of Sandy when he was fairly well. We took him and Hansel on holiday with us last September and had the best time.

I’m so happy we had the chance to do that with them and see take them on long walks in new places with different smells.

Sandy is on a vet-approved diet of food he would never have been allowed this week. Yesterday he had fried chicken and today he had some big slices of Lidl meatloaf. His appetite is still very much there, although he eats slowly.

Hansel is also benefiting from Sandy getting lots of treats, but not quite as much as he will be with us for quite some time. Hansel may outlive us all.

My baby is getting so grey 💜

Hansel is nine and Sandy is eight today 😭😍

With one pungent move, Hansel could end Mickey’s sofa stealing ways. #mickeythegreyhound #hanselthepodenco #greyhound #podenco #seniordog https://www.instagram.com/p/CSEyT8htEBf/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hansel is looking forward to getting back to the salon soon.
