Absolutely gorgeous and a star into the bargain, he is going to make a lucky family very happy.

Lovely pic of Tigger, and he sounds so good

I'm now sleep deprived after just one night! Tigger appears to be nocturnal.

He's been really good and knows where his bed is and that is where he should lie, he just hasn't quite grasped the sleep part yet.
First he woke me up by licking my face about midnight, then again about 1am.
At 2.30am he was pacing around and squeaking so I took him out to the toilet and he settled down afterwards until about 4am.
Lick, lick, he wanted a clap before settling again for a whole hour.
5am was when he found Sky's squeaky monkey toy and decided to put the squeaker through some stringent testing.
He had his prey and wasn't for parting with it either! Who would have thought squeaky toys were loud enough to rouse the downstairs neighbours
Monkey is still alive and squeaking although has undergone some hair removal, and my bedroom is now covered in blue fluff.
Tigger has learnt to play though, so the growling stopped when I went to remove monkey from him and turned into a tug-of-war and bouncing dog.

6am is when I normally get up. Of course the alarm went off, I got out of bed and Tigger was sound asleep right across the door. He can sleep soundly when he wants, I had to haul the duvet across the floor as he wasn't for moving.

He seems pretty settled though given he's only just arrived, just need to get him to appreciate daylight more.

What a gorgeous wee devil!! Hope you get a proper nights sleep soon!!

Shirley and the gang

Tigger looks lovely in the picture, is he small or just look small in the picture?

I sympathise with you get up last night, there must have been something in the air cos Kai was up and down ALL night. First he was to warm (22.30), then to cold (00.30), the I need to bog (04.00). If he squeaked after that I was in a coma. (other half & dugs with me )

And yes he was having a nice long snuggley sleep in when I left home.

Must be the name - my Tigger was much the same the first night and has her moments off and on! 

Tigger is a star!
He was fantastic overnight, he was pretty much asleep right through from 11.30pm until 6.30am.
He wanted breakfast on waking up and then caught me off guard and started to relieve his bladder in the kitchen, but STOPPED MID-FLOW when I said no!
How impressive is that? He managed to hold the rest in until I got him dressed for outside too, so hopefully that is a good indication that he'll be housetrained very soon.

Yesterday I walked him into town and although he seemed perplexed by things like buses, he was fine with all the noise and strangers coming up to say hello. We ventured into Pets at Home to get him some toys and he was really well behaved, he barely paid the rabbits/g.pigs any attention and only had a quick sniff at the dog food.

Picking out some toys was funny though, despite being muzzled he managed to steal a few and started playing with them in the shop, bashing them around with his paws and nose so they were scooting all over the floor.
He quite likes balls with a fabric cover, and he got a wee squeaky sausage dog that probably won't last very long, but his favourite seems to be the glow in the dark squeaky doughnut.
He carried it about for ages last night squeaking it constantly and once he'd done playing he put all the toys in his bed!
TIGGER TIDIES UP!

Here he is making his video debut

Tigger's Movie

Isn't he great stopping mid-stream!  I remember at the start of having Biscuit he started in the house, and continued dribbling as I carried him outside - so well done to Tigger.

He looks very puppyish in the movie, so he is obviously discovering his lost puppyhood, the wee soul.  He looks really gorgeous.

Fab video of lovely Tigger - The music to the video is brilliant. Im sure he'll find his forever home soon

What a sweetheart! 

What a great video!  Tigger looks like a really contented lad!

One week in and Tigger is doing great.
He's been a dawdle to housetrain, and he now walks on his lead without pulling at all.

He sleeps in his own bed all night, and is happy to sleep in another room all by himself.

Tigger did discover the comforts of the sofa a few days ago but he is responding to, "No".
If I don't catch him trying to climb onto the furniture, moving him is a bit more effort, but he's a bright boy, he clearly knows what "Off" means, he's just trying to push his luck at the moment.

I've had to leave him alone a few times and he did whine quietly for a few minutes on and off but then settled.

He's also been great with other dogs. He's interested in them but not in a bad way. We met a little, fluffy bouncy dog the other day, and she was chasing Sky all around the grass while Tigger watched. When she came over to see Tigger he had a very quick sniff then hid behind my legs!
We haven't encountered any exceptionally small dogs yet, but when a squirrel crossed our path yesterday, although Tigger got excited he still didn't pull on his lead.

He's a great dog who has now discovered the joy of cuddles (and hot dogs).

Tigger sounds and looks wonderful,loved the video. Nora 

Update - Tigger went off to his forever home after only 8 and half days with me. Not only that, it turned out I knew the family as our kids used to go to dance school together.
A very happy ending :)
