Mary " Woodlands Blue Moon"
Mary has arrived!
George has been friendly.
William is his usual good natured and accepting self.
Albert tutted and walked off to kill something
And
Winifred is sulking by the back door
Let the chaos begin
Many congratulations John Gray and Prof, if, by any chance Mary needs a middle name you may use mine, Mary Norma it has a ring to it. (God knows what my mother was thinking when she called me Norma, had I been a bot she was going to call me Sonny), she is truly beautiful xx
To Miss Norm - I'm Norma Jean and I think the same thing about my mother - what was she thinking !! John - more fanny cloths ?? Your local Vet can fix that ! Anyway....congratulations...who doesn't love puppies. She'll be a great companion to all.

Hi Norma Jean, well I came off worse Norma Frances !! However having 2 Norma commenting on John Gray's blog, put forward an even stronger argument for Mary to have our name as her middle one. I crochet I could supply fanny flannels in various colours, I have not even mention God Mother duties, but, would that mean I would be landed with the vets bill. Nice to make your acquaintance NJ, best wishes NF xx
Oh, she is utterly adorable! Marylooks as though she has been expecting you her whole life. What a stunning picture to file away safely. I am so glad she is safely home and cannot wait to hear all about her and how she settles in with her new family. Congratulations to you and Chris and may she live a long, healthy and happy life!
Mary, Mary quite contrary How does your Ukrainian Village grow? - With tumbledown sheds and rusty old beds And runner ducks all in a row WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!
I have yet to meet a Terrier I don't like. and she is not the exception. All the best to the new member of the family. Many hours of chasing around, cuddling up, and sleeping content. You are going to be loved to bits.
Hello Mary ! You are a very lucky little one to live in your very own Kingdom with lots of other animals and love. Plus the Kings that will watch over you. Mary is adorable !
She's gorgeous John ! She looks as though she's weighing you up and working out exactly how to wind you round her little paw......and you are telling her what a pushover you are ! Poor Winnie - give her an extra cuddle tonight - she'll be feeling left out. Big hugs all round. The company we get our dog food from sells nappies for pups and incontinent oldies - whatever next?
OH she is wonderful! This news really lifts the tone of my day (doggy diarrhea and cat vomit.....repeatedly.) I am so happy she got a good home and you got a good puppy. Looking forward to hearing all about her (as often as possible!) Congratulations! Annette
She is beautiful, and you are obviously beaming with pride and love. I hope she finds her feet in your menagerie. And that the other inmates don't feel their noses are out of joint.
Oh look at that face ! I love her ... she is so sweet .. what a perfect pup .. Congratulations to you and congratulations to her ... everyone will be so happy with each other. All that love .. perfecto. Now I want a pup even more. much love to you and your new member of the family ~
Congrats! Glad the other Terriers have welcomed her. I see Welshies still rule at your home. I do seem to remember that you were thinking about an Airedale Terrier a few years ago.
Smooches from pooches, BabyRocketDog & Hootie (& mama Cassie, too)
Happy Christmas/Birthday, John. What a gorgeous present for your combined celebrations - and what a very thoughtful husband you have. Looking forward to hearing all about the extended gang's antics.
Woof woof! The lovely little lady has now got the best home in the entire Universe. I do hope she doesn't provide a pretext for the others to go into a jealous sulk, Winnie above all, with her tender sensitivities..
I'm late to the party as always. Damn that time difference. Everyone has said everything clever that I possibly could so I'll just add my congratulations. I do love me a puppy!
What a pretty girl, May you have many years of fur, poop, inappropriate sniffing of genitals (human and canine) and more LOVE than you can fill a cottage with. Delighted for you all x
