    We are minding Fraser for a night. He's about 4 months old.

    Fraser is better behaved than Obi, seen here mauling my hubby for a chip.

    Although Fraser does have his moments, like playing tug-o-war with some of his crate bedding....

    Obi stole Fraser's teddy, which had to be put up on a cupboard.

    Fraser has learned that if you are given a treat with a Labrador in the vicinity it's not wise to drop it on the ground for closer examination. You won't be looking at it for very long.

    Obi has learned that Border Collie puppies get about four times as much dinner as grown up Labradors. Not fair.

    Sausage roll manufacture is a fascinating thing. Fraser is squeaking with excitement.

    Fraser is gorgeous!
    Sophie says if she catches a flight now, will he still be there? :D

    Obi is being a great host :)

    Here's a short vid of them playing this afternoon: http://instagram.com/p/pNY6ZIM1NL/

    Right now they are both exhausted and sleeping. Though that will change when the sausage rolls emerge from the oven.

    Jac, Fraser will be here for the next 16 hours. Flight is much longer. So, no..... Sophie would love him though, he's a little gem. Calm, very sociable with people, dogs and cats, not too high energy - a very happy and easy going little chappie.

    Super cute pup! I think collies seem very refined compared to labs.

    Yes.....poor Obi. He was beside himself with anticipation. Then it got put in the puppy's crate. Oh the wailing and lamentations!!

    Obi says thank you, Julie, for noticing. It's winter here, so he's gone a bit heavier with the eyeliner.

    Obi says that this puppy minding business really takes it out of a person...

    That's his tail's best angle. It's a bit brushy in profile. It's got heft though...

    The top of Obi's tail is perfect, I notice it each time I see it. :)
