It has come to my attention that I don't tweet pictures of Lucky Spencer-Dale, my furry son, as often as I should. Let's rectify that. [1/?]

Here he is napping with some of his fellow cuddly toys.

For scale: Lucky (right) and an extra-large kitchen roll (left).

At the weekend, we took Lucky to a doggy splash day at a local outdoor paddling pool, where I tried (for the second year running) to coax him into having a swim.

Reader, he hated it.

Can you spot the non-stuffed dog?

What?
LUCKY is evolving!

"What, *this* toasted seeds sensation crust? Nope, pretty sure it's mine."

Gettin' dressed.

Nice day for a sulk.

I'm reliably informed it's #LoveYourPetDay, so here's South London's Proudest Pup, Lucky Spencer-Dale, showing off his new red collar.

Befur & after.

Lucky, 2pm:

Ahh, the mythical Puppy Long Legs.

Lap(top)dog.

What do you make of these record temperatures, Lucky?

Today is the fourth birthday of our lord and cuddly saviour, Lucky 'Chuckles' Spencer-Dale. Please sign our petition to make this a national holiday.

I think this is the new Best Photo of Lucky Ever Taken.

This thread hasn't been updated in wayyy too long. Let's amend that with some pics of my boy settling into his new home.
