All is well with us. We’ve had Pip’s Younger Human Sister’s young dog Percy staying with us while she’s on honeymoon. It’s been lovely having four paws in the house again. We’ll miss him when he goes home!

Hi Literate Lawyer! Thank you and have a great week. 🐾

Hi George! We hope you and your family are well! 😃

Thank you for your kind comments! We hope you are well. We’re gearing up for a summer wedding which the old fella would have loved.

Greetings from Oor Pip to Oor Wullie! Love also to your lovely tour guides Oor Wallie and Oor Artie!

Give our love also to Wullie’s pals The Broons and all Scottish Goldens!

Hi Dave - that’s a lovely picture! We spent and hour of so with one of Pip’s Golden Retriever pals today, a lovely dog called Watson. He is well loved in our town - every passer-by seems to know him! He is very cool and laidback, so he reminds us of our dear old fella who left us last September.

Well, Pip the Golden Retriever was a handsome fella! Best we keep the resemblance our secret though, as this might go to Dad’s head! 😂😂😂

Pip the Golden Retriever’s favourites were opera tracks: anything from was Das Rheingolden, or worlds by Pooch-ini and JS Bark.

It was lovely when the pic popped up as a memory on the phone yesterday! Have a great day.

He did enjoy a little local celebrity after the broadcast, as you may recall Grostaquin!

His days as a DJ (Dog Jockey) were numbered, though, although he enjoyed the fuss at the time!

That’s interesting - it’s like a tweezer to nip the head. Do you them use a twisting motion?

What a gorgeous Lab. lovely colour and, I’m sure, sadly missed. Do you used a special tool to remove ticks?

It took us a couple of goes and we weren’t confident at first, but once you’ve mastered the ‘tick twist’ you’re probably fine.
