Flora at 11 weeks

Coronavirus - and the social distancing resulting from it - has inevitably had consequences to the way we live.  Both Harriet and Issy are now officially working from home, and this will be the "new normal" for the foreseeable future.  Luckily we have Flora to provide endless light relief (along with sleepless nights, it has to be said).






We've seen a bit of sunshine during the week, so Flora has been playing in the garden with Isla.  Mainly they have got on with each other absolutely fine, although it has to be said that Isla can be rather possessive where balls are concerned.  Flora is allowed to play with them - up to a point - but then she needs putting in her place.




Order is restored.


Flora the Explorer continues to live up to her name, and she now knows every square inch of the back garden.  Luckily it's now almost a week since her second set of injections, so from tomorrow she'll be able to start discovering the big wide world (subject to social distancing restrictions, of course).


 

Living up to the literal meaning of her name, Flora has discovered that pansies are edible.  I'm not sure that Harriet appreciates her flowers being put to canine culinary use, however.








Flora is definitely starting to grow up, although she's still very cuddly and loves nothing better than a warm body to lie against.



Why worry about coronavirus when there's a blonde puppy to put things into perspective?
