Favourite toys.



I do know that King George V's favourite toy, as a small boy, was a simple piece of wood, but Billy has far more refined taste. 

He has two absolute favourite toys, the cardboard box he arrived in, and the remains of Bok's half eaten Football.  In just a couple of months, he's already eaten half the cardboard box, and the poor Football has become reduced to a shadow of its former self.

Maybe this is why he's grown so fast.... too much protein.

Thanks for the chuckle. Young kids often do prefer the wrapping paper to the present! He's delightful

Cro Magnon said...

He's coming along nicely.

Yael said...

He looks like a child caught in the middle of a game, so cute.

Cro Magnon said...

He's very funny, but I suppose all puppies are. I almost wish he'd stay as he is.

thelma said...

He is gorgeous but wait for the 'teenage' years then there will be some trouble.

Cro Magnon said...

He's full of mischief already; nothing goes unchewed. Oven gloves are his favourite. My hands are covered in plasters!

Sue said...

We were told Rick did not play with toys. Now he cannot bear to be parted from his beloved Bunny.

Susan Heather said...

I wonder whether he chases the white tip of his tail or is it only cats that do that.

Carol Caldwell said...

He is delightful!

Cro Magnon said...

Billy runs around the house with his cardboard box; I've given-up trying to stop him.

Cro Magnon said...

Ho does do it, occasionally.

Cro Magnon said...

He's turning out just fine.

JayCee said...

Very cute. What do you think he will like to play with when the box and football are finally annihilated?

Cro Magnon said...

Sheep?

John Going Gently said...

he looks a delight

Cro Magnon said...

He's full of life; a ball of energy!

Jacqueline @ HOME said...

Haha !! Just like children ..... you buy them a lovey toy and they play with the box !
Billy looks so different now and that’s only after a week ! XXXX

New World said...

The boys will wear him out when they arrive.

Jennifer said...

What a cute boy! He's growing up fast.

Cro Magnon said...

The previous picture of him was a bit odd. This one is more like him!

Cro Magnon said...

Or the other way round.... we'll see.

Cro Magnon said...

He seems to grow every night.

Patty said...

Awww! Billy is so adorable! I can't believe he arrived in that box not long ago. He's grown so much.

Joanne Noragon said...

When does he sleep?

Lettice said...

It certainly shows just how much Billy has grown. The box is part of his history after all, no wonder he is very attached to it.

Cro Magnon said...

He was brought to me, lying on a bed of straw. It seems a long time ago now.

Cro Magnon said...

He's a very light sleeper. Short, deep, bursts of sleep seems to be his style.

Cro Magnon said...

Home from home. He's almost destroyed it today.

The Weaver of Grass said...

Cro - I can tell he has transformed your life and I am so pleased.

angryparsnip said...

He is getting so big. When iwinston was a puppy he would destroy any box he could get.
I have posted many of his battles of getting rid of these boxes that invade his home. We are so lucky to have these special gud dugs in our lives.

cheers, parsnip

Better than the home furnishings.

Doc said...

What a dear little devil.

Cro Magnon said...

Yes he has. He's made us whole again!

Cro Magnon said...

He's growing so fast, we actually notice the difference from one day to the next.

Cro Magnon said...

He'll probably get a taste for that later. Bok did!

Cro Magnon said...

That describes him perfectly.

Pipistrello said...

He is so adorable! It's amusing to think he drags the box around like a toy.
