Superb colour and presence, you have to admit. Another dog who could go around Doncaster in his sleep. Fifteen wins, but pulled up lame back in February. Fully recovered now and trialled since, however he was done with the game and finished 14 lengths behind the winner. Something we hate to see.

Is he downcast? Hell no! Box of frogs, vitality oozing out of every pore. Full of energy, you could get exhausted just looking at him. This is not the dog for quiet strolls. Dude was so delighted to be going out it took ages to the get the lead on him. Should be connected to the national grid.

He may evolve into a sober dude at some point but not yet baby! Not yet!

Welcome kiddo.
