Hello again. The humans asked me to write this. They get a lot of questions about how to find an Italian Greyhound puppy for sale. This is a very serious post so do not expect any jokes or giggles.

Personally, I think all puppies are runty little pests and I don’t know what you humans see in them. When Tino turned up I hated him. And when Theo turned up I hated him too. It’s alright now, I told them how it is and I’m still the boss so all is good.

I wasn't a pesty little puppy, I was a right little nightmare. Except for when I was asleep.

Anyhow, this is what I have to say to humans who think they want to find an Italian Greyhound puppy...

Most of the time it's alright being a dog. It's alright being a working dog too. My job is not very strenuous – I’m Chief Product Tester at Charley Chau.

This mostly involves going to sleep in luxurious dog beds and having to snuggle under cosy dog blankets.  When my dog friends hear about my job for the first time they think I'm a jammy b*gger. But actually, it is a bit of a pain as I'm an Italian Greyhound which means I prefer running around and causing carnage to sleeping.

Baaa! The Charley Chau gang as you've never seen them before! It's the Italian Greyhound Rescue Charity 10th birthday party this weekend (Sunday, 22 June 2014)  at Gawsworth Hall near Macclesfield in Cheshire and we are very excited about the fun dog show, particularly the fancy dress class! 

Oh my. What a night Saturday night turned out to be. As many of our customers and other friends know we were shortlisted as finalists for the Fusion 2014 Entrepreneur of the Year Award in April and Saturday was the night of the spectacular gala awards ceremony and we won the award! 

An insight into how we manage to capture shots of our four little Italian Greyhounds like this, and all the other photos that we post everywhere ...

We moved office recently which means we're having to learn how to take photos in the light that we have in our new space. I've spent some time this week (in between other jobs) taking photos and fiddling with my camera. Not quite worked the light out yet but we got some fab new shots for our Greywash Rattan Dog Baskets page and then there were a whole heap of Theo that we didn't use so I thought I'd share here ...

The first of the updates to our fab collection of luxury beds and blankets this year ... we've updated our fabulous Raised Wicker Dog Bed so it's now available in three of our most popular fabrics from our collection of Spotty fabrics: Great Spot, Dotty Chocolate and Dotty Taupe.

Theo was hanging out on his fave bed this morning, the Raised Rattan Dog Bed, and I caught some nice shots of him being handsome ... 

It's a bit grey and gloomy at the moment so this morning I thought it would be fun to bring out something bright and cheery and settled on one of our fabulous Double Fleece Blankets in Red. Theo agreed and we spent a lovely morning together in the studio.
