So, after a lot of family debate, extensive research, and basically giving in to the kids we have decided to take the plunge - we're getting a puppy.


The next steps are to decide what is right for us... a specific breed, a rescue dog, a puppy, a slightly older dog. It feels like a lot more research yet to do before we get one.


We're also looking at the cost of keeping a puppy/dog.


In order to help me with my research I'd be grateful if any of you other dog owners out there in East Dulwich could provide some help.


Vets - are there any vets that come highly recommended, and why?

Insurance - would be grateful of any good insurance companies. Dont want to pay the earth but at the same time want to ensure there is adequate cover.


Look forward to hearing from all you dog lovers.

Please get a rescue. Ours came from Battersea. They help you find one to fit your family. We are insured with Bought by Many who are superb. Premiums depend on breed,age, cover etc so it won?t help you to know what we pay but it may help you to know they have paid all bills without fuss.

    • We did London to Avignon, which was a dream - changed at Lille and the journey south was smooth and so much more relaxing and scenic than the inside of an airport / Easy jet plane. I'd thoroughly recommend it. 
    • That looks like a dahlia tuber.   The clumpy, swollen shape with sprouting white roots is typical of dahlia tubers that have overwintered in the ground. They often look a bit mutant or alien, especially when several tubers fuse together or grow in odd directions.   If you dug it up from your garden and it’s not slimy or rotten, it’s probably still viable. You can pot it up or plant it directly in the ground once the risk of frost is gone. Keep the knobbly end (where the stem was) just at or slightly below the surface and water it in.   If you’re unsure, you can leave it somewhere warm and bright for a bit and see if shoots appear. That’ll confirm it’s a living dahlia and not some rogue tuber trying to cause confusion.
    • Sam did a great job of restoring our rather weather beaten and rotten external wooden doors and facia board. highly skilled and very reliable. would definitely recommend
