Meet 'Archie' the newest member of the family born on 27th December 2003

Archie (Araidh Vettriano) is out of Ch Araidh Devil May Care (Carey) by Ringmaster Light The Fuse (Luke) bred by Lesley McFadyen (Araidh)

At the moment this clever little boy is paper trained and can 'Sit'

Archie's favourite games are trying to eat newspaper faster than you can pick it up and playing with his little red rubber kong and hoop as well as his favourite dinosaur soft toy!

Katie is his new best friend especially since she gets to eat most of his leftovers!

Archie goes to puppy school now and has made quite an impression on the other puppies, the little dinasour toy is no longer 'alive' and Archie now sits, waits, lays down, stays and comes when called, he is also somewhat surprisingly a very natural retriever, I only hope this continues!!!

Archie now at 15 weeks and still a natural retriever - Although this has turned into somewhat of a challenge!  He carries large stones, coffee mugs, hose pipes (switched on) large padlocks and anything else he can find!

He now has his own paddling pool in the garden, as he absolutely loves water and has been in the koi pond!

Archie has just started his show career and has qualified for Crufts 2005

Archie is now just coming up to two year old, and a little git! He is now just over 2 years old and has his KC stud book number
