I am loving Modeling Paste....Messy....what can be more fun than a mess...

he's too cute!

Fred is starting to adjust to his new life...He has had a bath...started eating a little bit...learning to sit for a treat
....but still growls a little at Lucy.....and isn't sure if he is afraid of Rog or not....He jumps back and growls a bit at him too....The "fat man" just stands his ground and gives Fred the business when he gets to close to him....The fat man knows he is the boss in this house!!
