00:00The dog then. Five brothers, and all of them are very active. I quite like a night in with a book, rather than running around the wild with the little ones and the bigger ones. So the dog wins on that occasion.
00:15He's just one of the family. So we just treat him as, well they treat him like a child basically. But no, he is just one of the family.
00:23Tell me about the wee dog then.
00:25Well he's quite big now. He's a golden retriever. He's called Leo. He's a nightmare basically. He's not very good at taking orders.
00:35He barks a lot, but he's so lovable that we just feel as if he is just part of our family.
00:43He's just a pal I can sit around with to be honest. I don't really have any real intense feelings, but I have probably. I love my dog, but yeah, he means just a friend I guess.
