The puppy wriggles and sniffs at the edge of the blanket, and John finally admits defeat. Even if he doesn't really mind paw-prints or spots or bones.

"Guess I'm outvoted on this. Grey blanket it is, and -- whichever of this crates is sturdiest."

He moves to set down the puppy and begins checking the options, trying to work out if one looks heavier or easier to set up.

"Anything else on the list for today?"

Along with blanket and crate, that is. How much can they carry? John supposes maybe if he carries the crate then Ianto can carry the smaller things? Bowls and blankets or whatever?
