How To Make Your Dog Sit Up ..... and pay attention !

Tilly and Annie both have lovely markings and Paul enjoys photographing them - if they sit still long enough!
Walking them with our son recently, he decided they'd arrived at a suitable spot for a photograph, but they weren't so sure .... until our son got some sweets out of his pocket and began to rustle the wrappers !

Tilly & Annie
We have a really biddable young lad staying named Freddie. And if one thing makes Freddie really happy it's the chance to play with a tennis ball ! Only a few days ago a really biddable young lad named Freddie came to stay. It quickly became apparent that Freddie liked to play with a tennis ball, so we forged an immediate bond using one.

Freddie keeps his eye on the ball .........
..... got it !
Running in the opposite direction, though with equal enthusiasm, is Honey, our 4 yr old Chihuahua who we were given at 6mths of age.
Capture Honey when she decides to suddenly run rings around you and you'll capture a little dog with a huge smile !
A few turns and she's having a turn, resting by my side panting heavily, glint in her eye ....... before something in her little head tells her to do it all over again !

Believe me, you'll never catch this little character !
And finally there's always Maddie you can rely upon if you want a mouse ! Despite being a well trained gundog who's won competitions, nothing shows where her true feelings lie better than her face !

"Can we come here again tomorrow .... and the next day too ?"

Let me introduce you to Harry, an Italian Spinone. Harry arrived yesterday for a day's "try out", prior to any long term boarding. He's as gentle as he looks and those eyes .... ! Janet

Summer 2019 - sunshine and showers

How wonderful to see a dog express his enjoyment at being in water as much as Bear does. This youngster loved our muddy ditch and ran up and down constantly. But then came the washing and drying of Bear and the question "why did I allow him to do that ?!" Bear .............and then there was Murray ! Murray Heidi, a recent residential training youngster, loved to let off steam by jumping through the air for a tuft of grass. This Munsterlander was quite a sight, as her long legs allowed her to get quite a leap. Heidi Mick, enjoying some playtime in the heather ! Mick Bert is famous ..... well, in a way he is. Rachel's lad is on the front cover of a certain 2020 calendar. Photograph by Paul.
