It's cold. Very cold.

Since late November we have been "enjoying"snow and some very cold temps. At the moment -8pm - it is -10c and the temps have not been above freezing for several days.
But the Eden Valley is one of the nicer areas to be in if you're going to have snow. Just look at the photos below.



But wearing numerous layers, I'm out with the dogs whatever the weather.

Recently I've had a "training" dog stay with me. Snap stayed for two weeks and was collected on Sunday. I was very pleased with the progress achieved and Snap's owners were also delighted.
Last week Roly, a real Heinz,stayed with me for a few days boarding. If ever there was a time for boarding in a person's house this is it. Night time has seen the barometer drop to -18c!

Tara, a regular guest stayed for two nights. She really is so pleased when she gets out of the car and sees me again. It's a wonderful feeling.

Then tomorrow I have Ginny coming for Christmas. A 12yr old Lab, her owner is unable to take her with her when she stays with relatives.

The Italian Connection - Harry the Spinone

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

"Come on Chief, smile !!"

"Come on Chief, smile !!" That look from 9 mth old Chief tells me I'm lucky to take even one photograph of him ! Chief is just one dog who has stayed with me since the New Year, either for boarding or residential training. Nearly all can be seen on my Cumbria Dog Training Facebook page, and with a husband who is more than cabaple Peanut enjoys the fells. Meet Nala, a beautiful Portuguese Water Dog, who, at 7 mths old is still displaying alot of puppy traits. She's staying for a 24 hr try out and has fitted in really well. I'm pleased to be able to say that Peanut is staying with me again. This young Cocker is such a lovely girl who makes herself right at home and gets on so well with everyone, both people and dogs. And finally, time for my own girls !

Keep Cool Sumo !

Few things are nicer than a beautiful summer's walk being finished off by a cooling swim in a beck, hidden from all and known by only a few. Paul's dog Sumo is in his element here, with the joy of jumping in, then swimming to retrieve a tennis ball. Sumo leaps for he's worth. Bert has figured out how to leave the far bank to cross the beck but unfortunately for him, he's sitting on the last rock. Next step will be into the water.....not a thing he particularly enjoys. Bert  A beautiful image captures a beautiful dog - Lewis, a Black Labrador. Lewis  Chester is a regular boarding dog and his owners asked Paul to take a series of photographs of him while he stayed with us. Here is just one of them. Chester What can I say ? This is me having alot of fun - especially with Milo, a Pug X Shih Tzu.
