I have two dogs . . . one elderly, fear aggressive dog who has been attacked by a dog who lived in our house which left him very damaged (it's a long story), and the other who was adopted specifically to be his companion who is the kindest, most tolerant and amenable dog to all dogs she meets...

For short trips for wet/muddy walks our pup (springer possibly crossed with collie and/or corgi, but defo springer-sized) does just fine in the boot loose. She has blankets to curl up in, and I drive very considerately when she is there and we don't go very far. I would probably re-think for...

DinkyDog doing what she loves best . . .

Amazing result - much deserved. Ros Canter is super cool, and how lovely to see the selectors proved right. PS

I'm writing this "air side" at Dulles Airport. So . . . I was supposed to have picked the new girl, G, up about three weeks or so ago now. That hasn't happened. My Dad had a massive heart attack. All of my immediate family (Mum, Dad, brother, his wife and my 2 nieces) live in the...

The connection. P

Little GingerNut and I took the first step in building our relationship today. I went to pamper her and on the suggestion of her current owner bandaged her up and took her to the lunge pen. I had been told she throws some impressive moves on the lunge - oh boy does she! She is very much...

She's a sweet pea. I'm looking forward to getting out and about with her. P

Have messaged them to you x

No shoes . . . and that will help her mismatched feet. If I could keep the Idiot Boy sound with his extreme club foot, I'm not worried about this girl. She'll stay barefoot if it works for her. She's currently got rock crunchers . . . so I'm hopeful that we can keep her without shoes. But...

Ha ha . . . sneaky, sneaky me ;). She's still not mine until she's "home" if you know what I mean . . . and I've kept quiet because I am trying to be respectful of her owner who is having a rough time right now and I don't want to jinx anything. She's coming to me on long-term loan for now . ...

And, yes, I know her feet don't match . . . that right fore is a little boxy - ditto the left hind . . . but she's low mileage until now and I know how to manage her to keep her sound. She won't be hunting or eventing with me . . . nor will she work on deep or hard ground. She isn't...

a) Yay - glad you can see her; b) How odd! She looks bay in all her pics, but she's defo liver chestnut . . . just really, really dark. Also, she has bird catcher spots on her face and neck - she has one just to the right of her left eye - like a beauty mark in reverse. Can you tell I think...

Can you see them? P
