Puppy Thoughts

Nicola's updates mean the world to me, and knowing which pup is which is also wonderful and will be invaluable later on. It's far too early for commitments, but to distract me from Mother-gate I spend a lot of time looking and thinking. My thoughts at the moment are that if there is a male and female with similar show potential, then it would be wiser to take a female. I know it's always easier to win with males, it always has been, even in the days when classes were numerically much higher there were less males, but there has to be more to it than show success. Worst-case scenario, and Siska doesn't conceive again, then if Kez is here, there is a backup plan. But of course if a male is outstanding, then different plan still needs consideration!

A Place In The Rain



A phone call, a walk, a cup of tea and biscoff cake, and an adventure with a secret. Just the change I needed!

I wish I could say it was all my own work - but it's not - I had AI assistance!!

Walks Towards Llyn Cop


I'd love to say two lovely walks, but Meerah was a right handful and seemed to forget I was on the end of the bloody lead! On top of that, I'd put my dark glasses on, and I couldn't see to walk comfortably on the uneven path. Beti also pulled like a steam train towards the lake, and with both at full pace I struggled. 
The second walk was easier; Sammi was off the lead for most of it, and Zeus was great, other than the usual tangles in the lead. 
The last two days I've felt really emotional, to be honest, I'm struggling. The situation with Mum has totally taken over my life. Even when I'm home I get calls from OT's, my brother and lots of odd calls from my mum. You laugh or cry, depending on your mood, but when she rings you and says she's sorry she was trying to get BBC1, well, you laugh. I do hope things can get better for everyone again, I just can't envisage it carrying on like this indefinitely. 
Now, just to add the tophat on it, that bastard sheep and her lamb are getting back into the field.

Today

Well what a night. I think it was one of the most dramatic storms in my lifetime. Whilst it was impressive to watch, I was worried Sammi would be freaking. (I was at the Dog Club AGM) I was so pleased when I got home to find she was not too concerned, but I was quite taken aback that Steve had had to crate Orin as he was totally freaking, and Zeus had trashed the bedroom.
Today's weather has been more sain for me and the dogs, but again I was unable to walk today. 
I had yet another early morning text from Mum today."I need help and I've lost Jackie this morning." So off I went to arrive the same time as Jackie, who wasn't lost at all! LOL Take into account that it took me an hour or so to get organised and get to Tremadog – Mum was out of bed, washed and dressed, but hadn't managed to make it downstairs. The chairlift was accross the stairs - OMG I went under it! You have to laugh don't you! 

Miss Meerah is very naked, but even with her guard hairs coming out, her new coat is starting to come through. It has that soft feel to it. With a bit of luck, she'll look great by Mid August!
