Rain

Zavi was over the moon with the rain last night, I doubt he's seen many wet days in his 9 weeks of life, but there's no doubt there's a lot ahead of him. 

Out With My Lovelies

A lovely short walk in Tremadog with Orin and Siska this morning. 

Zavi 9 Week Weight

A 9-week weigh-in and he's 9 kg – well done little man. 

 

Orin was 7 kg, I have Ross' records down as 6.7 kg at 9 weeks, and Loki was a tad heavier at 7.3 kg. 

Zavi's Siblings - Edit To Add Reacher

        

Kate (Pink) and Lila (Purple)

Bryn (Green) 

All the pups are still looking chunky and great, and all have dark eyes so far. I still think Zavi's eyes are closer together than his siblings' and than any pup I've really noticed before to be honest. It's more noticeable in a photo than when you actually see him. It will be interesting to see how his head develops. 

Hopefully I'll get a photo of Reacher and add it to this post soon.

My lovelies are back together.

Visiting Cofi Land

                      

Love these photos taken at Ian's today.

 Zavi was happy and had a good look around but did get tired quickly and fell asleep.  

First group photo, luck not judgment!

My Kind Of Weather

A lovely morning walk in the ideal temperature for me and the dogs. This is currently my favourite walk, but tomorrow I will go somewhere else! I may try Orin and Siska together again tomorrow. A walk would be the ideal way to go about it. I've missed my big man as he's so much time in the run over the last week or so – he'll love me more than her again now, haha. 

Seasonal Siska

I really have no idea what's going on with this girl. I'd had to separate her and Orin since about last Friday, but he wasn't too wound up. Sunday into Monday it got pretty "hot" here, and on Tuesday he left his breakfast, but by yesterday it was a lot quieter, and today he seems quite disinterested. Zeus hasn't left a single meal and has not got himself into a state at all, though he has been trying to push through into the same room as her. Well, I guess next time I'll have to be really on the ball as it seems she has a very small window of opportunity for fertilisation. If I hope for a baby Kez there will be no doubt there will be a lots of running to the vets!

Siska is doing well with Zavi, though a little too rough at times, as bitches are. I want to keep him mixing with all the girls, but I think I'll leave the entire males for a while - it's Sammi's turn next!

Sammi Had A Fall

Beti, Ross, Meerah

Sammi and Zeus

A lovely couple of walks on home ground today. I did set off up the mountain, but there were sheep scattered everywhere, so it was safer to walk towards Llyn Ffynhonnau. I must get down there soon, maybe not now in case there is algae in the lake, maybe in the Autumn! 

Sammi was a little stiff today, but I did know why. Yesterday she took a tumble as she misjudged her footing on the way down the boncan. I didn't see it; I just heard her sigh and squeak, and as I turned round I saw her getting up. I called her, and she ran towards me for a reassuring hug. She seemed fine yesterday and still had no difficulty getting into the van today but I did think she wasn't her usual self. I've no idea why she misjudged yesterday, but I'm more tempted to think that it was running too quickly downhill with possibly/probably some vision changes.

Zavi's Day.

Visiting Frank and Linda wasn't easy, as the steps into the caravan are quite steep for little legs. Anyway, a brainwave idea worked, and we used the ramp that Carrie lent us for Loki. After a couple of attempts and some treats Mr Brainbox had it sorted. 

He really doesn't like the heat, but if you throw the water on the floor then fall asleep on the wet towel used to mop up the water, well you soon cool down! 

This morning I took him with me to take the recycling down the track, just a moment's hesitation, and he soon got used to the rattling and the wheels. Let's hope he never sees Beti's treatment of the recycling trolly, no Beti you are not funny! (Ok she is a little!!) 

I had to laugh as Steve was filling up his bucket with dead and dying flowers and Zavi kept taking stuff out, we don't need another gardener like Ross!!!
