Yesterday's walks were very easy and very pleasant. Though I did have to go three times and then take Jezi around the field. Having a bitch from each pack in season is quite hard work. Thank god we got the kennels sorted for the builders, they are a great help to us now. (now I have an image of the builders locked in the kennels .. lol... well I know what I was trying to say!) Anyway on the walk I did stumble on rough ground and felt a muscle twinge in my lower back, unfortunately in the same place as I'd had a lot of bother with over Xmas. I thought very little of it and continued on my walk. By the evening it was starting to bother me, and now I'm really struggling. I think what made it worse was that Steve woke me up not long after we had gone to bed to say Nico was whingeing. Woken from a deep sleep I jumped up and then froze with the pain ...
Finlay, Nico and Jezi - always together |
Loki and Mikey |
Loki is in love with Sammi, but being good and eating his food. Mikey on the other hand is doing what he always does when we have a bitch in season and throwing his bowl of food. He really annoys me, if you don't want it, just leave it, Oh no, the food, bowl and all get's thrown in whatever direction takes his fancy! Asha is usually quite pleased to help clear the mess, but Ziva is not interested in his sexual advances and is telling him plainly and clearly to bog off! Anyway back to Loki, I have had to make a vet appointment for him this afternoon. On Saturday I collected ear cleaner for him, his ears where mucky, but not red, sore or really bothering him. After putting the stuff in over the weekend his ears a red and obviously sore as he's shaking his head ... poor little legs hasn't been to the vets since he had his jabs.

So now the builders are here again, well I guess these guys are checking on the work done outside. 9 dogs are barking, 4 cats have left home and Jamie and Tia are sleeping through it all... "Hell I am in hell, hell burns dreams hell I am in hell ......." from the stage show Mutiny which I had the pleasure of seeing with David Essex and Frank Finlay in 1985/6!
