catch up

Firstly Cat - lovely pictures of Jumble. You are lucky to have so many animals to introduce her to. We normally have sheep at the farm down the road but not there at the moment. When they get back I will take her down there. I love the picture of her saying hello to the horse - When I had Maggie as a puppy we had a horse and she used to say hello too, but she has sadly passed since.

Sharon - Lovely picture of Brode and think the first action shot is great even if your camera is slow.

Karen, Mazy looks like she enjoyed the beach. I'd love to have a beach near us but think we live just about the furthest part in the country from any beach! Glad the camping trip went well

Lins, you must be knackered after a day like that - don't know how you do it. I was telling Frank what Bailey and the others got up to - little monkeys!

Ali, Tetra and Darcy look like having lots of fun - love the first picture of Tetra running with the clump of grass in her mouth!

Tessa, glad your day with Christine and Raymond was successful.

Elspeth you are probably right - but there are a lot of things in this book that are quite contradictory to what I've been told before. One thing I found quite shocking was the suggestion of taking the young dog to see sheep with a stick of cane in your welly. When the dog pulls towards the sheep he suggested whacking it across the fleshy part of it's hind quarters and then hiding the offending weapon to make the puppy think it was something to do with chasing the sheep that hurt it. Not sure I agree with that! Love the video.
