Tansy update

Grania & I thrilled to see and hear news of Murphy. He looks absolutely fantastic - he was always the best looking of all the pups we thought and so it has turned out although they were all lovely of course!! Tansy is in cracking form and responding well in class when she's not distracted. We feel that she will soon be larger than her mother Tallulah and with a thicker coat. She gets that from Dad, Strider. They make a great looking couple and certainly turn heads when we take them to the local pub. Tansy is very playful and, like most Munsterlanders requires a great deal of attention. She is very demanding and gets jealous when we try and give as much attention to Lula. So far Lula has been extremely tolerant and patient with her. Whilst we all got rather bored with the snow, they absolutely loved it and it was a joy to see them ploughing their way through it. We've had one medical drama when Tansy lurched out of a ditch and became very lame in her back leg. Could not walk on it for several days but the vet, after expensive tests and x-rays, couldn't find what the problem was. Luckily it disappeared on its own accord and she has made a complete recovery. Other than that she has developed very well considering how small she was compared to the rest of the litter. It would be interesting to know if she has caught up with her siblings. Ali you always said she would and I am still smarting from your rebuke when I had the temerity to call her the "runt" of the litter!!! By the way Tallulah is four years old today.
