Karen, I used to have all the proper agility equipment, all to regulation height etc; Andrew made most of it and we bought some. Unfortunately when we left Devon we filled two massive lorries, and there wasn't room so I gave it away, we still have a few pieces which we have made over the years and will try and get a full set made and done for Mudlarks, you can of course make an obstacle course, as a child I acquired some road cones which we would put a bamboo cane on and then the dogs would jump, my dog then was Ben, a Yorkie x Jack Russell mated to a Springer x Collie, a real mix but such a lovely chappie. He would do all sorts, lets be honest these Munsters don't mind what they do so long as they do it with us!
As for Mazy moulting, isn't she due in season in the next month or so, that's probably why she is now moulting, Tetra and Darcy are very much out of coat, just in time for the shows but hey they are juniors and most juniors are gangly and don't have heavy coats until they are out of junior, it's an age thing.
I wouldn't give the oil capsules to the puppies just yet another few weeks and they should be fine around 12 weeks old, just too much oil and they will be loose. The puppies which are going to me more roan will always look dull in coat until they have their proper colouring, I know Bree does, where she is solid black on one side she is very glossy but on the other side she looks dull. In actual fact her coat is in great condition but still fluffy with baby coat.
By the way not sure if you all know Minden is Summer's litter sister, Summer seems to have quite a fan club so I though you would like to know who Minden is!.
Darcy's lady friend is in season now so he is expecting a visit next week!!! He feels very grown up now he is going to be Daddy to two litters!!!
