Maggie and Elsa tend to do most of theirs on a walk but still leaves some to pick up. We had one of those bins once too Karen and found it utterly useless even with one dog. We bury ours in the field - bit disgusting when it rains though and my mother once fell into it - long story but she wasn't very happy to say the least so now we keep a lid on it. The sand pit sounds a great idea, it would be lovely to keep it all in one place and being on sand would make it easy to pick up. I'm trying to do the opposite with Simba at the moment so he stops using his litter tray and goes out side )lol

I can see Illy looks brown - she is a lovely colour and very pretty. Does look blacker in the second two pictures but her head still looks brown.

Bree looks like she is enjoying having her sisters to stay - they are growing fast. I love the picture of Chumleigh curled up with the cat - so sweet.
