I'm loving the "pupdates" - what lucky dogs to have such a sensible mummy.

| Thank you Caryn, I have renamed this Pupdates. Have to say I was worried that I was being selfish bringing a pup into my cats and old boys life but they have proved me wrong. Only tonight she got tired of playing before Dex did. |

Nancy is just gorgeous, hope she is eating well soon. What lovely dogs all settled together.
Good news today the publicity around Husky stolen in Bradford 3 December has paid off he is home. The lad never gave up working so hard to get him back. |

OMG... sooo cute, I think Dolly is one of the family! Good boy Dexter and black puddy tat!
Isnt it lovely when your animals accept a new addition... my girls are brilliant as there are always dogs coming and going here but I love it when the pup is allowed into the group cuddles and dives into the playing without a care it makes me remember what good girls they are! |

What a fabulous start your dogs give to the pups and I share your pleasure in their enjoyment of each other. Over the years my heart and home has taken in rescued adults, pups, kittens and all have mucked in and got on. Dex has lived with various aged cats all his life but the relationship he has with the kittens I got 3 yrs ago is very close and precious so for them to have extended that priviledge to Dolly is wonderful for for us all.
She really is the right pup at the right time. |

| Just a little update it's week 4 of Dolly and my Life Skills classes and we are so enjoying it. Have to say it's me that is being trained how to get it right for her. Even the old lad is doing better with his recall after 14 yrs of terrier delinquency on a farm with hundreds of rabbits lol. I take no credit, she is a very clever girl with a lovely calm nature so any mistakes are mine. |

Dolly is now 6mths and the housetraining and worry of getting all things right is all a faded memory. My old boy has no symptoms of his managed CKD, plays so much more and eats well. I am so enjoying her and doing lots of training cos she loves to learn. It's easy as every walk down the land to get Ari is an opportunity to practice recall, walk by me and down etc.
The old lad gets a treat every time for doing nothing lol

| lol Ari...bless her and you..it is amazing how quickly they become part of the family..Nancy gets lots of treats, even for doing a wee which my other girls are disgusted by but she needs to have rock solid toilet training and to go on demand.. I know that I have reached that point now that she goes outside 'fakes' having a wee and runs back for a treat! So we are well into consolidation with this now and just need to build on success with lots of clean walks! |

Never thought; when Nancy is out in the future she will be working so no time for business. Mine are pretty reliable time wise but it's no fun down the field in high wind with a poo bag.
One mistake I made was to ever let her walk on my right side, why did I not realise horse right = dog left. We are on with all good things come from left pocket lol |

| Bit of a learning curve today for Dolly. It's the first time since I got her that I have cheered and screamed as Frankie and Golden Horn won the Derby. Uncle Dex is used to my sporting exuberance over the years, she was a tad confused but soon got into the spirit. |

| Today we went to local Riding for Disabled fun dog show so win win for us. Support a great charity and socialise pup with lovely dogs and like minded very friendly people. Did the puppy class just to test Dolly's focus on me in an exiting new environment. She was a star and did all I asked; wish I said to judge before this is training for us and she may do well but I am happy last as it's not about winning. She was best pup and all credit to her |
