Groomed and doomed!

Dylan might be a girl, but let's face it she's not a girlie girl. I realised this moment I met her and saw with her  brothers. Yes Dyls was the biggest - in fact I called her Chubster - and was jumping over her brothers, pushing them out of the way to get fed first, … Continue reading Groomed and doomed! →

A wonderful Winter’s Sunday — moisfrenchadventure

I have a few posts for you all this week – behind because I didn’t post last week and you will understand why soon. But I feel compelled to write this one first. The ‘Beast from the East’ is upon us, and over the past five days the temperatures have been in the minus and […] … Continue reading A wonderful Winter’s Sunday — moisfrenchadventure →

Snow, a BIG surprise and Shiraz! Oh and we find a leading man!

Tonight something surprising happened at puppy class. Nope put away the champagne in anticipation that Dylan, for once, behaved. Those corks can stay corked! We did think class could be cancelled as there’s been snow - and in the soft southern part of the UK - that usually puts a stop to everything. But puppy … Continue reading Snow, a BIG surprise and Shiraz! Oh and we find a leading man! →

Time for a real drink!

Good news - puppy class ended 25 minutes early tonight. Bad news, that’s 25 minutes extra gin time and trust me tonight it’s time to go for the big guns and get the Heston out! Dylan was beyond excited going into puppy class - after all she’s had a week to work out how to … Continue reading Time for a real drink! →

What happens in the park…

It was cold, wet, windy and grey, but that doesn't stop a sturdy little Welshie like Dylan and a sturdy Essex girl like me going for a walk. So I thought 'let's go to the country park with the cafe and the lake, we'll have a lovely walk round the woods and stop for a … Continue reading What happens in the park… →

Seemed like a good plan!

This week I came up with a cunning plan in readiness for tonight's puppy class. I took Dylan for a walk later than usual, and went confidently to class with a chilled out Welshie trotting sedately beside me. Yay, Dylan's excess energy all burnt off, this will be a good night! Yep took all of … Continue reading Seemed like a good plan! →

A Welshie, a Collie, a Cockerpoo and a large gin!

Things we learnt at puppy class tonight.... never underestimate a Welshie! Tonight a show judge was at puppy class with her 6month old collie who was the most trained and well behaved puppy I think I have ever seen! So we line up for the first exercise - sit stay - Dylan and I end … Continue reading A Welshie, a Collie, a Cockerpoo and a large gin! →

Toy week at puppy class – it was never going to end well!

It was toy week at Dylan's puppy class. A night that was never going to end well! So what to say about toy week at Dylan’s puppy class! Dotty the cavapoo brought along her toy Foxy. Sadly Foxy will squeak no more!  In fairness Dylan was quite happy for the others to play with her … Continue reading Toy week at puppy class – it was never going to end well! →
