Oh this year we’re off to sunny Spain!

On a rainy dull and very windy Saturday, Dylan and I set sail for Spain. Twenty nine hours on a ferry from Portsmouth to Santander - what could possibly go wrong? We turned up at the ferry port. Dylan, as usual, asleep the minute she gets in a car. The wind was gathering and the … Continue reading Oh this year we’re off to sunny Spain!

Ho ho no! It’s the puppy class Christmas party!

So after missing the last two weeks puppy class as I was full of cold one week and worked late the other, Dylan and I were back for the puppy social event of the year- the puppy Christmas party. Now in our absence, turns out that the Cavapoos and original members of Dylan's girlband, Molly … Continue reading Ho ho no! It’s the puppy class Christmas party!

Dylan has a date!

So after last week when there was no puppy class - because the chosen puppies which didn't include Dyls, were taking their Bronze Good Citizen award, we were back this week. And a bit late in posting as we've had all sorts of things going on this week with decorators and carpet fitters! Aslan the … Continue reading Dylan has a date!

Dylan gets dropped!

Back at puppy class after a weeks break and Dylan was raring to go. Watch out world! After all it's only ten days until the Bronze Good Citizen test. Or is it? Boo was missing tonight - seems she's has started her second season and will miss the test. But Mollie the Cavapoo was back … Continue reading Dylan gets dropped!

It was all going so well…

Last week Dylan was named puppy of the night- it seemed that nine weeks of tantrums and trials were finally a thing of the past. We were on our way to glory and moving up to the next stage of puppy class to join Dylan's other friends, Eddie the cockerpoo and Martha the miniature Schnauzer, … Continue reading It was all going so well…

And the award goes to….

Something very strange happened this week at puppy class. Dylan as usual couldn’t wait to get there and did a “poor me I am going to play puppy victim” crying in the the car  as we had arrived too early and had to wait it out. Honestly listening to her, anyone would think I put … Continue reading And the award goes to….

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!

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…
