The snow has gone!!

Hi Artney hope you behave today

Hi Ailidh

the ice has gone from the pond

and the ground is soaking wet

there is plenty of icy cold water to drink here

and ditches to jump Ebony

how does she do that?

it's easy Niamh just jump over

Uncle Brian is throwing stones for her

Morgan has been away following the fox scent

some of the trees and branches fell down with the weight of all that snow

2 years old and looking good

She is a lovely gentle girl too...so well behaved I can take her anywhere

and with Pickle those two always stay by my side no matter what

Morgan is still a bit of a tomboy but great company and everybody loves her happy gentle nature

Trudy and Gabby wonderful girls but still full of nonsense...we wouldn't change them for the world

****************************************************************

Toby's final news.....He will never be forgotten...Toby died of an aneurysm

Mum took us all out together today for our walk...9 hounds...it was great fun

The pond was frozen

but we know how to break the ice

Morgan the ice breaker

look this one has the sun on it

That means...yes its melted here

Jack let us in too

A slow leisurely walk mum said

no chance we are wolfies on a mission

so what can we get up to today?

hunting?

there are no animals stupid enough to live around here

unless they live underground

or in the mud!!

no point in hunting then ...we can't find anything

we can play follow the Toby

no that is boring

We have to do something

even the terrible twins are bored

Let's see who can get the most mud in their coat

Pickle won't do that she is a good girl

so the pack just wander around sniffing and searching

paddling in muddy ditches

and just enjoying a wonderful wolfie walk

This is fun mum

25th Aug

Poor Pickle had a nasty cut on her leg after Midge (our Siamese) knocked down a picture

This is the piece of glass removed from down inside her back leg.

3" long, it cut into her muscle and opened a small artery spraying blood everywhere.

She is fine now and healing well but what an awful time she had...

we were in shock all day and it took that to clean up all the blood

this is just a little bit, it was on the beds, in the hall on carpets.....but we are so lucky to have our baby home safe.

Thanks to Vicky our vet and Cat who was a great help, she held onto the wound stopping the blood flow and kept Pickle calm on the 20 min mad rush to the vets.

28th July

Ben is with us on our walk today

now Toby I am in charge

you have all to be good

good dogs well done

I will look after Ben on the walk mum

Find me Ben

Ebony he is only a little boy come out and behave

follow me dogs

this is fun Gran

the wolfies were so careful not to knock into Ben

me I was their shelter from the rain!

Morgan did take great care making sure Ben was not run over

keep back Ben

where is he?

he is lost!

we cant see him anywhere

quick look for him he must be here somewhere

we found him, he was hiding in the trees

that was great fun
