If you have a dog – do you ever let him choose the walk route?
I read online a long time ago about a woman who said as a treat she decided to let her dog choose what route they took for their walk. I was intrigued so decided to try it. I’ll be totally honest, it was partly to see what he would do and also partly because I…

A Weekend of Garden Work
How can I work in the garden all weekend and still not be done? I ask myself that question as I sit, with tired arms and bits of dirt still in my eyes. I mean, I tidied the front as much as I could by cutting the grass, going round the edges a bit and…

Is This The Cutest Lurcher Ever?
Our lurcher Scooby likes to chat – a lot. This evening he looked like he was up to something so I took the opportunity to get a short recording of him and what it is like when we chat. Obviously we think he is the cutest dog there ever was but we might be a…

Proof Dogs Do Dream in their Sleep!
Our lovely dog Scooby was sleeping soundly in the living room the other night, when it became apparent he was having a dream! Sometimes he makes a lot of ‘wuff’ noises but this one was silent so I wanted to share it with you:

Time At The Dog Park
We are very lucky to have a great facility for dogs near us which we paid a visit to recently with our lurcher Scooby. We don’t let Scooby off-lead when out for his usual walks for many reasons: All this might make him sound like a nightmare but he is far from it. I’ve never…
