Hi - thanks for your comment :) That cute little puppy is all grown up now - she's the same bitch in the photos I just added to my collection! Just when I thought she'd turned into a perfect angel, I came home yesterday to find she'd munched her way through a CD!! Little monster. Now I'm just hoping she's not going to end up with any sharp bits stuck where they shouldn't be... Don't you just love em??

Cheers,
Melinda

Hi there Deborah.
Morning Glory, lovely name. Who was the stud dog? yes I know what you mean about not wanting to let them go, especially when you only have a couple left, when there are 8-10 of them you don't mind so much, because there are so many that its a pack and its difficult to cope with them all (they are all hooligans) I don't know if I could change, and get rid of the one that I was going to keep, especially if they were so close, but hey what the hell do I know I havent seen them...As for naming them, when I kept sheep the lambs were all called lamb chop or mint sauce, cruel I know but it is in the way you talk to them and what sought of life you give them. They don't know what you are saying to them. But they deserve for you to give them all the love etc, so do the puppies and loving them all is the only way. And that is hard, to give them to there new owners, again all you can do is to choose the best people for them, I always think that they are on lone to the new people, they will always be YOURSE......its hard. Speak soon Dee and the girls

Hi there Deborah
Yes I know what J.W. is as you probably know its Junior Warrant, this gives you a stud book number, which qualifies the dog for life for Crufts...you get one point for a win at an open show (there has to be 3 in the class) and you get 3 points for a championship show win (the 3 in the class thing applies there too) you need 25 points in all, sound easy doesn't it!!! not so, you also have to get 3 of those points at an open show, when Jas got hers you had to get 1/2 at open shows and 1/2 at championship shows with the extra made up from one or the other. You have to be very lucky to get your J.W. these days. I hope that isn't to garbled.
speak soon Dee and the girls

hi want my few days. k has had diahorea but she gorges on so much anything. cory hadnt been brilliant for weeks and as hes not living with me it means thats ok but not.i got him some tree bark as weve had colitis run in our family so thats helping him. now back to these willow ok erin ok. shadow also having a problem not eating but will eat grass not other problem not eating food.anyhow last night he ate his tea at midnight. hes still ok thankfully. this morning collect willow and keely and what a mess keely still not right. omg what a mess again the bed the floor ugh. poor willow a sight for sore eyes puppies mess and sister mess to look at. never mind i clean it up as per usual.so strickly no food for keely today.managed to have pups out yesterday afternoon and the couple who are having one came over as usual to see them again been several times before to take more pics that passed the time away. oh boy ill be glad when theyre gone ill miss them but its hard to treat if you cant segregate them very well.could do with a spot just for keely to get her right. As for cory he has good days and bad ones hes loose then hes not. he saw the vet and was given some kalin paste and some tablets but not helped to much the tree bark as done more. ill solder on anyway.

yes they trample in it and sit in it its yuk. il do that get some. ive just given her a dia tablet and some plain yogurt bio.so ill keep my hopes up she doesnt have another bout. she was chewing a chew when i got back c had given her it to her like he does but he isnt aware of her being offside.the weather as gone hot here and the people who had keelys brother have just paid a visit to see them not seen then for years so it was nice to see them. oscar was left at home.so we had quite a chat.

Hi there Deborah,
Well as it states it is a junior Warrant, so when your dog reaches 18 months then that's it even if you only have 1 or 2 points to go. My Jasmin got hers on the last few hours of her being 18 months on the last day, she gained her last point.....Still if they are any good they will win their way out of each class without it. Good luck if you are thinking of going for it, probably best to try her out at some open shows first and hope that there is at least 3 in the class, oh by the way even if there isn't 3 in the class, you can still get one point if you get B.O.B. and that has been going on a lot lately, can't say that I agree with puppies getting B.O.B. but hey I only judge on occasions.....Dee and the girls, I am not going to Leeds, the judge doesn't like my dogs.....so will save my money but will be going to Richmond, Frank Cane (?) he hasn't an axe to grind he will do what he wants to. Maybe see you there, or N.E.E.I.S.C will be there too

Hi there Deborah,
I am going down to Richmond with Dave Laidlaw and his granddaughter Chloe, she will be handeling my Jas in the junior handling and their new boy will be having his first show, he is a cutey... Ollie... I think that Saffy will be in season soon, so will have to get the dog sussed out, don't know quite what to do about that as we are going to Ireland for the Circuit, just have to keep her in the car...Will probably see you at NEEISC I know that the judge likes my old girl lets just hope she isn't too old, we got a 'very highly CONDEMED' today at an open show two Irish Show Champions and one of them is also a UK sh ch he got 2nd and Jas got 4th dreadful, still never mind they owe us nothing. I always take the best dog and bring the best dogs home, if the judge cant see that well just their problem. Dee and the girls
