Joker, 3 months old

I cannot thank Nadja Rudenko enough for letting this super boy come to us at Kutani.  A match made in heaven.

I met the glorious Tyra when I was at the WDS in Helsinki and fell in love with her.  Asked to bring her to the UK, but Nadja just couldn't part with her.  But we are so very happy to welcome her son Joker.

Here is his sister Kailas, whom Nadja is keeping.

We wish her every success x

Dog Cabin II

The dog cabin is now on its new site, and how pretty does it look!

A funny story though, Jonas keeps looking at where it used to be to go to bed.  He stands looking at nothing.  Hopefully he will get used to the idea.

Spring

Feel that Spring is on its way

Dog Cabin

Well here we go again!

Preparing new sight for the dog cabin

What lucky dogs!

This is where it is now, needs to be on the other side of the garden.

Impossible task, ask Drew!

Michael

What an exciting start to 2016, 

and I aim to go on as I have started.

Hair coloured (and trimmed), holiday booked, new car bought

No dog shows as yet, but enjoying life as it is.

This year is going to be so much better than last year.

Something that bought a smile to my face, a card I received over Christmas from a Claire Leaman.  Her news was the most wonderful surprise and I would like to share it with you.

In 2000 Lydia and Kim (two sisters from the Community of Sisters of the Church bought a pup from me.  He was the litter brother of Reckless.  They called him Michael (after the saint). He was bought as an 'ice breaker' for young single mums in their care.

In 2004, Claire tells me that the sisters gave him to her to look after.  She was the gardener at the sisters' home at St Gabriels. She tells me that Michael was the most beautiful, intelligent, brave dog she had ever met.  He lived with her in the country enjoying a typical country life travelling in the basket of her bicycle, becoming a local celebrity.  He died July 2015.

I can honestly tell you that this card has bought me such joy, and a wonderful end to a traumatic 2015.

Thank you Claire for your kind thoughts, I will never forget.
