It certainly has gone to the dogs, time to get it ruff-ly back on track with tales about tails and other shaggy dog stories.

Smoggy my friend as most of us have got dogs there should be a story on Doggy Tails post  either at Home or on the Norfolk Broads

That’s a good idea!

I had been hoping to post a few more photos and a video from yesterday. Sons Harry and Alec took the dogs out, but Harry went off to work today without sharing them with me.

[YnysMon]

Sorry, I should have uploaded these last month!

Pozzick is all set for our next trip on Moonlight Shadow. Son Harry bought him a buoyancy aid.

We spent the last few days in Anglesey, checking up on how Graham's dad is doing. We spent most of the weekend cleaning his house. Unfortunately, Age Cymru (Welsh version of Age Concern) hadn't told us his cleaner had resigned a few months back.

Anyway, between our cleaning efforts, we did manage to take the dogs to the beach for exercise. We chose Porthdafarch beach, which was my dad's favourite.

Some photos from Saturday.

One thing I should have mentioned with the videos of the dogs running with son Alec. For the first few weeks, Pozzick really couldn't keep up with Seren. Being undernourished had really taken a toll on him.  His back legs seemed quite weak.

Anyway, the last week or so he has been gaining in energy and fitness. He can now catch Seren up, but even so, she's more nippy than he is and can change direction more quickly.

Hi Helen at least Pozzic is gaining his strength on his back legs as to running with Serene is a leading dog for Pozzic to keep him active and looking good as each time we see Pozzic in these photos

[YnysMon]

Yes, he’s certainly building up his stamina. It’s really lovely seeing the two of them have so much fun chasing each other when out on walks. Seren didn’t know what fun she was missing out on when she was an ‘only dog’.

What a smile he has in those photos Helen. And I’m so pleased that Seren is enjoying herself with him so much too. 

[kpnut]

Those are two lucky dogs. The videos show two extremely well socialised dogs just doing fun things. 

[YnysMon]

Another thing we’ve noticed. Until recently Pozzick’s nose was very dry. It’s become a lot more moist recently. Like a dog’s nose is supposed to be. We think it’s to do with having been undernourished for quite some time. 

[Hylander]

If only Pozzick could talk and let you know exactly why he ended up on the edge of the river like he did.     They say that things happen for a reason and you passing at that time and taking Pozzick home with you was meant to be.

[Andrewcook]

Highlander all I can say is thank God Helen and Graham arrived in the nick of time now name Pozzick to theses Dog loving people as we still got in this world thank God.

[YnysMon]

It’s the doggy Christmas party soon, (for agility classes) with Pozzick’s being invited too. Doggy’s are encouraged to ‘dress-up’ for the event, so Graham has come up with a cunning plan…a Little Red Riding Hood theme. I haven’t seen anything of Seren’s costume yet, but the grandma outfit for Pozzick seems to be taking shape.

If it all works out, there will be photos!

I would certainly hope so!

Graham spent this morning wandering around Bletchley (now part of Milton Keynes), mainly because the car had an appointment with a guy that was fixing a tow bar. As I have mentioned previously, there’s no way we’ll fit both doggies and all our stuff into the car and roof box, so we need a trailer. 

Bletchley has one of those high streets that now has a lot of charity shops, so a good place for Graham to hunt for a suitable ‘granny look’ garment for Pozzick’s Christmas party outfit (as described above). It also has a good, reasonably priced fabric shop too, a source for red fabric. I am yet to find out what Graham plans to make with that…maybe a Red Riding Hood cape for Seren?

When I worked in Bletchley railway station in the mid 1980’s it had a really good high street. A handy Co-op department store and a good range of shops. There was a brilliant bakery that I found far too tempting during work breaks when on a double shift. Shame that a lot of our smaller towns have suffered. 

[Andrewcook]

This will be very interesting to see how this turns out for Pozzic & Serene as we will be entering the the Pantomime season very soon. As to having a Small trallier Tow Bar fitted to carry all you basic essentials as that Pozzic & Serene can Travel at the Back seat of the car in comfort.but don't include the kitchen sink in the Trailer..

[kpnut]

That sounds like fun, Helen. The place I sometimes go gundog training has a Christmas party with all sorts of fun activities and competitions for the dogs. No dressing up though I’m relieved to say!

I also went one year when the class fell on Remembrance Sunday. I couldn’t believe that we could all stand in a line, about 12 of us, for 2 minutes with all dogs a couple of yards in front of us, facing us and manage 2 minutes with no movement at all. It was very poignant. 

I look forward to the photos.

What big teeth you have grandma...

[Andrewcook]

That is a great picture on Pozzic now let's see Serene next 

[YnysMon]

Pozzick’s outfit is from a charity shop, Seren’s one needs sewing up. So far Graham has bought some red fabric and created a paper template for the ‘hood’.

I can't see grandma's teeth but grandma's other bits is a worrying sight, I'm pretty sure my grandma didn't have one of those...
