Fwd: Cria Born 10.30. Walking / staggering around by midday

> The cria was born Monday 1st August at 10.30 am on a mad crazy, wet murky manic Monday. The weather soon improved so I didn't need to pop a cria (dog) coat on her. Very proud of our beautiful brown female cria. Well done Alice.

The aunties gather around to see the new arrival.

Monte Snuggling!

We had our first DHK session today. We were given lots of handouts and some homework to do. One part is to teach our dogs to snuggle. I know Monte will be fab at this!

Archie and Freddy the beardies come to see our new pad.

Several years ago I met a lady in Porlock at a labradoodle show. She was down from Derby on holiday just watching the dog show with her Beardie. I got chatting and we have stayed friends since. Now when ever Jill is down in Devon we meet up for a beardie bounce.

Hay Making

The dogs helped me get in some hay off one of our paddocks. I think Poppy got more on her than the tarpaulin! We had good fun until rain stopped play.

The TDs are growing fast

Went for a quick puppy cuddle at Gail's. Great to see how advanced the pups are and also the differences between Hobbits and Waders pups. Hobbits pups have such wavey coats already, whereas Waders pups are much straighter and one (Navigator) just looks like a lab. They are all gorgeous.
