Lexus!



Lexus, still up to his old tricks.

Dave and I were enjoying a quiet moment first thing this morning,our dogs had been down the garden and had breakfast, when Dave scolded Lexus. Standing at Dave's feet he was helping himself to some cardboard from the recycling box which had some food stuck on it!. Having been thwarted he ambled off, then I heard something from the living room, I walked in and there was Lexus standing on top of the clutter on the coffee table, ears pricked, head on one side looking at me! The object of his desire was an empty Coca cola bottle on the shelf, put there by my daughter so it was "Out of reach."

His skill at taking lids off Coca Cola bottles is second to none.

Sandy.

Still doing well, playing with her ball whilst  I pick up droppings, remaining close also on walks.

Angel.

Angel pushed into the rapeseed on our walk and has now got green marks, Is there a special name for a green and white Stafford?

We only saw one dogon our walk, coming towards us along the road, Angel was on a longish lead, I increased my pace and left the lead slack despite her starting to tense. The dog drew nearer, I kept up the pace, we turned off to the right, the dog had disappeared from her view, she relaxed. It couldn't have been better timing but it shows how we can make things worse when we tense too.

We have updated our Links page.

Do have a look at the Oldies Website.  http://www.oldies.org.uk/  They cover  "oldies," from all rescues and often have our dogs on there. We have just put Sapphire on as a "younger" oldie and Valerie's dear Percy is in "In loving Memory."

It is such a well run site they are always efficient and friendly and passionate about every dog they display, they should win a prize.



Val and Percy



It is always good to hear from any of you who have adopted a dog from us. We love to hear how things are going and pictures are a bonus. Remember if you have adopted from us in the last two years you can write a review on us for Rescue Review (also a link )
