Running free

Another morning at the secure field, the weather continues to be warm, dry and sunny, so I’m still being accompanied by the girls! Wonder if it will continue when the rain inevitably arrives.

so I mused the other day that the girls would choose to stay at home rather than come to the secure field if it rained … I was wrong, they came along this morning even though it was raining when we set off. It did stop quite quickly so we didn’t get too wet! WeContinue reading “Fun at the field”

Play time

I booked an hour at my current favourite secure field for the Spots today, as there are so many people out early in the morning with the good weather, the Spots aren’t getting the leg stretch they need. I love this field, it is huge, totally secure, has agility equipment and a pond, everything theContinue reading “Play time”

Ainsdale beach

So we are going into lockdown, we took the opportunity to go to the beach before we can’t … the Spots love a run on the beach.

Puppies!

We took a long journey north today to visit a very special litter of puppies. Mac sired 11 puppies, 9 boys and 2 girls in early February, with the beautiful Mia, Sophtspot Golly Gosh at Appenine, and today we got to visit them and cuddle them. The girls had to come with me, try tellingContinue reading “Puppies!”

Crufts

We’ve been to Crufts! What an experience, for both Lottie and myself, oh and Ellie and Beth, they had to come too! When I first got Mac I never thought I’d be running round the green carpet with a spotty dog. Yesterday day Lottie went for a groom to get her all clean andContinue reading “Crufts”

The Dalmatian Joint Clubs Champ Show

So today we went to Stoneleigh KC for the Joint Dalmatian Clubs champ show. It was a bit of a family affair, both girls, hubby and both dogs came, first time in 2 years that Mac stepped into the ring, for a multitude of reasons. Lottie got Very Highly Commended in a big junior class,Continue reading “The Dalmatian Joint Clubs Champ Show”

Ringcraft

I usually go to ringcraft in my own with one of the Spots. Tonight Beth decided she would like to come. After watching for a while she decided to have a go with Lottie, and she did really well.

A walk in the deer park

We took the Spots and girls to a nearby National Trust deer park for a walk. The park is always busy and dogs need to be on leads, but every now and then it’s nice to go and see the deer. Both Spots love the smells and aren’t bothered by the deer,although they are partialContinue reading “A walk in the deer park”

Christmas in the Lakes

My parents live on the edge of the Lake District, and we spend Christmas there. It’s quiet, relaxing and very cosy, and we have the chance of snow!No snow this year, but no rain so that’s a plus. We took the Spots to Ullswater for a walk and a paddle. Lottie does love a paddle,Continue reading “Christmas in the Lakes”
