Brrrrrrr!!

Well like everyone else we are under inches of snow like they said, for once they seem to have got it right(unfortunately!!)Midi as you can see does not mind in the least. He runs around with his nose in the stuff and his bum in the air! The girls on the other hand are not amused and are most stubborn about going out into it. Holly as usual protests about getting her feet wet. And we have been warned there is more to come!! I just want to hibernate till the spring...no, make that summer. lol

OUT WITH THE OLD AND IN WITH THE NEW!

Well 2008 is just about over and 2009 just around the corner. Best wishes to everyone, hope it is a guid yin. I'm not waiting up for the bells with my shortbread, whisky etc to welcome the 'first foot', I'm off to my bed as I am working tomorrow and have to get up at 4.45am!!! Give me a thought as you toddle off to your beds probably the same time I get out mine LOL. Here's to you all.

Merry Christmas

Merry christmas everyone. I hope you all have a nice day and santa is good to you. Try not to eat and drink too much [vbg]

It's a BOY!!!

I am an aunt again....sister-in-law gave birth to a bouncing baby boy on tuesday 28th October weighing in at 7lbs 6ozs. Mother, son and daddy doing fine. His name is Ruairidh and he is gorgeous!

Calm before the storm

It's been rather quiet on the show front recently for me. Midi has decided to change his coat completely and looks a right scruff-bag! He will be chilling out (excuse the pun!) meantime till new one arrives.
Our Papillon Club had a successful seminar recently. I helped out with that which took place in the middle of my nightshift week...which seemed a good idea at the time!! Staying awake for 26hours is no longer funny.
So glad to be having a break from the wet weather, dogs hate it as much as I do! But by-gum has it turned cold!! Least it's dry...for the moment. Snow is forecast. Holly hates getting her feet wet never mind anything else. It's a struggle at times to get her out the door, she loves her comfort.

Romar show trolley

Hi everyone, I have a Romar show trolley for sale. 4-berth with all terrain wheels which can lock in place. It has holder for umbrella, 3 handle heights and waterproof cover. It is about 18 months old and hardly been used. In excellent condition. E-mail me for more details.

Midi

Pipistrelle Midnight At Barallan (aka Midi). He is 11 months old now and this foto was taken at Border Union, his first championship show. He behaved remarkably well considering there was loads to sniff and look at! lol. He was placed vhc in the puppy dog class.
We trotted off to Blackpool the following week where it was very windy but stayed dry thankfully, again he was placed vhc.
One thing I did not miss while out the ring was the very early morning(or middle of night time) rises !! Oh hum, the joys of showing dogs.
