Good weekend

Rhum and Wynter went to Pearl Anniversary Show on Saturday and enjoyed a tank round meeting and greeting people.
Met Bali's new owners who adopted him through Rescue and me they went home delighted with winning Handsome Dog and 2sd in the Rescue class
Saw Jenny and Pete plus their dogs Cash and Tarot.

Sunday was the second day of the Anniversary show I didn't go but Bali and his new owners did, they came away with Best Rescue of the Year under a different judge than Saturday.

Sage and I ventured out to our FIRST show in 5 months, she was happy to be out and meeting up with other dogs, stood well in her classes and took 2 seconds behind the Reserve Besrt of Breed
So was very pleased with her

Whatever anybody did with their munster or Gordon at the weekend hope they enjoyed themselves

Rhum and her dad

Rhum laid down looking at a bird today in the shade this morning

Then deciding to flirt with her dad to get him to play

After playing mum making me do a Sit and Stay....... she says I will need to learn this when I get a new owner, but soon give up as I find concentrating for long a little boring, well I am only little, but enjoy the treats and praise that go with the boring stuff

Sage

Daddy dog, Balian, below one of his daughters

This is Sage, sat in the dog run, today, the look says it all, I was trying to get a photo of her with her dad but she refused to sit with him, he was, as usual, laid down elsewhere saying "so what" as the photo above Sage clearly shows.......................

Whispa

Whispa looking to see where her dad had gone too this morning
and finding him and giving him big girlie kisses, she is such a loving girl with dogs and humans

Luna

This is Luna, part of the Ecclestone household and her owner is looking forward to taking her along to watch on a couple of half days at the end of the shooting season, she is coming along nicely, her brothers (all 4) are doing fine they will be featured later on as I sort the photos out, its been lovely to see Flikka and Lagga's litter grow up, Balian who lives here has been busy watching Yeats chase the snow flurries here today, and now follows him doing it, didn't take long for him to follow his buddies lead.................................... he is a follower not a leader just what I wanted and Hannah requested as his handler in the show ring

latest photos from Luna

This is Luna, sat, I presume practicing her sit stay, and looking very happy, thanks again keep them coming

Balian and his pot leg

Balian with is pot on, not bothered it at all and gets around really well, he goes for his first check up on Monday, fingers crossed

Balian - second weeks training

Balian sat in kitchen with a pile of toys waiting for action!!!!

Braving the water a little bit by paddling

Running up and down by the side of the lake wondering if he dare go in

Out in the woods enjoying the smells

With my pal investigating whatever has been here before us

Having a well deserved drink after playing with a toy

Thanks again to Hannah and Sue for the hard work this week, he's been to ringcraft and is having a good time, he comes home next weekend for a few weeks. Miss him but know he's in safe hands

Kobi - Ichbin L litter

Kobi sat looking lovely and handsome, thanks to Ian for sending the photo, very artistic...

Balian - first weeks training

Balian looking for trouble, by wondering if he can get away with having an investigation of a muddy puddle............ He is away training and it's me that is suffering not him by the look of these photos


Balian doing a recall while out on a walk, lucky him to have a walk like this on the doorstep

Balian out on a walk looking to see what is in the hedgerow, a typical munster trait.

Practising his sit stay in the garden with his pals Bryn and Ivy, he sat before he left here but didn't stay

Laid in the kitchen with Ivy, ever hopeful of some food

Sitting in the garden wondering what is going happen next

Looking into things soon after he arrived

Thanks to Sue and Hannah for taking Balian for some training as I cannot put the work in due to my ankle and knee. Hannah will be taking him into the show ring for me and feel only fair to let her get to know him. He is down with them for about 5 weeks then home then back again as he grows up so he gets the "extra" all pups need and I cannot give just now.

Lets see what next weeks photos tell us he has been up to

Balian relaxing this week

Luna and her new family

Above Luna and her new family, she has really settled in according to Phillip. She looks really cute. Thanks Phillip for the photos keep them coming........
