Wee Pearly is 5 years old today! I can't believe how quickly the time has gone by. She was just a baby of 2 years old when we first met her at the kennels. She's still as funny and loving as ever, and of course as gorgeous - though she's starting to show a wee bit of grey on her muzzle. We just can't imagine ever b...

My little Dunmara Admiral is 6 today, he will be spoilt rotten with roast chicken on the menu! Tiger is getting treats every day at the moment, I am ignoring all your good advice and feeding Tiger whatever he fancies! (which Chad is enjoying too!) but with good reason as you all know. I am trying...

4 years ago we went to a GAL Awareness Day at Bothwell. I had my eye on a huge, pony sized boy called Zyggy (what happened to him?!!), but Chas wasn't keen. Actually, Chas didn't want a dog, full stop! I actually had a lead in my bag, in readiness! How's that for wishful thinking!!

Can you believe it ?? One year ago (well technically its on Wednesday 15th June) I brought home a wee nervous bundle of nerves who was scared of her own shadow, she wet herself if there was any loud noises or sudden movements. She even wet herself one day when I took out a kitchen knife to cut open some packa...

Goodness me, doesn't time fly when you're having fun? Two years ago today, our little princess Pearly came home with us. We met her over at the kennels in Fife and it was love at first sight.
