Poppy’s first walk

New years eve and it’s time for Poppies first walk.  We took her to Clowes wood (where we normally walk Molly) with Issy and Megan.  We thought it would be a good idea to put her on the extendable lead so she could have a bit of freedom – boy was that a mistake. Put [...]

It may look cute but …

My God this puppy stinks! You can be happily sitting there with Poppy on your lap when out of nowhere this rotten smell appears. Its her – she lets of these silent yet very violent pockets of nastyness.

How can something so small and so cute smell sooooo bad?
Weather: Scattered clouds,

Molly & Poppy

Molly is really starting to take to Poppy now allowing her to sleep in her bed MOST of the time. This evening they played together for ages (Ellie joined in)

The result? – two knackered dogs

Weather: few clouds,

Working with a puppy

Hmmm this is proving more difficult than I thought it would be. Whilst Poppy is asleep (which she is quiet a lot of the time) its fine but when she wakes up she wants to be with someone (other than grumpy Molly).  The problem is she is kept in the kitchen which is right next to my [...]

Poppies first night

Well it went fine, Molly didn’t eat Poppy although Poppy did wine a lot last night. Missing her Mum I guess. Ally was the first down in the morning and found Poppy sitting in the middle of what can only be described as carnage. In the night she had obviously decided it would be fun [...]

Poppy comes home

Well the day has finally arrived when we can go and pick up our new puppy, Poppy.
The day started by giving Molly (our springer spaniel) a good walk around the woods. This will hopefully calm her down a bit before Poppy turns up – yeah right.
Dropped Megan off at gym on the way, she’s doing [...]

Cat Pee Update

It’s been a couple of days now since we had the ‘professionals’ round to clean the cat pee from our living room.  For a while all we could smell was the cleaning fluid they used but now that has worn off.
Every now and again we were getting a whiff of cat pee, it was weird [...]

Damm Cats

As it happens we must have left a cat shut in the lounge on Sunday when we went to look at the puppies. When we got back it stank of cat pee. Ally found one patch on the rug and tried to clean it yesterday but it really didn’t make any difference whatsoever. She also [...]

Puppy name

Well many names were thrown in such as Daisy, Rosie, Lilly, Poppy, Milly to name but a few. I kept out of it and just grunted at the names I would absolutely on no account use (I have to call the dog too remember and quiet frankly i’m not standing in the woods shouting out ‘bow [...]

Puppy viewing

Before picking up the girls to go and see the puppies we shot round to Pets at home to buy puppy provisions – bowl, toys, food, collar, lead, treats and most importantly toilet training pads.
Picked up the girls (Issy and Ellie) from their dads and drove up to Tonbridge this afternoon to see the puppies. They [...]
