BushMoot: Come along to the amazing Summer Moot 31st July - 5th August (extended Moot : 27th July - 8th August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
Here's the two I have now (have had for the past 7 years):
Sadie Ann with my oldest grandson, James, about two years ago:
And here's one of my Boxer mix, Dinah:
Dinah's the world's perfecr nanny. James' baby brother, two year old Carson, opens her mouth to inspect her teeth, pulls her ears, uses her as a step stool to climb onto the couch, and generally abuses her patience. None-the-less, she dutifully follows him around making sure he's safe and happy. I suppose it helps that he always tries to share his meals and snacks with her. LOL.
I have two staffies, Mabel and Sadie. Both getting on abit and both rescue dogs. Mabel is the one I take out, but she doesn't like cold, rain or the dark! ! lol
I have 2 cats who are excellent mousers, ratters & rabbiters (they don't do birds), they also come for walks round the farm with me on occasion. When they will allow me, I can sometimes share the rabbits ... I'm really not into mouse or rat, I spose you could call me a fussy eater !!!
I occasionally have the chance to go out with Magpiewolf's 2 whippets (very cat-like dogs!) who are also good hunters and great fun. Our first pair of cats came everywhere with us, like walking on Exmoor, but my current girls do not believe in car-travel
My dog's not much of an outdoor dog, but he's a great companion. Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are said to be one of the most friendly breeds, and he definitely fits that description. He's been camping a few times with me and climbed up a few hills. Quite impressive for such a small dog. He turned one only a couple of months ago.
Bumpy: a six year old mini Schnauzer. Thick as two short planks, cheeky, stubborn, great temperament, greedy, thinks she's a big dog but with a low down bum... And falls in rivers a lot (she just seems to topple in from the bank - never from the canoe!). And also scared of sheep!
She still hasn't got the hang of standing up on command - and I'm beginning to think she never will. Knows mealtimes though!
