Sorry to hear that , Eve. Life can be a b——r at times.
Things just ticking along here. Spring is trying and I have been doing sow gardening.
Harry is settling and his lead walking is improving. I get the impression he was an outside dog. He just goes and lies down if nothing is happening. He does not amuse himself with toys or bones. He patiently waits to be told to come in from the garden and will not go through a door that is not wide open.
He is getting used to traffic and only reacts if it is a loud engine like a lorry or motorbike.

It has been mixed weather here. Some nice dry spells spolied by rain arriving.
Had a long walk today as it was so nice to be out in the dry. Harry is now flat out and I amm enjoying a coffee and thinking about waht I should be doing.

Nothing much happening here.
Trying to teach Harry to use his brain. He seems to have been left to his own devices anmd tp please himself.
He learns quickly but defaults to his one obsession- giving paws or jumping up. . He thinks that is the answer to everything.
Hung washing out and it started raining. Brought it in again, now sun is shining again, but I don't think it will last so not putting it out agin.

Where is Lewis moving to?
Got my grass cut on Sunday. I t was getting so long but constantly too wet to cut. The sun and wind on Saturday dries it out a bit.
Monday heralded the rain back. so I am glad I managed to get it done.
I hope you are not in one the areas that are suffering floods due to all this rain. Will it ever stop?
We have spates of cars being stolen around here. My car has keyless opening so I keep the key in a anti theft pouch. Iy blocks the signal to prevent thieves being able to capture the signal from outside the house and make off with the car.
Mind you, I don't think a Skoda Fabia is high on the list to steal.

Hope you are feeling better , owl
It is warm and sunny here but blowing a gale. I was blown sideways walking Harry. As I came down the passageway betwwen the houses it blew me forward. I could not stop running to keep my balance.
Otherwise a quiet day. Didn't risk putting washing out. I doublt it would have stayed on the line.
-
Iy has not rained today but snow, rain , gales forecast for the next two days but warm temperatures on Saturday.
I have a streaming cold preventing me from sleeping properly, so have not dome much today.
-
Still wet and dreich here.
I have ordered a new front door. if the sun shines( that should be WHEN thw sun shines) first thing it shines on my front door until late morning. When tha thappens the lock jams and I either can't open it or can't lock it, depnding on what position it was in.
I then have to wait until the sun moves over so it is not shining on the door.

Another soggy dog walk this morning but now the sun has come out.
Do you remember Happylittlegreensquirrel? Sam and her husband Mark moved to Sri Lanka to care for the feral dogs and founded the Dogstar Foundation.
A link came up on my Facebook this morning and I have been reading about their ongoing work caring for the dogs and cats that roam free.

Combed a football size bundle of hair out of Harry.
We have some sunshine today , for a change, but still a cold wind. I am fed up with this cold wind. It has been around all winter.
I should be doing some gardening but it is too cold.
-
We had a good run down , Freezing fog on Sunday morning but it quickly cleared.
Good run home. After a fidgiey morning Harry has a long pee at lunch tine breaj settled down to sleep for the rest of the journey.
Got home about 7/30 pm- 800 miles there and back.
Have had a nice steady walk round the neighbourhood. Harry thought he should speak to everybody we passed..
he is very riendly to everybody so far, including a litle staffy who was desparare to say hello.

Yes, not an insurmountable problem. Probably an inconvenience now that family have moved on. He is in foster with 3 Goldens.
When I lost Cleo I thought I would not have any more dogs due to age but , having had one or more at a time since 1972 it just didn’t seem right without a dog. I have trained and competed in obedience, studied dog behaviour due to having a reactive dog, and dabbled in agility. I have seen many changes for the better in training dogs.

My grandson wants to call her Princess but my son said NO. He was not going to be shouting 'Princess'.
