well ,after the weekend fro m hell. he finally arrived. And taken over , 523397_3741635893426_1006327246_n.jpgand decided that the vitamins, extra food, cuddles and good company ( and maybe a bit of a miracle ) can improve hi s eyesight enough to tell the difference between a cushion and a old staffy's bumbottom.

Well we are getting used to the new boy and his weird Romanian ways. h e is on permanent segregation watch because The captain , the old staffy with little dog syndrome , ie the boss dog keeps telling him off and then getting bitten for his troubles. A struggle but fingers crossed we are getting somewhere now. . We finally got away for a few days to Mortimer forest, to do some socialising/learning with the whole crew...other dogs plus sheep and horses. The first time we tried we ended up at the vets.... Everyone seems to have had a goo dtime..... Tilly Mildred spent most o fher time inthe corner o fthe field watching and talking to the horses, oh and a big turkey. Youngster Jakey, who needs sheep experience as part of his training,and the new boy were amazed that the sheep all had coats and had to have them taken off. Blind jemma had a wonderful time....no big holes to fall downbut just lots of deep mud. The captain just told everyon e off all o fthe time andmanaged to keep evryone tangled in special contsructed leashing system with wires ,the puppy house and ground anchors. sadness though. My darling Tash, who has been withus for two years.... GDS heelerCross with seriou s dementia and swayback from a humongous tummy tumour... and beloved and best mate oF teddy texas himself had been one " just quality of life " for sometime .... was well enough to give me a cuddle when a pole fell on my head on Tuesday but started to go downhill very fast... We brought her home and she just held on till we bought her int o th e house...she was always a homebody ..lived for her walks and her grooming cuddles This on the Friday night..she beat us to it we had made an appointment at the vets forsaturday morning. She was about the cuddliest loving dog I have ever had. So we will all be visitting the mempark with her ashes very soon , as its the place she really enjoyed..... she coul d run free and all over knowing everyone she met humans and dogs woul d be nice to her...she had puppy mania ....all dogs were her puppies and had to be checked out , sniffed and licked , with a big laugh. It was amazing no dog ever reacted badly to her ...she only ever barked at one person and dhe had tried to kill me. So the crew is rearranging its dynamic. on top of this we have had four deaths in the larger family and dog s that have gone through our transport and homing efforts. Frightening and permanent panic with th e others all being variously poorly in dfifferent ways from over exertion and heat and probably sentiment. The middle week of July is not a good time for me ,my mum and dad went in it as did TT last year. So lots of tissues.

Thanks for your kind words... He is " Teddy Good Spirit" but in reality ...Floppity Bunny .. because when he makes his bed , after several highly energetic minutes of tredding , leaping in the air and turning about he suddenly goes limp all over and just drops into sleep, like as stuffed toy.
