Annie, Daisy, Joon and Benny have spent hours in the garden today playing racey chasey games under the watchful eye of Auntie Bobbie. By the time they had finished the lawn and garden just seemed to merge into one brown muddy bog. Then it all went quiet........they were busy digging holes and were no longer black/white but brown/white !!
JOON has "guilt" written all over her face ! well would you trust anyone with ears like this !

Peace and quiet as they recharge their batteries. Here we have the "long" and "short" of it ! Dynamo DAISY with her short legs lying with long leggy ANNIE

These two always snuggle up to each other, JOON and BENNY pushing up the zzzzzzzzz's

I wonder what they are dreaming about ?

Love Eleanor and 4 very tired puppy dogs, Annie, Daisy, Joon and Benny xx

Please save us !!

Our fostermum has threatened us with the "sausage factory" !!!! she says we will make lovely little scrummy sausages.........we didn't mean to misbehave today, honest.
Fostermums brother was busy renewing a fence panel when DYNAMO DAISY kept on picking up his gloves and assorted toys and charging around the garden, whilst BRAVE BENNY was egging on JUMPY JOON to get a bit closer and nip his bum !!! Where was ANGELIC ANNIE whilst all this commotion was going on ?? .....sitting by fostermums side watching it all and taking notes !!!!
Puppies , don't you just love them !!!!
LOve Eleanor and the sausage pups xxxxxxxx

Fun and games !!

ANNIE was supposed to be keeping an eye on the other three...............BUT she seems to have fallen asleep on the job! Meanwhile dainty little DAISY is wreaking havoc in the kitchen with a roll of kitchen towel. BUT how could DAISY possibly have reached it off the worktop as her legs are so short.........me thinks she had an accomplice in the leggy ANNIE, who is now pretending to be asleep !!!!!!!!!
Where oh where did you get those EARS !!!!! Both JOON and BENNY have incredible sticky up ears at the moment.........and they don't miss a trick, and somehow hear me opening the fridge as quietly as I can and heard a piece of cheese drop onto the floor and had eaten it before I had chance to bend down !!

Here is " trouble" with a capital T . She may be small, look cuddly, have gorgeous melting brown eyes BUT don't be fooled......she is the BOSS and is very busy keeping the others in line but has a knack of starting off mischief and making sure that the others get the blame !!

I wonder what they will get up to next.......watch this space.!!

Love Eleanor, Annie, Daisy, Joon and Benny xxxx

New Guests have booked in !!!!

These four beauties arrived at Wiccaweys today following their long journey from our rescue friends in Eire. They have enjoyed exploring the garden....or should I say charging around playing racey chasey games turning the lawn into a giant mud slide !!!! Then of course they have paddled about in the kitchen with their muddy paws. They certainly seem to have recovered well from their journey.
Here we have ANNIE, a really creepy girl who just loves to be as close to you as she can possibly get. So far she seems to be attached by velcro to my legs ! Annie has lost part of her tail but it doesn't stop her wagging her "stump" so hard that I think she is going to get airborne.

Next is dainty DAISY, a small stature collie but boy can she move..she is like a rocket, blink and you miss her! Already she seems to be quite a character and has a gorgeous little face.

Finally brother and sister act BENNY and JOON, just lovely happy playful pups

Guess we are going to be busy for a while, looking after, playing with and generally spoiling our latest guests............................hope they have a great time, I know we will for as long or short a time that we have them.

Love Eleanor, Annie, Daisy, Benny and Joon xxxxxxxxxxxx

Shiny Happy Macky!

 

Mack has had a bath! Mack has been bathed before but we did it on the patio with buckets of water. Yesterday we were brave and introduced him to the tub.

 

Getting him in was like trying to fold wood! he spread his arms and legs and was too wide to get in. :-)

Once he was in the bath he just stood there and  didn’t fuss, struggle or move. What a star! He was finished in 5 minutes. Drying him was no problem as he likes being towelled dry as it is like being stroked.

I think you will agree it was worth doing as Mack is lovely and shiny.

Now it’s raining and Mack is going to get muddy again! oh well, we enjoyed him being clean while it lasted. :-)

Wonderful day

Today I got an idea of how well Mack is progressing. On our afternoon walk I took Mack on a route he has never been on before, We went up an alley behind a junior school which is narrow, half way up was a council worker picking up trash! The man was large, wearing a high viz jacket and holding a trash picking tool? all things that should spook Mack! When we got level with the worker he spoke!!! He started asking about Mack, after I had explained how nervous Mack is and warned him that Mack may get scared of his tool and trash bag he crouched and offered Mack his hand! Mack went straight to him and sat to be fussed. :-)

    

I think I witnessed dog and man fall in love? The man couldn’t stop saying how great Mack is and Mack was lapping up the attention, the sad bit was that the man can’t have a dog where he lives. :-(

Mack was an angel, he was either sitting next to me and looking up at me or he was sitting next to the council worker doing the same.

I think that if someone comes to Wiccaweys and meets Mack in a relaxed way as the council worker did and spends time with him without pressure, Mack will win their heart.

I have a feeling that Mack’s time will come soon?

I sure am gonna miss him when he goes.
