We Do Dog Shows

Up with the larks saw me walking the dogs at 8.00 whilst Lou did the weekly shop - and the benefits of early morning walks were soon evident with the sound of footsteps on the still frozen ground. Frozen ground = no mud, no mud = clean dogs - now that was an enjoyable walk :-)

Lunchtime saw us take the short trip to Ryton where many of our friends were attending a dog show - we hadn't entered but thought it would be nice to go and watch so with Kiva and Mylo left behind enjoying some peace and quiet Taavi and Jaaka were taken out for the afternoon.

It was nice seeing old friends, furry and human, again as well as making the acquaintance of some new lappies - Jaaka succeeded in doing what puppies do best - making friends and winning hearts - he, and taavi, were stars, impeccably well behaved and great ambassadors of the breed.

Back home it was a walk round the village with the pack of four before settling in for our last evening as a pack of 4 - tomorrow Jaaka and Taavi go home :-(
