Summertime Spoos

The road to hell is paved with good intentions!
I really did intend  to post regular updates here but it's 5 months since my last entry-oh dear!
In that time the spoo pups have really grown up.
They're the best of friends and now well integrated into the pack.
Frankie appears to have quite aceptable distant sight tho her close vision isn't too good - she manages very well  though and doesn't let it inhibit her enjoyment of life.

I started them both at dog traning classes in May - Frankie passed her KCGood Citizen Puppy Foundation test in June - Fiki is due to take her KCGC Broze test in September - they are both amazingly tracable, quick to learn andrealy keen to please.
I'm so glad all my fears that two pups together would spell disaster have not been realised!

I do try to occasionally give them some 1 to 1 time - to build their self-confidence and strengthen our bond- Fiki came to Cumbria for a (very wet) holiday with Zurie + Simon - Frankie stayed home with Ebs+ Caspurr. Both the girls started their seasons while we were away- Frankie was very pleased to see us return!

  2. Thanks Jane - just wish I could remember how to get into this blog from one update to the next - it always gives me such trouble- that's my excuse for not making regular entries anyway!
