Our Lickle Family







Now that Fizz has gone to her new home we have been spending more time on a one to one basis with Luca and the rest of the pack. We were aware that she may be missed so made changes to our routine to bring him into the ways of the pack rather than the ways of the pups. He is fed along with the big dogs now and being the youngest is bottom of the heap so is fed last. No probs Mum, just as long as I get it, I'm fine. He watches in a beautiful sit till it is his turn and so far has just looked at the girls plates but not ventured too close yet!! As we have been at so many shows, he is used to sleeping in the van, so the four younger dogs are sleeping in it at home as we are away more than at home for the next two months. So far he has gone through the night and is dry, waits for us to get up with out whinging and is so pleased to see us. He wears his harness to go walking now and is so proud when he can go where the big dogs go. So the little worries we had about him missing his sisters would appear to be unfounded. The feedback from the other pups has been very positive also. So, all in all we feel this has been a sucessful venture on our part as well as extremely emotional and rewarding. Betsie is now back to competing, has her figure back and building up her stamina. We will be meeting up with three of his sisters this weekend at Dashin' Dogs if the weather does not get too bad to call it off. Mike and I with Kizzie and Tigi have the laser Pairs Final on Tuesday, so hope it is not called off. Up against Jackie and Del Boy, hope not drawn against them. Tigi got a first for our pack by getting placed at the KC Int. Fsetival last weekend. The comp was very hot so really pleased with her especially as it was her very last grade 3. Last photos of Fizz just before she went. Looking more like Mum now.
