Bobbin’s Eye

Bobbins is going to have her eye removed on Wednesday as it has become ulcerated. We knew her eye would probably be removed at some point. They will make a decision then whether to close her other eye. I think…

Animal Pics

Here are some Daisy photos along with a rather nice photo of Ludvig. The pictures of Daisy include her first walk in the country and her in the back of the car after she’d been to her least favourite place…

Dog Training

Training a dog which can see, hear and has all its limbs is certainly a new experience – well, certainly in recent times. I think Daisy thinks we’re a bit odd though, as we both can’t shake off the ‘oh,…

Amazing Grapes

When we were asparagus picking yesterday, I noticed that the almond trees are now full of almost fully grown almond fruit, which now just hang there and ripen for a few months. We’ve been almond scrumping as a birthday treat…
