This time next week Kizzy should be home with us and settling in after quite a long car journey. We are getting so excited!!
It should have been a longer journey, but Tim has very kindly offered to meet us halfway to save Kizzy the trauma of 10 hours in a car with strangers, [...]
Only a week and a half to go until we collect Kizzy!
I think we are pretty much ready for her arrival, and ready for the big change that will happen in our lives.
We have had dogs before, a couple of Lurchers and of course our Jack Russell, but none were puppies when we had them, and [...]
We had a short movie emailed through from Tim today, so it inspired us to set up a video page where you can view a few short videos of Kizzy and the puppies.

The pictures were taken today while the puppies were enjoying some sunshine, and are quite amusing, with the puppies all playing amongst the sheep and goats, and climbing inside [...]
If you can start the day without caffeine;
If you can get going without pep pills;
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains;
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles;
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it;
If you can understand when your loved ones are [...]
We had an update on Kizzy’s progress on Saturday and Tim informs us that she appears to be the most forward of the litter at the moment…not afraid to investigate her surroundings, and quickly accepting of them. He has been taking them all indoors for some TV and radio to get them used to the [...]
