    Got My New Whippet....it's Only Taken Four Years!

    And it was all completely unplanned! (w00t) This morning STARTED off pretty normal. Neil came home from nightshift at 7am and was complaining, once he was in bed, about not being able to warm up.....said he was going to put the electric blanket back on the bed until *and this is where he made...

    Diva doesn't want to cuddle up with us on our old lumpy sofa now she has her posh new crate!!! We bought her a gorgeous soft duvet bed today to make her crate as cosy and inviting as possible but THIS is how she repays us - she walked in as soon as Neil arranged the bed inside an hour ago and...

    Howling When Left Alone.

    We've had our Diva a month now and because of the shifts we both do - Neil nightshift 6pm until 6am - and me 5.30am until 1pm it was never a problem leaving her on her own. The longest she would ever be on her own would be on Tuesday & Wednesday mornings between 5.30 and 6.45am as one or both of...

    Ten-generation Pedigree Forms?

    Does anybody know where I can get hold of a Ten-generation pedigree form? I was talking to a customer who has Scottish Terriers today at work and she was attempting to see how far back she could go with her latest puppy's pedigree. I told her that you can - or COULD - buy pedigree forms that...
