hello! you can't be mad and love dogs. they do have a point - carly looks very like mr ben. if he was rescued from manchester area then i suppose there's a good chance they're related. the mad ones are the ones who give up such smashing dogs. hope all is well. ps perhaps now i can find her breed other than just hound!

Hiya, Sorry haven't been in touch! Even though it's school hols, it's manic here, with the microchipping campaign! I am happy for you to email me, either on my school account scole@thorpehouseschool.com or sue.cole2004@btinternet.com Would be good if we can link up. I have a meeting with Broadland District Council, this week... Would you like me to mention that you might like to be involved? They seem to be keen to get things done for free though! They are asking me about trying to get sponsorship etc.... It's good they are being careful with tax payers money though, I guess!!

Hi PogelsMum, I would like to obtain a 250ml bottle of you Chamomile Shampooch for our Hektor who after the stitches are removed from his snip is about to have his first wash. How do I go about this? He is an apricot blonde and as far as I know no skin problems but as he is only 7months old I thought the Chamomile would be the best.

Nothing else for it, this is going to be a GANG NEWSLETTER FROM CHAOS CORNER! Happy Spring??? Bank Holiday to all my readers. As I write it is Saturday night and I was speaking to my friend [one of the Jackies] who took the little Whippet X Lurcher, she went to a Game Fair today with her and ran her in the Whippet Racing.......... her very first effort, slow to understand where she was meant to go but then.........................whoosh........ finished 3rd and just getting going! Molly: Wonderful as ever, her phantom pregnancy is over but I noticed blood on a teat last Saturday, mastitis... more anti-biotics! She is actually coming in season, the boys are sniffing about and their teeth are chattering like mad; Molly soon sees them off though, it won’t be long until she is banished to a stable out of the reach of the marauding males! Horatio: Lovely dog, being very good and loving. Bert: Mindless as ever! He has a Molly Fixation, if we did not know otherwise we would say that he had been weaned much too early. He spends as much time as possible SUCKING Molly’s back, he goes into a trance of ecstasy pummeling her with his front paws......... but......... when she gets to the ‘interesting condition’ he suddenly grows up - real problems for him. This time it will be worse for him than ever as Molly’s substitute, the late-lamented FLOSS R.I.P. is no longer here to be his surrogate mother. Tallulah: Thinking about coming into season too, she is now missing her ‘partner’ Floss, maybe Annie will step into the breach, though I doubt it; Lu and Floss were an item for years. Alfred: The Teddy Bear of the family, a big kind, gentle dog who lives to follow my husband around [they go on holiday together!] Tig: The mobile hot-water bottle, he was getting depressed about the pups taking centre stage and we had to give him extra time in BED WITH US!!! He is much cheerier now, he has been assured he is still TOP DOG. Annie: Settling in very well, she had not put a paw wrong until this afternoon when she CHASED MY CAT! Death at dawn was threatened, I grabbed a broom handle and chased her with it, she cowered away, she was given the lightest tap with it, you would have thought by her expression that she had been thrashed within an inch of her life. She retreated to the kitchen and has avoided eye contact with me since! She is currently fast asleep in the puppy cage next to me. She continues to sleep with us, all goes well until she leaps up on TIG who is under the duvet, then there is a growling session from ‘The Master of the House’, Tig that is!!! We then re shuffle round the bed and with luck all is calm. One night Alfred arrived too and landed on them both! I evicted him altogether so he trundled down to a visitor’s room and joined her - opportunist! Annie plays with a tug, she takes it and prods various noses asking to play, so far the only one to take up the challenge was Little Ruairi who was quickly defeated. She tears round the garden and field [just had slurry sprayed........................] she seems very happy. Ruairi: Is getting bolder, he has turned on Annie a couple of times when she took his tuggie, I don’t know who was the more surprised! Caíomhe: Is not feeling very well, this morning she had the violent gut-rot, fortunately the pups were in the cage and so it was not too drastic, the thought of that lot on the kitchen floor............ poor little girl, she is really off colour today. General News: The pups and Annie went to visit Elaine-the-Dog Warden to get their licences and be microchipped. Here in Northern Ireland we have DOG LICENCES! It costs £5 per dog and there are no exemptions. One can have a reduced fee for an OAP, but there are no block licences unless one has certified breeding kennels Ministry inspected. I believe that the reason there are so many dogs destroyed here is that if a dog strays and it is not wearing a collar and a current licence disc the owner is liable to a hefty fine or if any damage has been incurred, prosecution. Therefore, dogs are abandoned rather than being claimed, it is the efficiency of the system here. Ah well, Better get on here, time to feed everybody. Best Wishes to you all, here’s hoping your dogs stay healthy and happy and so do you! Lynda. Call round and see the latest addition.

Easter Saturday update: Poor Floss was back in the Vet. this morning. More anti-biotics, steriods and eye drops. Had blood taken, good as gold - never moved and one hour later found out that her white cell count was very high together with high sugar, much increased from December ....diabetis? She's certainly not great. Horatio is segregated in the laundry room complete with large duvet and HUGE bone [don't know where it came from, Molly was out half the night gnawing it, I couldn't find her - wind, rain and she was hiding in the shubbery, I was off in the car to search the neighbouring lanes, visions of an unconscious Moll on the side of the road: panic at 1.30 am.] The rest of the Gang are fine, the pups are a delight, my phone and camera have never worked so hard! Time to think about dinner. Happy Easter and thanks for your concern and comments. Regards, Lynda

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL MY DOGGY-SNAPPING FRIENDS! True to any holiday time I have been into the vet.'s three times in about 18 hours! Floss has a cyst on her third eyelid, but it is a lot better today - we were prepared for surgery. So, more drops and anti-biotics. During these gales the door blew open [we now have it locked] and Horatio, Tallulah and Alfred escaped............. 4 hours later Tallulah arrived home muddy and triumphant, hose pipe, followed by loose box. Another half hour Alfred limped home - more washing; I think he has a slight strain of his second toe......... At last Horatio arrived an hour later, whilst hosing off black mud from the river bank and our field, I saw that he had a hole in his back and a tear on his shoulder, 8pm. I was lucky, there was still a vet in the surgery - 12 staples later............... Doing well today wearing his lampshade/halo!!! Hope you all spend a happy, relaxed and doggy Easter, Love from Lynda, Molly, Floss, Horatio, Bert, Alfred, Tallulah, Tig, Caíomhe and Ruairi xxxxxxxxx
