So just a little update on the pups, they've been with me a month now (and Miika the kitten for a couple of weeks). I don't get chance to play with them everyday, but do try to spend a couple of days each week with them, so they are growing a little slower than everyday play pets. They're all now in their awkward gangly phases and getting big.

There's a lot of frisbee shows on at DG at the moment for the winter Olympics so frisbee training was in order. Ash loves it, Sparrow is quite happy to catch the frisbee but doesn't like giving it up and well.... let's just say it's not Vixen's strong point.

After one of the gameplay challenges Ash and Miika have become great friends, but sparrow and vixen still hate each other eek.

So every other month i'm planning on adopting a new gundog puppy training them up and seeing how well we do together. So meet Othain, a sweet little french pointer (dali OW). So far we've had fun getting to know each other, his favourite toy by far is the little mousie wool ball, but he apparently is not impressed with any of the food flavours on offer.
