Winter is here lol

and the north wind shall blow….

You know i feel like I am being cut in half again but have done a lot of walking, though in my case that should read lurching and limping 😉 leafleting and putting  posters up for Seeks’s sister.

Its such a horrible thing to have happened and we just want her back and safe cus there are 2 really bad scenarios and both are so upsetting….. You never know there may be someone out there who bought her thinking they were rescuing her from a bad owner if she was sold on a sdtreet corner or pub…. They haven’t taken her to the vet yet though as she woild come up as stolen on her chip…..  Maybe tomorrow will bring some better news on her.

Seeks is 5.5 months old now (she was born on June 17th) and she is doing so well 🙂 Did her first real retrieve (by accident I think cus it was only the once lol) and gave it to me…. the next half dozen times she wouldn’t bring it back lol.

She is magic though lol

Still got several leads trailing behind her but she is playing ‘chase me’ less so that’s good…. I do find chase me a bit annoying. When I first got Haz it took me 3 hours to get him in the first day…… 3 hours of he bouncing and me getting more annoyed lol. He then ran trailing leads as did all but my Lilly who was was really good at coming back.  I could have killed Haz though as it was cold and wet and I couldn’t get him to come in… he has really improved from that hideous dog lol.

As colder weather has come in the bones have actually got worse but is the first time they have really been weather related so I don’t think its connected as such.  That hideous rib thing has got a hold just now the costa what ever its called lol and the back… oh its grinding and going down the front and back of my right leg….. See the pain doc on the 6th I think it is and hell do I need to.  This bone stuff doesn’t give up does it?!

The new tabs (well not so new now) really help though and they have a secondary thing that targets nerve pain in the spine as well as give pain relief so that might be why they are so good.

Now……

Little Breagh…..

Bre to her friends went missing…. I found her 3 fields away sweet talking Linda’s ram who was about 7 -8 months old… Bre is about 11 I think… bit like like me chatting up a 14 year old lol.

What she had done though is jump down a vertical bank at least 5’6 high…. and in front was a really nice stock fence that she couldn’t get over….

There was only one way to get her out and that was lift her up the bank…. hell that hurt and she was really stressed to the point I thought it would kill her. She went fairly flat and I really did think it had till her head cleared the top of the bank… at that point she woke up majority and used us as hoof rests and got her self the rest of the way but by the time we got up she was gone and try as we might we couldn’t find her at all….

I gave up looking about 3 but thankfully at 7 she was sat outside the sheep shed none the worst for her night out lol I couldn’t say the same for sure 😉 Lifting sheep up vertical banks I do not recommend lol.

The MTX has got the hand swelling a lot better so it does sort of do something but its not enough though all I will ever get.

I have this huge great springer on the arm of the chair and her legs keep pushing at me … she wants the chair I think lol.

Alba said she is now full grown and the biggest one here. That bit doesn’t amaze me as she was big as a baby lol. She will be 2 in march… where doe the time go?! Sign of getting old eh lol.

The kittens have really caught up now. Big enough to spey actually and so much healthier looking. Stoat os the bigger of the two but Broc isn’t too far behind them. They will never e big but you know what…. after nearly loosing them and them being so ill its nice to see them looking so well 🙂

Had the first frosts now and the grass is stopping growing. Soon it will be only Flower and Farley here so with luck Flower will stop being silly and go in the shed easier lol. I have to reinforce the centre barrier as its too easy to knock it down. Mind they don;t seem to mind being in together which is odd really. Flower doesn’t share all that well normally but in the shed she said she will 😉

Time for the rouges to take a turn as typing is starting to hurt a bit

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Right I have to work out some wording on the leaflets we art going to stick through letter boxes tomorrow….. We are trying to highlight Seeks sister as someone knows what happened to her….. Dogslost are brilliant and we can just use their number so its safer than ringing her owners who are rightly very upset. I sort of hope if I use the word confidential then someone might give us a lead even if it only helps to know where to start looking.

That the big problem with a stolen pup where do you start looking but look we must and making her very hot so the ‘too hot to handle’ thing comes into play can only help as well….. Just not so sure how to do that. She has been in the paper and on the radio. Have posters up but letter boxing seems a good idea now….

There were 2 dogs stolen out a garden or kennel (not sure which) and they were being touted round pubs so its likely that’s a known route and the little pup was dragged round till she was bought… from there who knows but please let it not be the 2 really bad things and let her be safe….

Its really upset me as it so easily could have been this little girl and i know the pup and she is so sweet and trusting and wont be for long if they treat her badly. It can be undone but she never deserved this and nor do her Mum and dad.

You all take care and please keep your fingers crossed  x

Stolen Spaniel Pup, but Not Mine…..

Its Seekies sister though so close to home……

She was taken on the 16th out of her locked kennel in the early evening. She very like seeks to look at but has a bit less white on her face and a bit more white on her body.  Because she was stolen she actually could be any where in the UK….. Though we think she was sold for a quick bit of money as some of it does point to that though we don;t know. Its wasn’t a professional job as they took only the one, left the fully trained adults and shut all the doors and left the pups safe when they left.

The people that bred Seeks are really nice people and their dogs are so normal but they are working dogs and there is a market for them so the pup could have been stolen to order…..

Its not helped by folk in OK magazine and such like saying how lovely springers are but omitting to say the kind of home they need as Springers really do need 2 or more hours of real exercise a day or you have trouble with them.

If I remember rightly her white on her face comes up to just about her eye level and Seeks comes to the top of her head which is why I had her and not the other little pup…. the idea that had I had the other one it would be Seeks out there is horrible actually.

Could those of you in the UK keep and eye out and if your on face book could you circulate her dogslost poster please? I know I text some of you and she is out there but she needs to get hotter in order to get the people who took her to dump her to be picked up and returned via her micro-chip or sometimes they hand them is as strays.

Either way we want her back as she is a lovely trusting pup and I so hope that hasn’t changed.

Her doglost details are here and the poster is at the bottom if you clock on poster.

Promise I will up date now but just please keep your eye out for the pup as she could really be anywhere.

Take care and thanks x
