Yesterday’s anxious 14 year old dog was indeed a bundle of nerves, but he didn’t try to bite at any stage. I got him shampooed, dried, and dozens of dark dots of hardened sap brushed or snipped out. I hurt my hand while helping old San into his vehicle. It was my own fault, really, … Continue reading

While I was fixing fences yesterday, I got a text from Kim, our youngest daughter. She’s planning a visit, yippee! My heart feels … elated. Hoping Susan et al can get here soon as well: little Linden is growing up and we are growing, uh, older. Or, we will travel. My Sunday grooming work was … Continue reading

Saturday was great … Dunster Market, visiting there with friends, more visiting down at Bonnie’s. I came home with some pretty special cargo from the Culp – Caywood farm at Dunster, Phillip went home in the afternoon and Rosie arrived. Rosie’s owner told me a most remarkable story. Not going to mention names. My friend … Continue reading
Yesterday’s “Saturday” draft …
These two arrived yesterday morning. It’s the first time we’ve met Mary Margaret, and Eirwen is a regular favourite. When they are holding their ears the same way, these two are remarkably similar, even down to the marking on the chest. They each have their own, um, complex pedigree. 🐾❤️🐾 I spent some time yesterday … Continue reading

Wheee! Dunster Market day! See what I did ? If I say “Dunster Market”, I don’t have to decide if there’s an apostrophe in Farmers Market. Farmer’s? Farmers’ ? If I remember, I will deliver garlic to Jane and have coffee on my way out to Dunster. The Saturday Market has become my almost-inviolable break … Continue reading

Thursday was a good day, as are most of our days. I should speak for myself, but there you go. I think Gary agrees. I groomed sweet little Bean, a favourite. I didn’t get a nice photo, sorry. Also, Roper had his usual short, plain haircut. I donated the work because of the challenges his … Continue reading

Plenty of work planned for today, but that’s a good thing. Buddy came back to board for a few days; he is the big border collie who escaped from here in the spring. Back then, he surprised (horrified) us all by going over two 6 foot fences, after chewing the fencing and barking all night. … Continue reading

So here it is, Wednesday. When I opened the WordPress application, I saw that I hadn’t launched yesterday’s post, even after wishing you a good day. I hope your Tuesday was bright and bonnie. Today looks beautiful here again. Poor Gary is truly suffering physically after his horseback ride yesterday. It was a long, hard … Continue reading

By the end of the day, Church and Mister were picked up, Tiger came and … Continue reading

It poured rain all night and I’m not complaining. It didn’t really disturb my sleep … I was simply aware of it. This will help with the fires elsewhere, and clear the air of smoke somewhat. I guess this goes without saying, in a sense, but it’s my blog and I can be redundant. 😉 … Continue reading
