Hello all! I thought it high time to show you all our newest pack member
. Meet Lance. Properly named Fritzens Zebadi at Clanardwood. He’s one of the most destructive little monsters we have reared. My sister has his sister. Called Brenda…The dog, not my sister

Lance is number 33. I forgot to introduce the addition from last year, Wren. She’s very second hand from Occitane. She carries one of my bloodlines, amazingly enough. We could not even catch her to bring her in the house for the first three days, she was a basket case when I picked her up. I had spent three days with the owner, and in all that time I could not even touch her. But she’s fine now. Still wary of loud men. And dogs . She hates all dogs except her pack. But I think she’s chocolate.

Wow!!! Which breeder??? Can’t believe it 
. Lovely! Vero, where did you hide him?
He actually belongs to my aunt 
I’ll ask her which breeder. My cousin had his sister
The one my grandparents had when I was little came from Anastasia Noble at Ardkinglas on Loch Fyne.
How very unexpected! The first dog I used at stud was Ardkinglas Enoch. Tasia passed away at 98.

My french grandson is a huge fan of Sean Le Mouton. That looks like something they would get upto.

I know exactly what this means. Smudge came to us as a rescue having been appallingly treated. He never showed an ounce of malice - just love. So of course, I adored him. Still miss him badly, even though we’ve had two lovely dogs since.

My 2 passengers yesterday to and from Pontgibaud near Clermont Ferrand.
The one on the left is Ramses with his new owner to whom I have delivered him, and the other, Doby, a refugee from the pays de l’est who has been, because sporting a foreign chip, in quarantine in St. Etienne for 6 months. I delivered him back to the same pension near me.
Both were ideal passengers in the car, never a peep from either of them to the extent that sometimes I forgot they were on board. The barking is not from either of them but the girl Dobermann, Pimie, who I delivered to them some years ago, back in the car. She was brought out once Doby was in my cage and then introduced to her new companion. A bit of a risk I thought, 2 dogs unknown to each other together on the back seat of the car, but latest reports are that all went well. 
There was a worrying moment back at Sharon’s pension when I noticed that Doby had one ear up and one down, just like Ramses, and thought that in the confusion they had given me the wrong dog. A check of the different collars settled that score though.
