Hi Jan, Just a quick Hello! Hope you are all ok. We are back in training mode big time here! lilia was brill tonight walking to heel really well and her recall is coming on. We are off to see a trainer on Wed to see how to stop her jumping up at people and just have a general refresher on what I should be doing. did I tell you Lilia killed Piggy Saturday night. A bit of stuffing came out so that was it - his snout was off and he was destuffed! Bad girl. Hope Scrappys ok and still has his piggy. Take care. xx
Hi Di, I thought Lilia was being good when she was out now, she's still a baby really. What a shame about poor piggy you'll have to get her another one, Scrappy has still got his. Scrappy has been golden on that canny collar it's lovely to take him out now, Dan's going to get Lola one now, he said he wasn't going to get one but we took them both out yesterday and he couldn't believe how good Scrappy walked on it. Hope your feeling better now, give Lilia a big kiss from us, Speak soon, Jan x x x
Hi Di, Lilia will be ok just got to be patient with them lol. I've just put a video on with Chloe walking Scrappy with the canny collar on, she held him all the walk, she's so chuffed because they really love one another. I've got to get Diesel a piggy tomorrow, hope your both ok, speak later, Jan x x

Hi Debi, thanks for the birthday wish for Scrappy, he had a great day, his favourite toy his the piggy Pam bought him, he won't leave it alone lol. Scrappy is still walking lovely on his canny collar, it's the best £15 i've spent. Hope your all keeping ok, speak soon Jan x x
Hi Jan, so glad you got the collar, Bullit does really well on the collar but he dont like having it put on and when we stand still he is still trying to rub it off against your leg, but the walking is so much better. speak later Debi xx
Hi Lynne, I feel a lot better now thanks still got it on my chest (smoking doesn't help) lol. The photo's are lovely i love the one with Toby on his back, that's how my old staff used to sleep. Have you had any luck with Venus and the collar yet? Scrappy is still brilliant on his, saw our postman (Kevin) this morning and he has always made a fuss of Scrappy, when Scrappy see's him he pulls like mad to get to him, but today he just walked to Kevin, Scrappy did jump up him for some fuss, but that's the first time he has jumped up anyone with it on. Hope you are all ok, give Toby and Venus a big kiss from us, speak soon, Jan x x x
Hi Jan, so pleased you are getting better, its a pain when it lingers on the chest, but like you say smoking doesnt help lol Good old Scrappy, I'm glad that the collar is working for you. I decided to have the weekend off so the collar didn't get used, Mark took them, and yesterday I noticed a couple of youths on the entrance to the beach an decided to stick with the harness, especially when one of them moved out and blocked my path (I paniced for a minute) but I needn't have worried, he just made one hell of a fuss of the dogs!! Its pouring this morning so don't think I'll be messing around today! Big hugs, speak soon hun xx
Hiya Jan, Just thought I'd pop by before I'm off to bed to say thanks for your comments on my new pics. I hope you and your gang are all good. Speak soon.
Aww thanks for the lovely comments hun, hows things with you and the lovey Scrappy - all good I hope. Hope you are feeling better now and over your flu. Big hugs to you both, speak soon hun xx

Hi Jan ! I must seem stupid or something but you were saying about scrappy walking great on a canny collar what are they like? Duke is sitting on the top of the chair above my daughters head looking out the window he's sooo nosey. Love to scrappy glad he had a wonderful birthday he really enjoyed ripping the paper off those pressies. x x Jenny and Duke
Hi Jenny, Debi (tizaac) put a blog on last week about the canny collar and when i went on the site they looked good so i ordered one for Scrappy, he is a big staff and when we first go out he pulls for the first 5 minutes and if he see's anyone he knows, now he doesn't pull at all it's brilliant. Scrappy opened most his presents himself lol, his favourite toy is piggy what Pam bought him, he loves it. Scrappy likes to get in the frontroom or my bedroom window to look outside i think they are all nosey lol. Have a nice day, speak soon Jan and Scrappy x x x
