A bit quieter and lighter built than what they prefer for hunting,so that suited us.[smilebigeye]
We have always had pups,so a bit different this time.
Certainly has a lot to learn...[biggrin]
And has a heap of energy.

The other one helping out is Rex,he is my sons,a 2yr old Collie cross Kelpie,and a big sook.

I like the way the 'Collpi' is assisting you in your endeavors.

Another one gone a week ago.
My youngest son's, 14 yr old Kooly,Pep
She was a great girl,and grew up with our( RIP) Springer,they had so much fun playing together over the years.

Pep moving on has certainly knocked my son around,but i suppose over time,he will get over it.

This is a sketch the DIL did,if the passenger seat in the Defender was occupied,Pep always lay on the Engle behind the driver.

Tough gig

Are you sure that leash is strong enough?

Yeh saves on fuel I can leave the car home

For the first time in many many years we don't have a dog in our house.
Poor little Daphne left us yesterday. She was 14 and had kidney disease, despite all that was still madly running around.
Then Wednesday afternoon it appears she had a stroke (apparently clots are more common with kidney issues), had trouble walking, lost bladder control etc. Poor girl was still happy to see everyone. She was a great little co pilot on our adventures.

All over 12 yrs old.Bloody sad.

It is really hard, we have lost three in the last year. They were all around the same age so was to be expected, but gee they break your heart.

Sorry to hear. Always hard.

Bugger, always so hard - sorry to hear. What can’t dogs live as long as us, it’s not fair they go so quickly after becoming such a huge part of our life.
