Here we go again.... This time it is Tuchena's turn! On 14th March I noticed a large cut on Tuchena's hip. She and Zephyr had been playing in the garden and they can play rough and fast. We guess that this had something to do with it, but can't be sure. She obviously caught it …
Proper Snow!
A couple of weeks ago 'The Beast from the East' brought heavy snow to the west country. We rarely get snow of any significance, so along with the chaos it causes (being stuck at work for two days because I couldn't get home) it is also a great opportunity for us to get outside and …
Trip #2 in Albus – The NC500
So this is it, the reason we bought the camper van.....a 12 night trip around the Scottish Highlands. We planned to take the route known as the NC500 (North Coast 500) which starts at Inverness and heads West, follows the West Coast up to Durness, then the North Coast road East to John O'Groats and …
Not a Wolfdog, but the Best Dog…
Hendrix 24.06.2005 - 24.02.2017 Hendrix was 'the' dog, a dog in a million and the dog that changed our world. He was our first dog, we were young (ish) and had no idea what we were doing. It didn't seem to matter though, Hendrix knew exactly how to be the …
Hello 2017….let’s get some adventures under way!
So, the Christmas and New Year break were busy for Zephyr 🙂 I made lots of plans to continue to work on his ever growing confidence (have i mentioned just how proud I am of him lately??). The first few years may have seem so terribly slow and soul destroying, but we are now reaping …

Small Steps make Giant Leaps
We have been working on building Zephyr's confidence pretty much constantly since he came to live with us. He has always struggled to go anywhere other than the field next to our house. When we have taken him to other places it has always been with the support of another dog.... that was until recently …
Snuffle Time
When you go on holiday in the UK during November it is a good idea to have some 'rainy day plans'. For me this year, that included attempting to make a snufflemat for the dogs. The idea of a snufflemat is for there to be lots of layers for a dog to snuffle about in …
Busy and Beautiful September!
We have been so busy for the last couple of weeks that I haven't even had time to upload photos of our adventures! September has been great - I spent 6 days at Tilley Farm on my fourth TTouch Practitioner training clinic. I took Otis this time and it was lovely to have him to …
2015 in Pictures 35/52
We had a wonderful surprise visit from friends Jordan and Liam. Tuchena was in her element having two men to flirt with. Zephyr was brave and said hello to both of them.

New Sofa!!! (Well, it is actually second hand, but new to us) Why so excited? Do you remember what Zeph did to the old one? I have tried hard to forget, but lets just say it was EPIC! Anyway, it has been 2 years since we had a sofa but now think Zeph is at a …
