Tuchena’s turn to visit the vet!
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 # 5 in Albus – My Best Friends Wedding and The Welsh 3000 challenge
When your best friend lives an 8 hour drive away and is getting married, the best thing to do is turn it in to a road trip 🙂 We set off the afternoon before the wedding and headed North. We took our time stopping regularly for breaks as it was warm (less so the further …

Trip# 4 in Albus – Climbing in Portland
Leon had planned a day trip to meet a friend to go climbing for the day. At the last minute we decided to make a weekend of it as we needed cheering up and I didn't wan't to be left home alone. I am still finding the house too quiet and empty since we lost …
Trip #2 in Albus – The NC500

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 …
A £1000 Mystery!
On the evening of Sunday 23rd January this year, Zephyr came in from the garden looking like this... ...I thought perhaps he had been in a scuffle with a badger, although we hadn't heard anything. I bathed it in hibiscrub in case there was anything nasty lurking in it and went to bed. The following …
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 …

Dartmoor – A turning point for Zeph
It can sometimes be hard to strike a life balance when you live with Zephyr. We have come such a long way in the 3 years he has been with us, but this has been partly due to quite a few sacrifices on our part. The things we took for granted before Zeph joined us became …
