good to hear on the progress of Zip, Rascal has too much brain power. he can open doors does not let himself out but to come back in. He climbs over the field gate which is across the back garden to keep dogs in not him. runs to his pen at meal times before I have even started making up their food. Sleeps in our bedroom beside Jake but has tried his very best to get in bed with us which is a no no. Loves his ball and Jakes also Tanya's runs about like a mad thing trying to collect them all. I now make him sit and wait to give the others a chance to play too. One thing about having him, life is never boring.

 .......IT`s nice to hear how the  youngsters are getting on 

 Meg is really enjoying the sheep work on the farm – she has almost taken over  the old dog Gypsy`s duties  , and although be really excitable and strong willed, we are progressing with training and  I think she is starting to listen to me! 
 Here she is helping me move some ewes ……

And I think Gypsy is really appreciating not having to do all the” leg work” as she gets stiff these days.
----poor old “gyp”      Just look at her face!:------ she gets  really fed up  with the puppy at times!

My old German Shepherd Tanya has the same look with Rascal, i may sure she gets peace when she wants it.

The old dog does look fed up doesn't she?

... well yes, there is certainly some rivalry between the two of them,but Gypsy has the previlege of sleeping indoors  and gets extra cuddles then
