Fred and Elsie went on their first doggy playdate this weekend. These doggies are the same ones that Fred and Elsie went and visited the morning they both wandered off for four hours in the morning. Meet Dexter: and Rascal: These two are very different dogs from my two sooks.... Continue reading

A few weeks ago we finally got around to getting the electric fence put up. This resulted in two dogs who are now terrified of coming out of their dog house. For the first few weeks Elsie would go inside the pen, go straight into the dog house and all... Continue reading

This weekend was met with a little drama, as late on Sunday afternoon we had an unexpected visitor come to our front door: Meet Betty the Goat. Apparently she was a feral, let out by farmers a while ago. A quick call around determined that no one wanted her, and... Continue reading

Came home one afternoon and spotted this: He looks so grumpy! Most evenings Elsie crawls into my lap or sits right beside me, until I am forced to acknowledge her. It's not hard when you have a girl sitting beside you, staring at you patiently. Once I let her into... Continue reading

Came home last night to two happy puppies. Fred seemed back to normal and lively. Was pleased to see that his grazes were starting to scab over a little. Let them run around the yard a little before letting them inside. It seemed to me that Fred was very rough... Continue reading

So it's been just over a month since Elsie came to stay with us. She's settling in pretty well and seems to get along well with Fred. She's definately not as laid back as him, but she's very sweet. Here's her pound picture: And a pic I took of her... Continue reading

We had a bit of a scare on Monday morning. As mentioned in the last post, we currently have to tie our puppies up when we leave for work. They sleep inside with us at night and in the morning get let out to have a pee before being tied... Continue reading

Due to lack of funds we have yet to put up a secure electric fence for the puppies. As a result they are tied up on long 9m and 5m leads. Fred has a tendancy to tie himself up either around a tree stump or get stuck under the water... Continue reading

Freddie and Elsie had a big run yesterday, playing around in the yard. Fred's so rough with Elsie, that I worry sometimes that he's inconsiderate of her size and frame. So last time after dinner I decided to groom her a little. I wasn't really up to giving her another... Continue reading

I walked by the pen the other day and was greeted with this: Remember that hole in the canvas? I wonder now whether or not Fred really was responsible for this or not. I was reading the other day on a dog forum about people buying doggie 'sleeping bags'. I... Continue reading

With daylight savings officially kicking in I can come home when it's still light and let the puppies out for a bit of a play before we head inside. I managed to get my camera out this time and catch a few pics of them having fun. They're primed and... Continue reading

It was a rainy long weekend, windy and wet and very miserable. As a result the puppies lucked out and got to spend most of the weekend inside. Here is what I was met with when I happened to turn around in the kitchen at one stage: They look so... Continue reading

When I went looking for a second companion dog I'd subscribed to a number of pounds and pet rescue sites. After we got Elsie I started unsubscribing. Yesterday I got an email in my inbox from the Queanbeyan Pound where I'd gotten Elsie. It turns out I'd forgotten to unsubscribe... Continue reading

I came home last night and was met with this: No dogs. To say I was worried would be an understatement. Elsie's dog tag hasn't arrived and although both have been microchipped there is still the possibility that either of them could have gotten hurt or shot while out wandering.... Continue reading

So despite all my worries last Friday, I came home relieved to find a very wide awake and happy Fred come and greet me. Elsie and Fred have started getting to know each other better and have been either left outside in their pen to play or off leade while... Continue reading

Freddie came home after desexing yesterday. They gave him anesthetic to put him out, and when I went to pick him up, he walked soooo slowly - like an old man. His tail wagged a little, and he looked sooooo dopey. It tore at my heart strings to see how... Continue reading

It will be with great interest that i see how Elsie develops. The nurse @ the vet reckons Elsie is going to fill out a bit. I've yet to see whether or not Elsie will be a good watchdog. Last night hubby came home and she went up to greet him. I think she's not as dependant on humans as Fred is. She definately seems a little brighter. It is nice to have a dog that's easy to control though. Fred you have to use all your strength to walk him if he gets sidetracked. Elsie on the other hand you can just drag along with you. She was trying to run on lead the other day (she got distracted by Fred) and she flew up in the air because i yanked her back. So funny!

Just digging through my photos and found some funny ones I took on Tuesday when I was at home to keep an eye on her after her desexing. The vet had requested she keep her elizabethan collar on to stop her from licking the wound and chewing out the stitchess.... Continue reading

Here is Elsie, our new wolfhound x greyhound after her wash. There's been plenty of activity since we brought her home. Freddie was extremely jealous on Monday night. I didn't expect that. Every time I cuddled her there would be whines from him. The funniest thing though was when he... Continue reading

It's been a while since I last updated. We've been talking about getting Freddie a companion for a while, but timing was never right. We were either moving house, going away on holidays or simply getting on with life and short of cash. For a while there, talk of getting... Continue reading
