The last couple of days have been all about the dogs. Poor Holly went in for spaying on Wednesday and has been feeling very sorry for herself. She's been wearing an old baby vest held in place by her harness to try and stop her worrying at her stitches. She's demanding the full princess treatment and if she's left on her own at all she whines until someone goes back to sit with her and pet her.
As Holly was out of action we offered to look after another AADI puppy, who's currently waiting for a foster home, for a few days so Bramble would have someone to play with . He's a 12 week old Chocolate Labrador called Chester and is a real sweetie. He and Bramble get on very well and they are certainly keeping the guys busy looking after them.
Amber managed to injure herself while playing with the puppies so we ended up taking her to the vets yesterday as well. Her leg is much better today but unfortunately she seems to have associated the incident with Chester and is laying all the blame on him. She now won't go anywhere near him so that's making things a bit tricky. Anna has been reading up on a bit of canine psychology to try and resolve the impasse!
We also had an amazing double rainbow last evening which had the children running over to the windows to see. This photo doesn't do the amazing depth of colours justice at all but I thought I'd post it anyway.
