Hello Again

Have been so bad about updating my blog, even to the point that I've not shared with you my new brother.
May I introduce the very handsome Jake. He was rescued from the same Hell Hole of a puppy farm as me & has been living with us since November 2011. He's still learning about living in a house but is quite a cutie

Me & My Best Mate

Life has been soooo hectic recently that I have not had chance to update my blog.

I will try to back track a bit but just wanted to share a photo of me and my best mate - Charlie.

He is great fun and we play for hours and he has really shown me what I missed out on in my early life when I existed in that hell hole of a puppy farm

Thanks Charlie

This is him when he came home to us in February 2010

Back to Agility

After what seems like absolutely ages, I went back to my agility class this morning.

I had a brilliant time and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I loved all the work and really ran ahead of Mum - she had a job keeping up with me!!

And what made it even better was that Charlie came with me to meet all my fellow agility runners. He was well behaved though didn't quite know what to make of the Great Danes. He was totally shattered when we got home and since his lunch has been asleep.

Peace and quiet for us all!

Brilliant News

Well, me and my bros are sooooo excited.
Our hoomans have jsut confirmed that we are getting a new brother. He is only a baby and wont be here until February but he lloks gorgeous.
Just got to think of a name now.

Back to Agility

Had a fab day Saturday. It was my 2nd day back at agility & I
thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Couldn't resist showing off a bit and was beating my Mum around the
course.
Having said that, my new friend Bruce, is a real whizz and is going to
be absolutely fabulous come next summer

Annoying Moustached Man

Am I the only person who wants to give the "Go Compare" man a good
slap, followed by chopping off that rediculous moustache?

Lots of Outings

I have been very remiss recently in keeping my blog up to date but I have just been sooooo busy.
Mum is still at home with us recovering from her major surgery but we have been getting out and about especially at the weekends. Last weekend was very special when I attended a Giants Agility day courtesy of Harlequin Agility Club at Markfield. I obviously was not taking part but I thoroughly enjoyed watching lots of Great Danes, greyhounds, St Bernard going through their paces.
Pictures to follow.
The club now have a page on Facebook If you have giant breed dogs, please go along and visit the pages

Countdown to My First Ever Holiday

Me & Agility - a Love / Hate Relationship

As promissed here are some photos of me doing my agility. Dad is handy wiith the camera but seems to take a lot of photos of my bottom!!
However, I have found some and following on from my sucessful day today, when I was outrunning my Mum and behaving like a true Spaniel - ie lots of sniffing odd course, I feel it is the right time to post some.
Enjoy.



This is Diesel, one of the Trainer's Great Danes. I think Dylan thinks this is who he will grow up into!!

Update About Me

Well, I've been here nearly 12 months now. 12 months since I was rescued from the Hell Hole I lived in for 2 years and 12 months since moving in to my forever home.
I still get very frightened but cope better each day. Really enjoying my agility and even running over, up & through some of the objects. I'll get my Mum to post up some photos of me.
I promise that I will try to keep up to date with my blog
Lots of love & kisses

Our Present to Our Dad

We arranged for this picture to be drawn of us for our Dad. What do you think?
Jeff Brown, the artist has done a remarkable job and absolutely captured us - not only our looks but also our characters

October Already

Well, I can't believe that I have already been in my forever home for 3 months. I have to say that these have been the happiest days of my life so far.

A Terrfying Big Barn Place

I thought that my Mum & Dad loved me.

This evening we went off in the car, me and my brothers with Mum & Dad and arrived at this place we had never been to before. It was dark and cold and verrrry scary - though my brother protected me.

We had to go into this big barn place and I couldn't even get through the door. Mum had to really coax me and then it was a stop and dash entrance!! And my goodness, when we got in, there were three of the biggest dogs (I thought they were ponies to start with). Anyway, Toby introduced us and it turned out that they were Great Danes and it was their Mum Jill that we had gone to meet.

She runs an agility and obedience club and for bizarre reason everyone seemed to think that my attendance was a good idea - to try and find my confidence, whatever that is!!

Anyway, Jasper and me had a good time. Mum kept clicking this plastic thing that terrified me every time - but the bonus was that I got some tasty meat or cheese when she did. I soon realised that when she made this terrible sound, I got food. Perhaps it wasn't such a bad sound after all.

We stayed for what seemed an eternity and then came home. I was absolutely exhausted and slept the whole way home and for the rest of the evening.

Told Mum that it was OK and the other dogs were great unlike their humans, but I had tried that once and wouldn't bother again thanks!!

A Major First for Me Today

Mum took us to another part of Watermead Park today where there were hundreds of birds apparently called swans, geese, ducks, herons etc. I was a really good boy and didn't bother them - I didn't tell Mum that they actually quite frightened me.
Anyway, to my first.
Whilst out exploring all these new exciting smells, I cocked my leg. I have been watching my brothers do this, but I have never done this. Previously no room to cock my leg, but now, I am a grown up boy and cocked my leg with my bros!!

Getting Excited

Me, Toby, Jasper and the Humans are meeting up with lots of other Cockers and their Humans at Watermead Park. We know one another from Cockers on Line and this was how I first met my Mum & Dad (and brothers of course).
Also, my previous Foster Mum Sharon, Michael, Lewis and Jordan will also be there with the lovely Remy and her new sister Jade who I have not met yet.
Roll on Sunday afternoon

She's Home - and I am Objecting Strongly to Her Going Away Again

Well, Dad had just gone shopping and me and my bros were relaxing, chatting over the days events when suddenly the door opened and in walked Mum.
She had been away for 2 days with work and was shattered but nearly as pleased to see us and we were her.
I have had a little nibble of her ear whilst telling her that she musn't leave me again..... - well not until I am feeling a bit more confident

She's Gone Again!!

Well Mum was here this morning but I must say that I was a bit suspicious as when she left she had a bag with her.
Dad came home earlier on but Mum has not arrived
I have now had my tea and my walk but still no sign. She has been on the phone and apparently she is on a place called Solihull. I don't know if she has had a plane ride like before, or whether she needed her passport but Dad has given me an extra cuddle and said that she will be back tomorrow.
Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh

Relaxing Day and More Birthdays.

Just chilling and relaxing. Helped Mum to clean out the Tort's Home which I love doing but something gives me the impression that Mum does not agree - I simply do not understand where she is coming from on that one.

Also, one Of Mum's friend's birthdays today.

Judy is another year older and looking at this picture she looks as though she is great fun.

Happy Birthday Judy

Fabulous Day Today

New discoveries every day and today it is "Pig's Ears"

Mum & dad went out and did some shopping and bought us some prezzies back including these and they were absolutely gorgeous. I even stood up to Jasper when he had eaten his and tried to take mine off me. We all thoroughly enjoyed them.

Mum also keeping reminding us that we are going on a COL walk next Sunday and this means that I will meet up with my old Foster Carer Sharon and her family - I simply can't wait and hope that they can see a big difference in me - and all good I hope.

It is also my Uncle Martyn's birthday today. I have not met him yet, but Mum says that he is her big brother and very nice. I look forward to meeting him someday.

Happy Birthday Uncle Martyn
