Do you remember us?

Hello everybloggie

Sally here!  We have been gone far too long - we miss all our friends - and we hope you haven't forgotten us!

We have been busy - and we have wanted to tell you about it - but our human is a little over 'worked' at the moment.  But she has promised to put our friends first and get back to the fun stuff!

Just a really quick recap of all the things we wanted to share...

We went and represented Fox Terrier Rescue UK at Discover Dogs (a show put on by the Kennel Club to highlight all breeds and dog related stuff!)  -

This is the first year they had Breed Rescues represented so we were on our best behaviour - Paddy was active throughout all of it - I eventually flaked out and slept - but we were good!  We were surrounded by people and dogs for a whole day!!!  It was great fun if a bit tiring...here I am being sweet...

Paddy tried to get everyone to play with him and his toys!!!!


We were very tired at the end of the day - I had just enough strength to instruct my chauffeur to "Take me home, James..."


We also went on the WELTAF Christmas Walk in Regents Park - lots of sweet welshies - and us!



Afterwards we walked from Regents Park to Charing Cross - and on Trafalgar Square there was some protest or other - and everyone was dressed up like Santa!   Not sure if you can see them - they are a sea of red at the base of Nelson's Column !  We were very curious - we were trying to tell Santa we were good and deserved lots of pressies - but we did not know which was the real Santa!  



We had a lovely Christmas and New Year and we hope all of you did too!  Paddy has been doing well - his eyes are better and his pancreatitis is under control.  I have had lots of problems with my paws and am wearing socks!  The V-E-T wants to do some tests to see if it is allergies - or what????  I hope it isn't painful!!!  

We do want to ask you to think of us - D has decided she is going to groom us - you see, our regular groomer has been on holiday and is very busy - so D said we are too shaggy and need a haircut and can't wait!  - which we are not sure about - I mean lots of fur is cute, right?  


Fuzzy Paddy Bear

But send D some good grooming vibes (and any tips!) and pray we come out looking like Fox Terriers and not Poodles  (we like poodles and their haircuts - we just do not think it suits our bone structure ;-))

Lots of licks

A Welsh Christmas



Wow - what a wonderful weekend we had - we joined WELTAF and their Christmas walk! We met some lovely people and dogs - and we got to see Taffy again - we are getting lots of Christmas fun earlier than usual! We were thrilled they let us join them - D and C have a very special soft spot for Welsh Terriers. My Welsh brother Rowan went to the rainbow bridge last year and it stills is hard for D to write or talk about it. Maybe she will write about him in another post.

We drove to Battersea Park - and we did some moving photos of the scenery - Paddy loves to hang out the window - D puts Doggles on him to protect his eyes - but he eventually gets them off - and stays completely Al Fresco for the whole trip...


Paddy in the Limehoue Link tunnel...



Paddy's large nose and the Tower of London ...





Paddy and the Embankment with London Eye...



Paddy and the Houses of Parliament...




A very odd photo of Big Ben...


There are a lot more - but that would make this a very long blog. Plus the important photos are yet to come...

Like Meeting Taffy!!!



More welshies...



We were raring to get going...



I got to pull Blue around the park - I felt bad but when I am excited I just lose everything I learned in my Good Dog class. OOOps....

Group photo...



And a very festive Taffy...



Plus we got goodie bags for the dogs and for the humans too - it was the best! We just wanted to thank WELTAF for a wonderful day out and for letting us join them.

D needed to get a coffee (sadly she cannot do most things without the aid of caffeine!) - and on the way there was a charity plant sale and she bought a Blackcurrant sage - tastes like sage but smells like Blackcurrant. So she has planted it in the garden and hopes it will thrive - every time she looks at it she will remember the lovely day we had walking with the Welshies!

Lots of licks
Sally
