It's Spring!!

Spring is here, woohoooooo!!

What a relief is has been to see the sun again these last few days and for the temperature to be in double figures!

This called for a celebratory walk in the park with our besties Belinda and Busta.........

This did however, cause Busta to suddenly develop "Limp Tail Syndrome" (yes this is an actual condition!!!) for no reason whatsoever!  So there he was happy as larry having a whale of a time with a very floppy tail!! Thankfully it seems to be on the mend today although still has a bit of a kink in the end of it!  Seriously though only Busta!!!!

So I have been at my wits end with Marley's shedding hair since we moved to this house.  He has been malting since the day we moved here and is showing no signs of stopping!  Now I know there are terrible things in the world such as war and famine etc. but Marley's shedding hair makes me want to cry!!!  I have wooden floors that I sweep or hoover every day and as soon as I have finished, his hair has covered the surface again!  When he walks he is like a christmas tree that sheds it's needles!!  I find his hair in my shoes, in the bath, all over the toilets, in my food, in the washing machine seriously the list goes on!!!

Anyway my dog walker recommended I get one of these..........

THE FURMINATOR!!

It's claim on the packaging is that it reduces shedding by 90%!!!!!  Imagine my excitement!!!!  So £35 later (discounted online from £42!!!), after one brushing session this was the result.....

EW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This has GOT to make a difference to my floors if I do this to him every day!  I have done it today and already there is nowhere near as much hair coming off!  Poor dog will be bald by the time I have finished with him!

Anyway he had a treat today after we saw my friend Dawn where he originally came from, she gave him a bone that she got for him from the butchers!  So I put his bed outside in the sun for him and he lay there quite happily for a couple of hours.......

So enjoy the sun my friends, it is just so lovely and seems to put a smile on everyone's face!  And it will soon be summer..............

We're still alive!!!

HELLOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!  So it has been about 10 years since I last wrote and a lot has happened since then and none of it of the good, exciting variety!

I have been constantly ill since my last post and am currently deaf in one ear and about to cut it off!

We are desperately trying to move AGAIN, things have not worked out here which is a shame but I won't bore you with all the details!

Marley had his op and has recovered really well, but it has been a horrible horrible winter and therefore there are not many stories to tell about him!  Apart from him eating a sandwich the other day that I had made for Bobby's lunch, he swallowed it whole sandwich bag an' all!!!!!!

Will try and be on here a bit more regular now!!!
