New Blog
Just to let you know I have now set up a new blog for the kennel alone. I will keep this one for stitching & general information, but the new one will be all dog related. I've been having alot of problems with my website constantly going off line with my service provider, so decided that this would be the best option for the time being. The blog can be found at

New Year Update
Happy New year to all!
Well, the New Year didn't arrive very smoothly. I managed to get the dreaded Flu, that put me in hospital with pneumonia for a couple of days along with a severe Asthma attack. Not what I really wanted to start the year with!
Clover is growing well and now 4 months old. She's fitted in really well with the 'Gang' and loves her big brother - Brook
Orchid is getting bigger by the day and only has 10 days left to her whelping date. She really doesn't know what is happening to her and is very clingy with me now. This weekend is count down start and I need to rearrange the house ready for her (& my) comfort for the next few weeks. I'm putting her whelping box beside my stitching chair so that she feels content and I can stitch away without her realising I'm keeping a watchful eye on her along with laptop & camera for the pics!
Crufts is looming fast and Willow & Brook's entries have been sent in. Cant believe I'm taking Willow down at 8½ years old, never thought she'd be back in the ring a few years ago after the problems having her puppies.
On the stitching front, well I have'nt got much time! I'm trying to get my Mary Wigham finished, and for Christmas I promised I would stitch a picture of Willow for my husband, so that is next in the stitching list - just need to order the fabric now- I have the chart back from DMC.
As soon as I have news on the pups I will post pics.
