    Now I am super excited!

    Gypsy's trainer has just rung and they are going to visit a potential owner tomorrow!

    Her trainer says she's brilliant and very serious and hard working in harness and great fun 'off duty'. Gypsy loves busy towns, cities and shopping centres but gets a bit bored in quiet areas - so it looks like her owner will be in a city/town.

    We are booked to go and watch her work and then meet her on the 8th of January. I simply can't wait! Christmas can come and go for me, my present is waiting on the 8th Jan!

    Thank you all for your kind words - I simply can't wait! My friend is looking after Tatze and Twiglet is going to another puppy walker for the day. They said Twiglet could come - but I didn't want any distractions, and need spare hands for cameras and videos!

    Twiglet is a very different personality from Gypsy, but both are the same in that they will happily play with a toy on their own when nothing's going on :)

    I have asked for a yellow boy next time (hoping for a fox red, but you can only ask for 'yellow' or 'black') so that my memories of then don't all run into each other - a year goes by so fast!!

    Only just seen this. How lovely that you're going to be able to see Gypsy one more time and what a great sense of achievement you must have to see her starting her working life.
