    We have been away in Majorca for a week, Twiglet has been staying with Puppy Walker Sue - I don't think she's missed us too much!!

    Here she is with GDP Frankie :)

    Silver girl! Twiglet earned her silver award today **very proud**

    She's exhausted now, as you can see - and so am I!

    Thank you all ~ I am super proud of her, she's as lively as a Springer, so very keen to work and keep on the go!. I have the date for her going to Big School ~ 25th May. I will weep buckets! (Hopefully all tears saved for after she's gone, her trainer is coming to pick her up)

    No new baby is coming until October as I have a few short breaks and weekends away planned, but I may have an older pup coming for 8 weeks or so as his puppy walker is poorly and finding him hard to manage (he has various behaviour challenges)

    His name is Deacon but I'm not sure yet about his colour/breed.

    :)

    Saying goodbye to Twiglet will be so sad, but such a huge achievement again Mags, to have another puppy ready to move to Big School so successfully. Make each day left with her a day of memories, and stock up with tissues. I think it may be a bit easier to see her drive off with one of the trainers as you can give Tatze a big hug straight away.

    Make the most of your time on those short breaks and weekends away, and look forward to a new fur baby in October. Look forward to seeing Deacon if he comes to stay with you for a couple of months, and how he develops under your great training skills xx

    Oh goodness, well done to you, and to Twiglet too. I am sure she is going to be a huge credit to you. :)

    The countdown is on, Twiglet leaves for Big School on Wednesday the 25th in the morning.

    My heart is breaking with sadness and bursting with pride.

    I've made her book of puppy photos for her owner and decided which toys will go with her.

    You've done a great job - and thank goodness you've got Tatze.
