    Looks lovely.
    Liking the loose lead walking past the sheep.

    We are off for a few days - the lady at the adjacent farmhouse says they have 4.5 acres enclosed garden....and a golden retriever.....and free-range chickens :eek: :eek: (reassured me that the latter were only out from lunchtime to dark ;D )
    Not nearly as impressive as a country estate, but looking forward to some R&R.

    Great pics. Poppy has a lovely smile and a very sweet face. And impressively muscly shoulders :)

    Yes, Poppy says she loves England and wants to move here. She has become a lot more self-confident during her visit. Did some VERY impressive blind retrieves out of the river this morning, and then saw off a big German Shepherd who tried to muscle in on her dummies... :eek:

    Back to Sussex this afternoon, then we are driving back to Frankfurt tomorrow. But we'll be back next weekend for another week, so it'll be UK Visit Part 2... :)

    Back home, all well (though I am exhausted...).

    I was just going to write about how good the channel tunnel crossing is, but I think I'll put it under the 'Dog Friendly' section, in case anyone is thinking about taking their dogs to Europe.
