All the pups left on the weekend but I’ve kept the runt back as I don’t feel I’ve found the right person. I’m looking for a young lad that’s keen to get out with his old man etc or a decent fella who keeps dogs for life not use and abuse them. The pup will be free of charge to the right person, he’s very well bred, he should make 23-24. He was the most confident pup in the litter. Absolute character. I’ve turned down money for him as I don’t feel the homes were right ones. He’s the pup looking at his old man, he’s genuine 3/8 wheaten 5/8 grey. who ever ends up with him wont be disappointed as

Time is the only currency you spend without knowing your balance,use it wisely.

Another young one, happy days

It gets worse

Nice few fish last night

chicken dinner..

A mate of mine is making some cracking collars, he was in the queens guards for years and became a master sadler making all the tack for the royals especially queen Elizabeth, He's given me a couple of collars to see what lads think, lot of work goes into these collars and all done by hand

Na mate shame aswell as I had botch bred other way, 5/8th grey 3/8 wheaten an she done everythjn I asked of her, wasn’t the best dog in world but a decent honest notch j could take anywhere an have a bash at anything

The new apprentice . Unfortunately my dog never made what I wanted . Once the workload upped he wasn't to keen . Gutted to say the least as he ticked a lot of boxes but just never had the heart, so I've got his brother here now . Hasn't done much the last few weeks so need to put a couple of weeks into him first but won't take long as he hadn't been sat round up until then. Been doing well on the edible but let's see if he works out for me .

My permission; Hope I’m not giving too much away Cheers.

The old estates are fascinating to be fair ...I was fortunate to work on Wellbeck in north motts for a short time back in the 80.s... And this might sound a bit geeky....but this week I was working close to Uston estate in Norfolk...went through the village every night....and was explaining to my colleague how places like Uston were big boys on the block back in Victorian and Edwardian game shooting times...Uston / Elvdon often had keepers sent to them to learn game rearing ...I think it's Uston that had one method named after itself...going through those old villages ....all old kepper

mine was that size at same age made 19tts, I was hoping for bigger but thank fxxk she didn't, I think the smaller ones are far better suited to what I want, around cover, hedgerow, embankments etc.

Steak garlic butter, chips, egg, black pudding, little bit of pepper sauce on the chips.... Beer

Butter and thyme baked cod loin, with cream mash and griddled asparagus tonight

Steak and Chips. Cheers Arry

Wifey did a Farm shop Tamworth Pork Chop with every thing she could think of. Cheers Arry

They already little characters, they was indoors first 3 weeks, they have the sleeping area of kennels plus a 10x4 run and have access to it all the time so they have plenty of space and my grandchildren are also really hands on playing with them, of course they hard work but they deserve the best and I looking forward to seeing how they turn out.
