Rosa

Remember little Rosa who was so poorly? Well, Cathy posted this today on facebook and very kindly said I could put it on the blog. Isn't she looking fabulous? The Archdeacon of Newark, the Venerable David Pickin (dad) makes a very comfy cushion!

Puppy Meet

On our last puppy meet this sweet Lab puppy bounced into our group and had a great time! He fitted in so well and gave as good as he got!

Birthday Girl

Rosa, on her 1st birthday. I've gone all gooey!

Cupboard Love

This was taken in February this year, old I know but I love looking at it now and again, just thought I'd share it with you. I am telling them a story, no treats were harmed in this shot! Cali, Alba and Rosa.

Chester

Chester, back in the show ring. Isn't he like his daddy? I'm not a fan of shows but can appreciate the stunning good looks the dogs have. Wonderful photograph!

Shane and Maxie

Shane (left) and his best pal Maxie. Partners in crime! Don't you just love them.

Chester doing what "we" do!

A few shots of the puppies I found! Aren't the lovey. I wish I could turn the clock back and have them all as baby puppies again! Next year we hope to have two litters, one with Cali and one with Alba, God willing.

Shane

Shane, he's a big lad!

Blood Donors

Cali and Alba are Blood Donors and have been for a long time. She may look fed up but she loves it (and the treats). http://www.petbloodbankuk.org/

Ty

Ty with his Best in Show trophy's and his sheep which is his to keep, well it was an agricultural show! I hope Brenda will forgive me for pinching this from fb. This is Ty, daddy to all of Cali's puppies. A real stunner

Rosa

Rosa, looking at the bee's. Remember Rosa? Incredible to think she has turned into this beautiful puppy (I knew she would). We were all so lucky that Cathy and David have taken her and she's so happy in Nottinghamshire.

George!

George settled in Hampshire. Of all the puppies, George was the one who gave me no grief at bath time! The blog has taken on a new look when you log in to post stuff, this may take me a while to navigate around :( and contrary to popular belief, I am still alive and ready to blog!

Oh, we have decided to get Alba scored!

Lazy me..........

I have to get my act together and use the blog more often. Life is fun (even without puppies) but finding the time time is hard! Promise to post soon.

Hetty

Hetty. One happy dog!

Sunday March 25th 2012

So good to see every one! Bliss..................

Cassie and Alfie

How about this! Cassie has a new pal, a Bassett called Alfie, Cassie's family have had Alfie for 3 weeks now, they are inseparable. What a joy it is for us Thorburn's to see the puppies as they grow. I do know of some breeders who think that once a puppy has left them, that's it!. Not a day goes by without me thinking of each and every one of Cali's puppies. I know it's a sin but I am very proud!

Shane at home.......

Nearly seven months old.  He's a big lad and I can't wait to see him at the "big walk" on 25th March 2012

TILLY

Tilly looking stunning. Then she crashes out and her family have airbrushed a sofa into the image! I can't wait till the 25th March when as many of us will get together and have a huge dog walk with mum and puppies at Rickmansworth Hertfordshire!!

Chester

I know what I think, best you find words yourself to describe this beautiful puppy!

Summer and Sam

Some lovey snaps of Summer and her best pal Sam. This is Cali's first litter. Makes me all broody now!

Cali Jnr

So funny, Cali Jnr with a Newfi and not a roll of Andrex in sight!"
