Mac has taken to his new surroundings extremely well, he's charged up & down the garden, explored the bedrooms and tried out each bed - think he liked mine the most- and has had a wash and brush-up (which he loved). He is stilll full of energy and seems very cheerful. My kids are absolutely head-over-heels too! Going out for a walk now. Will send a photo via my mobile if we get a good 1 in the next few days.
Love, Alice |

MacTarn is doing really well. He had had an episode with 2 separate dogs over the summer so the family have started to adorn a muzzle on his walks. He is doing well on the muzzle as he is almost 100% trustworthy with dog so they are able to allow him contact with dogs and keep his confidence up. Brandy and I went over there 2 weeks ago and Alice found it helpful and wanted to keep trying. I called 2 days ago. The son said they are keeping to walking him on a muzzle and love him very much. They have arrange a dog walker to come in in the middle of the day when they return to school (Alice is a teacher) _________________ You can't train the terrier out of a terrier!

Mac (Tarn) invited me in today with the air of oh hello come in nice to see you after all this time. He was so happy in himself. So loved by all. His little ways have been discovered; managed and accomodated. He is the perfect weight. His fur is wonderful in such good health. Such a loving boy you can see how much he has worked on each one to win their adoration. No he isn't perfect but perfect in his own ways and becoming more perfect with each day! Wonderful Patterdale specimen.
Signed sealed and licked! Mac Tarn is offically HOME _________________ You can't train the terrier out of a terrier!

Sadly Mac (Tarn) came back into our care on the 16th Oct. With the adult out of the household in France his 2 custodian teenagers had a fight and Mac rushed in and bit the one waving his arms at the other (in fact to disperse hairspay in amongst shouting).
Advice was for intense trust rebuilding but attempted without focused follow through. As Dee said any dog would have got involved, just the teenagers lack of awareness of how to behave with a dog in the house. House became a teenage pad in mum's absense with Mac being held upstairs whilst friends came around as now fearful of him. Mac was extremely distressed so I took him out and gave him a lot of loving reassurance. Now back with Alyson and friends at Gatwick (N) kennels where they all welcomed him back with such warmth.
Here is Mac travelling in the front of the car to my home keenly looking at the 'night world'

Met a close friend today. Lots of kisses and cuddles then off on our walk. I revelled in his accomplishments as a terrier. His keen little eyes; picking up a scent or two; frolicking in play mode in places;
his postures so 'Patti' Patterdale Anonymous fans be heard!
