Walked Winnie today as I couldn't help but notice her in the new kennel block Smile

She is always so pleased to see you. Had lots of cuddles at the cafe which she really enjoys. She would love to meet all the people passing - believes everyone could be her friend. She needs so much more stimulation to keep her mind and body busy. Hopefully now it is quieter at the kennels she will get out a couple of times a week.

Winnie really didn't want the halti on today and as she was my last walk having already covered 5 miles with other dogs I gave in and used the harness.
On the walk she was still really eager to walk at her pace again, she loves the grass banks and spends most of the walk trotting along in the longer grass if she can.
At the halfway point we sat down and made a fuss of eachother, although she still doesn't really take on much water.
A pleasant walk in the sunshine with a lovely lady. Very Happy

Sue & I took Winnie out this morning, the sun was out and Winnie was pleading to go out so we obliged.
I got the halti on her really quickly today which was a real suprise, on the walk she was pulling in protest against the halti to start with but after a few minutes she gave in and was fine.
On the walk she was perfect, trotting along nicely. At the halfway point we had a fuss but still very little water taken on.
A lovely walk in the autumn sunshine with a lovely girl Very Happy

I took Winnie out last today, we had a real battle of wits to get the halti on but I persevered and it paid dividends as she is perfect once out and about on a halti.
She trotted along next to me with no pulling, she decided she would 'wait' but not 'sit' on command today when any traffic approached. She is not the little dynamo you see in the kennels, once away from that enviroment she changes into an adorable little dog who just wants some attention, at the halfway point today she was like a puppy, rolling over, demanding tummy rubs.
A lovely way to end the end the day Very Happy

I took Winnie out yesterday as she was demanding to go out, she was a little suprised to see Levi waiting for her outside.
Initially she jumped up at Levi, but not in an aggressive manner, more playful. After a couple of minutes walking together they were brilliant, bumping into eachother and constantly checking eachother out.
At the halfway point we had a big fussing session, and she actually took water on which was unusual.
The walk back was very good as well, Winnie seemed to find a new boyfriend, she didn't want to leave his side, when we got back to the kennels, Cassie was just going to the Cafe and Alison and Levi went with her, Winnie was most indignant that her 'new fella' went off with another woman and whined a little before trotting back inside.

Winnie moved home yesterday into Gatwick (S) kennels she was very excited..and as she travelled next to me on Julie's lap I was astonished how beautiful this dog is..

She now has a concrete kennel which will be warmer for the winter with a much bigger kennel area with open hatch at all times. Lets hope she wont be with us for long and will transfer to her families centrally heated house soooon!

Winnie is looking a little thin but hopefully she will soon put the weight back on. She does burn so much energy though Laughing

She is a little bundle of fun.
She is cheeky and keen on new adventures. As she is nice and small, the fact that she could pull for England without her halti is more comical than a real concern Very Happy

Next time I will remember the figure of 8 halti and she will walk so much better. Winnie's love of life is infectious - if you need cheering up then she is your girl.

Spinnie Winnie..bless her heart she is sharing a kennel next to Nina and they have been having words..just chitter chatter but got them both worked up...Winnie rushed out of kennels..jet propelled so we ran and when I stopped she stopped when I walked she walked. Happy to be out of the kennel and enjoying a warm autumn afternoon. Back in the paddock she ran around like bullet. She settled back in her kennel with a huge Jumbo bone.. Laughing

Wonderful to see little Winnie again today and take her for a new walk in South Gatwick. She's lost weight and looked tiny but has lost none of her energy or love of being out and about and was eager to get going.

Stopping for lunch with Alison and Kai at the pub she made the mistake of jumping up and leaning on Kai's neck, which he didn't like! Then she happily settled down around Tom's legs for lots of cuddles and a few chips earned for such good behaviour.
