Dusty is well and truly
besotted with Scout. They never stop playing and we have to separate them at
times just so they can both get some rest.
Dusty had his 6 monthly check
up at the vet’s and he’s put on two kilos and now weighs 16.5 kilos which is a
far more respectable weight. That’s a lot of weight to put on, but he’s always
been at the very low end of low and as skinny as a rake. Lucy said he was “perfect”
and that some of the increase could be down to muscle, but she certainly wasn’t
worried. Phew.
Last year I changed him to a
different brand of dog food. The one I had used for my dogs for nearly 20 years
just didn’t seem to suit him at all and we couldn’t get him to gain weight. I
looked into it and checked on various forums and a name that kept coming up as
being a good quality food was Skinner’s Field and Trial.
I’ve got him on their Duck
and rice variety for dogs with sensitivities – and it suits him very well. He
looks sturdier. And it’s half the price of the other food which is a bonus.
Scout has started training
classes. She seems to grow before your eyes and is almost as tall as Dusty now.
It’s difficult to get a photo of them standing together because when we’re at
home, they’re normally rolling around the floor snorting and snuffling!

Did you see Spring? It lasted
all of two days and now we seem to be back in Autumn! It’s all topsy-turvy.
