Catch Up !!

Oh well as usual its been hectic here over the last couple of months and I haven't 'blogged' for ages so here it goes with a quick update :o)

Ellie and I along with Italia and Cenzo went on a road trip to Cornwall to join lots of other Spinone owners for a fun filled camping weekend - sadly it rained most of the time but we still had a laugh and the dogs got to go out on some good runs.  We met Karen (from Wales remember) who brought Freya (Spinone) and Anouk (Barbet).  It was the first time I put up my new super duper pump up tent and surprisingly it went up without too much trouble but I have to admit we had some help from two fellow campers - thanks a million guys :o)

Morning all :o)

Im not getting up yet :o)

The campsite

The tent half up

Very sadly while we were away our close friend George (he's been talked about before on here) was knocked off his motor cycle by 2 young lads and was seriously hurt - to cut a very long story short the outcome of this is that he had to have his leg amputated just below the knee and has now started the long process of rehabilitation.  Thankfully he's doing amazing well and its all because of the incredibly positive attitude he has.  At one stage just before his amputation his wife Lynne thought he could do with a bit of a boost so we took Angel (remember Uncle George is her most favourite person in the world) into Salisbury Hospital for a surprise visit :o)  Angels usual trick when she sees him is to jump up onto his lap and gently holds his nose but she was soooo gentle with him when she saw him and just sat by his side gazing at him - it was a lovely moment and theres was several 'lumps in the throat'.

Theres nothing like Spinone cuddles to cheer you up :o)
