Well this is my pooch, a labradoodle celebrating her 6th birthday tomorrow, on her arrival.



The mud bath.......



......which results in her infamous Shaun the Sheep impersonation



And enjoying the snow.

I wonder why this is. Sadly, they suffer because of the owners, but if brought up by responsible people, they make for lovely dogs.

They are great around other people no doubt. It's other animals seems the common issue.

Long dogs by the fire, where else when you're banned from the sofa

I did wonder whether my annoyance was born out of frustration that I am unable to find a suitably silly designer name for my mut. He's either a deerhound or a greyhound but is neither - bloody frustrating.

Not sure if this helps as it’s not exactly a designer name, but in the field, we’ve always called a crossbreed between two sighthounds a longdog.

Absolutely - most people look at you very strangely when you talk of longdogs though. People keep asking me if mine's a lurcher, which seem to be thought of as a breed rather than a generic mix of dog types. Gave up long ago telling people that a Lurcher was a cross. Seems to confuse folk.

Very few have heard the long dog expression. Very apt though. As you say, it still doesn't fit the designer name with an expensive tag though.

I worked terriers for years but these days I keep springers and, in comparison, the are a joy to be in the field with.

Do they live in the caravan or are they left in the field at night?

Most evenings it’s the local actually.

One of them seems to have found something very funny - what was the joke? Anything to do with a doodle or a poo?

Lovely! But, have they ever bought you a pint?

Gulp! The dog at the back is the spit of our dog that we recently lost after 10 years.

That’s Sheba our 7yr old rescue. A challenging bitch we took in at two and a half with a lot of baggage! Bless her she has been through a lot but has a stable and full life with us (and still has her moments! )

Our vet just called to let us know our 10 year old Romanian rescue, who we've had for 18 months, has been diagnosed with Lymphoma.

I'm an absolute mess. He's not been in our life for long but he's made such an impact and he really is the perfect dog - he's chilled out, good with other dogs and loves attention from everyone.

Our other dog absolutely adores him too, so I don't think she's going to cope very well without him being around.

What a rubbish way to start Christmas!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a biscuit put aside for me
For me
For me

This has brought tears to my eyes, as I adore dogs and cannot imagine how life would be without my almost 10 year old lab. Do try to keep going. Wonderful that you have taken on a rescue dog, and just so sad that there is need to rescue dogs from certain countries.
