Sun, 18 Jan 2009 07:13:43 -0500

This slide -show encapsulates my lifetime spent with dogs, starting with a picture of my first dog, Lassie, bought when I was 12 years old. It features some of the dogs I have owned (some home- bred) over the last 50 years. My son, Leigh, grew up surrounded by dogs and the production also provides a snapshot of his life from 7 years (pictured with Turk, a Border Terrier puppy) to 35 years (pictured with Pixie on Christmas Day 2008).

A New Life for Wolfie (Pomeranian)

Fri, 14 Nov 2008 05:12:37 -0500

This slide show records Wolfie's remarkable re-socialisation from the start of his training in October 2007 when he was 4yrs of age, up to the present. When he was a puppy of between 10 and 11 weeks old, Wolfie, who was very hyperactive, fell into a Hypoglycaemic coma which left him with brain damage. Although always happy at home, he resented going out and feared strangers, even to the point of not wanting to pass anyone at close quarters. When people visited our home, he was wary at first, then he would begin to accept them. However, should they have been out of his sight for 10 minutes or more, he usually failed to recognise them when they reappeared. A friend who has had experience with problem dogs suggested that I take him to an obedience class where he would learn by repetition, which might boost his confidence by helping to compensate for the short term memory loss which was making him feel so insecure. He started at the Bridgend & District Canine Assoc. Kennel Club Good Citizens' Training Classes Classes on 3rd October 2007. The instructors, Wendy and Kath, were fully aware of his problems and were very patient with him, allowing him to become acclimatised in his own time. The results have been not far short of amazing. Wolfie passed his Bronze Test in December. He now loves going out and about, no longer fears strangers, and likes amusing children, but prefers to approach everyone in his own time. On 30th July he passed his Silver GC Test, which is particularly challenging for a dog with Wolfie's history. He is a brave little soul and it is so rewarding to see how his life has been transformed, and to have been part of the process.
