Liver and white springers are the most beautiful creatures in the world (sorry, non-springer owners). I have one called Treacle, as well as a mad Brittany spaniel called Snuffy.

My first ever dog was a mixed breed - her mum was a Lassie collie and we have no idea what her dad was. She was very soppy, though.<br /><br />Sorry, have absolutely no idea about the book! What an intriguing premise, though. I'll ask over on my own blog, too, and I'll come back/nip over to yours if anyoen comes up with it.Kate Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07367918727779245526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-53126201133978498792009-08-26T07:23:57.143+01:002009-08-26T07:23:57.143+01:00Caroline!!

We've never taken Byron to the beach (though Ben and Sal used to love it. Mind you, Sal spied the lagoon at the farm and she was straight in there. Ben followed. Apparently it took DH ages to tempt them out again.)Kate Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07367918727779245526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-71587630756794191302009-08-26T07:21:18.592+01:002009-08-26T07:21:18.592+01:00Donna - had to google pics of your dog (not a bree...Donna - had to google pics of your dog (not a breed I'm familiar with). <br /><br />And, wow, I've just gone broody.

We have a Westie named Suki and a mixed-dog named Scruffy. <br /><br />I'm looking for a book and Katie Fforde said I could ask you to put it in the newsgroup. Here's what I remember of it:<br /><br />The father of the heroine freezes to death (on purpose), she's see's him going out to do it and he tells her to go back inside/leave, it could have been a flashback and I'm sure it's a chick lit book!<br /><br />I hope you can help!<br />Leah xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-46525526936014677292009-08-25T15:19:29.104+01:002009-08-25T15:19:29.104+01:00He's lovely :o) I have a couple of liver and ...He's lovely :o) I have a couple of liver and white ones - they're a great excuse to spend an hour on the beach every morning, which is fabulous thinking time.

I have a terrier of the Heinz 57 variety, though all he manages to do is lay in the room merrily passing wind and barking if anything moves within a five mile radius. Bless!<br />And my two gorgeous cats Eric & Polly. Polly used to sleep ion my printer - not surprisingly it gave up the ghost and Eric is huge and part human (or at least he thinks so) and I have many conversations with him in which he answers quite happily. He's also a bit dopey so can be found trussed up as a baby in my daughters pram, he doesn't really seem to care! He's also the only cat I know who purrs at the vets, he was so pleased to see the vet last time he nearly caused her to inject herself with his vaccine as he was rubbing his head up against her...<br />I love my office companions!!Lorixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06670131430773133958noreply@blogger.com
