In between sneezing and coughing over everyone and everything yesterday, my mistress heard from three of the puppies. Beija rang to say she was doing fine, but wasn\u2019t really enjoying the time she has to spend in a crate. She loves being around her humans and simply hates when she has to be apart. She thinks that the big dog, Molly, is great but fears there are times that Molly may not be having the same thoughts about her. Basil is doing very well and thoroughly enjoying learning all sorts of things. He\u2019s looking forward to his final injection this week and being able to go out into the real world. He\u2019s going to visit Tucker next weekend so he\u2019s very excited about seeing his brother. Then Tucker rang too and said he\u2019s finding the big wide world to be a very exciting place. He doesn\u2019t like to stay still for too long and does find he gets himself a bit over excited at times. That\u2019s puppies for you. They are all getting bigger and some of them are already nearly 8kg. Hopefully we\u2019ll see some of them when we have our next Fun Day, which is in March. We\u2019ve planned it for the day that is the 100th<\/sup> anniversary of the birth of the first of our breed ever to be registered officially in Switzerland.  It should be very exciting to meet up again.<\/p>\n

The snow went almost as quickly as it came and has been replaced by more wet stuff. At least the forecast for this week is for warmer weather. Here\u2019s an irony for you. My Mistress is hoping it will be nice and warm as she doesn\u2019t fancy trying out her new snow chains in the cold! I hate to point out to her that when she really needs to use them it will inevitably be cold \u2013 otherwise they\u2019d be sun chains rather than snow chains!<\/p>\n
