We now have 8 swans that visit each day - these guys aren't silly they know where the food is. The dogs are very good with though although Benjamin does try to play with them and just doesn't understand why they flap and hiss at him?? - the doughnut!!

Holly celebrates her 4th birthday on 3rd March - Happy Birthday my chocy baby.
Jessica takes up her true profession - retrieving. Mark takes her out shooting and her first time proves VERY successful. My clever girl bought 5 pigeon back. 1 was still alive which she bought back with no marks - proving a labrador really is soft mouthed. I am absoluteley delighted with this little lady - a real star!!
We take the gang for a long weekend to Great Yarmouth. They had free run of the whole beach as the weather wasn't too good and we were probably the only people mad enough to go to the seaside in March!! Like the waterbabies they are they all went straight for the water.
We went to Crufts but for a change this year we went to Hound day. Lovely day out as always with lots of goodies for the gang.
April 2008
Benjamin celebrates his 5th birthday on the same day as Mark!! Happy birthday to the most important blokes in my life.

We have been back home now for 6 months and the dogs have really settled into their new life. We are now looking forward to the nice weather so we can really enjoy our new home.
Diane has managed to get some photos of Gem (Shoopi's Little Gem) and Bonnnie (Shoopi's Lady Muck) sat together. Don't they look great? We are all very, very proud of the beautiful dogs which we have bred. Thanks soooooo much Diane and look forward to seeing you all in the summer.

The dogs had to go and stay in the kennels for a week whilst me and Mark took a well deserved break. They went bonkers when we came back and have been totally spoilt since!
We finally got to visit Ben (shoopi Sargent Soot), Bonnie (Shoopi Lady Muck) and Gem (Shoopi Little Gem). These guys are all doing VERY well in their homes and I am delighted. Jess came along to see her babies but was more interested in the treats. Thank you to everyone for making us SO welcome!
