Don’t let her Ladyship hear you calling her frosty face – good grief, you will be outside living in a puddle 
Hasn’t crossed my mind to look at the Tellington Touch until now but I will investigate anything in and around Edinburgh. Nothing like a recommendation, especially if it has been applied with success. Thanks for the advice
.Jet is currently lying asleep on her bean bag surrounded by a tennis ball, monkey toy, ragger that is slowly being unwound as she plays with it. Will stop playing if anyone tries to join in, enjoys her walks but not too keen on rain. Coat is changing, much softer and although the hair on her shoulders and thighs is still very thin it seems to be coming through a bit now. Tail isn’t so ‘ratty looking’ and she still has the most strange eyes I have ever seen on any dog. When she relaxes/gets sleepy her eyes are almost normal. When she is excited and her eyes are open wide there is a lot of white to be seen and it makes her took a bit loopy
Eats like a horse and has put on a good deal of weight so is now on normal rations. She will now roll over to have her stomach rubbed but still not too keen on being brushed. Doesn’t do anything bad, just lies down so I can only brush one side at a time Lets me check her ears, paws, eyes and teeth. Still not too happy to have her tail touched, I know dogs’ tails are sensitive and it will take time but I don’t think that is something that she will ever enjoy. Loves the clicker and gets very carried away with herself when we are trying to do heel work. She thinks she has to walk to heel almost in front of me so she can whip round quickly to do a lovely sit right in front of me! She will sit to the side of me but her first choice is in front. We are trying to sort that out. She is a very quick learner but does try to decided what I want her to do and then that is what she does, we don’t often have the same idea at the same time 
. She is great in the car, doesn’t really bark even when the other two explode into a barking frenzy 
All in all she is a very sweet, kind dog and there is always much debate as to her breeding. Most recently, a couple who own a Collie thought she was pure Collie (I continue to think there is Whippet as well as a lot of Collie but goodness knows and where did she got her cute little ears from 
We have just woken up now so time to go out to the garden, oh no, we are lying down again, all tucked in 
It’s a tough old life, well, probably was but isn’t now I will let you know when I get one and report on the reaction of the small, black, digging, hunting machine that is Nellie

Well, who is a gorgeous little munchkin? 
What a striking-looking dog. He will turn many heads, should be in films
