Great to hear from you Wilbur, only thinking of you a few days ago!
I second what Indianna said – you are certainly keeping Seamus on his collie toes! Many thanks to Kathy for the agility equipment!
The slalom poles are a work in progress…oh yes indeed! Mac and Bonnie proved more enthusiastic at jumping than Keeley, who found her ball more interesting (as ever!). . Bonnie worked out it was easier to go around the jump than over. Unfortunately the camera missed the twins jumping over the pole together!VERDICT: agility is not as easy as it looks (and neither is trying to photograph it!) but the humans get great exercise trying to show how it’s done!

No pair better than Sindy and Fawn to show you the ropes, whilst patiently waiting for your forever home.Great to hear from you Dash but so sorry to hear about your pal MacDuff.
May he run free now, without any discomfort and knowing that you are keeping an eye on things for him at home.Well Mike, how goes it? I suspect you are under curfew today! I don’t think your foster Mum quite meant that when she said "I don’t think we are going to have him too long".
From collecting you from the pound, I have to say you are a cheeky, confident chap and have a definite sparkle in your eye. Very friendly (think you’d befriend anyone!) and would make the perfect companion! Good to see you don’t mind sharing your mattress either! Well, it’s been a while….sorry! Life is treating us very well (unless you ask Bonnie who reckons she is still being starved and is now well below her BMI…Barely Morsels Ingested
). We are allowed to walk off the lead more now (Scotties have a tendency to wander!), although Mac still gets a bit protective of his sisters and seemingly wants to attack anything larger than himself (especially yellow Labs and Retrievers!!). Then things get a bit confused and Mac and Bonnie attack one another – sometimes Keeley joins in because she thinks that’s what you do! Mac’s reputation now precedes him as he is spotted out on walks…”Oh, here comes the cross one!” or “It’s the Terrible Twins”! Humph!! Recently we won the category of “The Odd Couple” in a dog show and have a medal and certificate to prove it (still not quite sure if this was a compliment…!?). The trio have discovered that kitchen waste destined for the compost heap, notably egg shells, are not digestible!
On other garden matters, Bonnie loves tidying up after the birdies and eating the dropped seed however she says she needs to floss more regularly as a result. She has rather a fascination with birds and recently misunderstood what "tweeting" meant…Madam caught a fledgling sparrow and despite veterinary intervention, sadly it didn’t survive. Unfortunately, having bird-slaughter on her conscience doesn’t seem to have made much difference to her "twittering" fascination! Keeley and Mac love chasing around the garden and Mac hides and Keeley has to find him – very amusing to watch (but not so amusing for the plants along the way!).
They also take it in turns waiting to look out the window, whilst sitting on the computer desk. So, all in all, life for these three continues as ever (whilst their human slaves continue with the counselling ).IMG_3068.JPGIMG_3045.JPGIMG_3060.JPG
