Well, Flash is doing really well! She went in to be spayed on Wednesday and is just home from the vets after a check up and her wound is healing really well. All the staff at the vets love her!
She is currently out in the garden soaking up the sun. We need to take it handy on the exercise for now but after the weekend we can start going for walks again.
We made a break through today with the car, Flash is now happy to get in and out herself which is fantastic!Every day is a voyage of discovery for Flash and today was no different! We all went up to Three Rock for a walk in this glorious sunshine and Flash had a great time running around and saying hello to all she met and has quite a fan club now!
Flash is now brilliant in the car and sits quietly looking out the window. I think she knows that when she gets into the car, she always ends up some where really fun! She can now also sit on command and her recall is coming along nicely Im really proud of her!Below are some pictures from todays adventures

[/url:23qeqc0o”>Thanks smellysocks! Yeah she is doing really well
She came out of the pound a bit skinny but with good food she is slowly putting the weight back on and her coat is getting really shiny!
Today we went to visit my Mum down in the Wickla Hills so we all pilled into my little Polo and headed off this morning. Flash was really hesitant getting into the car but was fine after a little while, she just sat and looked out the window. We going to start getting her used to getting into the car so she can see that its nothing to be scared of.
Once we got to Mum’s Flash couldnt believe the space she had to run around! She had the time of her life jumping in and out of the ditches and smelling new and interesting smells! We then took all the dogs out for a little walk where Flash met some cows and a horse.
Flash is truly zonked now after all of todays excitment!

Well Flash is doing really well! She slept all through last night until about 6am this morning when she decided we had all had enough sleep and it was time to get up. She came in and proceeded to lick our faces until we gave in and got up!
She is getting along really well with our two and they spent most of yesterday playing in the garden
Flash hasnt had an accident in the house which is brilliant and she seems to be learning from our dogs as well.
She is a very active dog so I think a really active family, who have experience owning big dogs would suit her the best. Ladles is right, a house with small kids will not work as she does jump up (we are working on this) and does enjoy her rough and tumble playing.
She is a fabulous girl! She has massive potential and who ever is lucky enough to adopt her will have the best fun with her! Flash is home!!
WOW this girl is truly amazing! She has the most adorable face and the most loveable personality. Before putting her into the car this morning, I took her for a little stroll around the field. She didn’t pull on the lead and didnt rush to meet Hippy when he came to over to say hello. She was really mannerly which is brilliant. She was a little stressed in the car and kept licking the side of my face which was cute but err…not when Im trying to drive! She will get used to the car as we take the dogs everywhere with us so she will be fine after a few journeys.
She was thrilled to meet our dogs and spent the first hour running like mad with them around the garden. I guess she just has alot of pent up energy but it is brilliant to see them getting along so well.
We have been out in the garden most of the day and she is happy to potter about and get to know her new surroundings.
She is very careful in the house and is aware of her size (unlike our GSD who thinks she is the same size as a JRT) she doesnt beg for food or anything like that.
I just cant believe that this little lady ended up in the pound…its just baffeling! Anyway , Im so delighted I could take her home! She is safe and warm now and will be given the love and attention (and bath)she deserves!I cant believe this lady is still in the pound! look at the face!
We already have 2 big dogs (Pointer & GSD) and a small car, so I’m just wondering how big this girlie is? Is she typical Lab size or smaller?I met Daryl/Rocky yesterday and he really is such a fab looking dog. He has the most striking coat I have ever seen on a Springer. He was really friendly towards Faith and I. What a great little doggie
Yep, theres definitely cheekiness in this little guy! I’ve just rescued Gary’s birthday cake from being eaten! LOL! He didnt really get any thank god!
Boomer Bobby came home with me yesterday evening. Poor little guy had been in the vets over the weekend but is doing so well now. When I met him first he dropped to the ground and just wasnt interested in saying hello
but once I got him home and he had met our 2 (Monty & Kula) and our other foster Faith (Staffie) he seemed to come out of his shell and relax a little.
He ate all of his dinner and his breakfast this morning as well. He latched quite quickly onto us and adores cuddles and kisses. Boomer Bobby had great fun with the others in the garden this morning and chased the ball around for a little bit.
He has the most curious expression on his face and there is definitely a little cheekiness in there!
