Meet the dogs

For those who have not met our dogs, here is a brief introduction. Lottie is a 12 year old golden cocker spaniel whom I bred myself in 1996. She is very cuddly and lovable but tends to bark a bit more now as she has cataracts and so cannot see too well. She also feigns selective deafness when there is something more interesting to investigate.

Jasper is almost five years old, a blue roan cocker spaniel who can run like the wind, but also likes to cuddle his favourite toy, an old teddy bear called smudge.

Hamish a West Highland white terrier, came to live with us two years ago when my Dad died. He is thirteen years old and was originally my mum's.

They all get along well and like nothing better than a good run round the fields during our spare time.
