Dogs:

We now have five dogs - which makes us officially mad!   They are quite a handful but we love them all the same (sometimes)!  I would like to think that we provide a good home for our dogs with lots of fun things to do from chasing chickens to playing ball.  We live in such a great place there are always things for them to do, running on the moors, swimming in the sea.  They seem happy and that is the important thing.

All of our dogs are rescues from one place or another.  We started off with just two collies and in the last five years have either permanently re-homed or fostered numerous dogs.

Collies are very energetic dogs and need plenty of mental stimulation.  We do canine agility with most of our dogs, but we also try them out to see whether they will work livestock.  it can be incredibly rewarding to take on a delinquent rescue and bring it round.  They can be challenging but it is a wonderful experience.

Cuina:

Sadly we lost our old lady, Cuina in October 2006.  Cuina came from Ireland and was a cantankerous old bag, but we loved her.  She was 14 years old and had been suffering badly with arthritis and a wound which would not heal.  It was with a heavy heart that we made the decision to have her PTS.  She taught us a great deal about border collies.
