Happy Birthday Boris

Happy 6th Birthday to my Beautiful Boris

When we got you I'd forgotten just how much hard work puppies were!

Boy did you re educate me very quickly indeed Boris

With the digging up of my beautiful garden, the almost constant removal of slugs and stones from your mouth, those hundreds of trips outside every hour on the hour day and night to get you to potty, it took you months to get the hang of potty training didn't it Boris.

Where did all that poop come from in one so small?

I was exhausted after only one week, had I made a mistake in getting you Boris, I was starting to think so, I was struggling badly!

A Trip to the Vets

I had to go to the vets this afternoon as mum has been worrying about me, thinking I'm losing weight, that I'm not well and that I need a blood test as I seem unhappy sometimes

Don't panic I'm perfectly fine, but more about that later

We waited outside because that's the rules now because of Covid19, of course me being me didn't want to wait, so I jumped into Paws Up on the window sill and started tap tapping away on the window with my paw **it's a trick mum taught me for when I've finished my ablutions in the garden**

Yes We're Back

Welcome to our new and updated blog, I'm so sorry it's been left so long since our last posting, so much has happened and I can't wait to tell you all about it.

First let me introduce you to Eko, like me he's a Working Cocker and he's the crazy part of our new blog name, mum is convinced he's Badger Boo reincarnated

Being Disabled during Lockdown

As a disabled person with an autoimmune disease I can't walk very far to get to somewhere isolated to exercise Boris my assistance dog, driving for five minutes to the nearest common to allow Boris to get out of the house for some downtime and too switch off from working is an essential trip out, both for his wellbeing and mine

I can't have a dog walker due to the high risks and myself being in self isolation, now that all the car parks have been closed onto the commons Boris can't have that one trip out a day we're allowed for his exercise so that he can have the time to switch off, sniff and run that is far enough away from people to enable me keep myself safe from Covid19, the local field is an unsafe option as everybody else is walking their dogs there

Authors Apology

It's been 8 months since I wrote my last post for Boris here and promising you all I would return to posting. The reality is I'm still struggling to return, the memories of Badger Boo every time I open this blog are too much to bear.

I hope you can all understand why I've decided to stop posting on this blog for now. I won't close it down as it contains so many wonderful memories and friends.
