Settling in nicely.
Pepper has been with us almost three glorious weeks now and she’s the calmest, best behaved puppy one could ask for. Easy to train, thanks to her desire to please and motivated by food (kibble as treats!) and we’ve reliably gotten her to now stay in place on a training mat so we can eat… Continue reading

Pepper 1, Pepper 2.
A couple of months ago, Pepper (1) started exhibiting some health issues around balance and general cognitive functions – affected a permanent head tilt and became clumsier than her usual self. Issues jumping onto the sofa for a cuddle, getting in the car, staggering when walking, etc. We consulted with the vet and they did… Continue reading
