Dreaming of the Walk!

Well Hello all,

I cant believe its the 26th already lol, its getting very exciting, the house is full of maps and paper stuck to everything and anything, it might sound and look a little chaotic but i believe everything is under control and in hand.

As we have been planning and organising for a while now, the thought and expectations have reached a point that i feel are unbeatable, although i would imagine the night of the 2nd March will be incredible. We are all dreaming of parts of the walk, no nightmares as yet! :).

Campsites and press releases are the aim of the game right now, lets see how many people we can get supporting us and maybe even walking with us.

The dogs training is on hold right now, as Mac is still unwell and little Milo has a poorly paw...:(. These mutts just cant hack the solid training, being done by Camo Stig and mummy, too much of the good life me thinks!! Will keep you up to date with the progress.

For now its good bye from me and well good bye from the other lot.

Happy New Year!

A very happy New Year to anyone reading this!

I'm back on the blog at last - moved house, got swine flu and then had to wait ages for my internet connection, so before I knew it Charlie was home from Uni and Christmas was upon us.

Just been out for a walk with Milo and Mac. Treacle's arthritis is a bit iffy at the moment so she stayed at home. It had been snowing earlier, in mini snowballs, so our walk was a bit crunchy in places, sloshy in others and slippy everywhere. Treacle has started on some new supplements and also some pain-killer/anti-inflammatory too and I think it's beginning to have some effect.

Christmas was great. Bit quiet at times with just Charlie and I for Christmas day but what we lacked in people we made up for in dogs - Milo, Treacle and Mac were joined by my mothers dogs, Tara and Will from 23rd to 30th, and then on Boxing Day my son Alex and his girlfriend came with their 12 month old Bassett Hound, Pumpkin. Six mutts in this little house was a bit over the top but fun all the same.

Starting to work seriously on publicity for the walk now Christmas is over - drafting letters to local papers to start with and also wrote a letter to Max Clifford to ask for some advice. I figured that when it comes to publicity he's about as good as it gets so he'll know how we should go about it all. Just hope he has time to answer and point us in the right direction. The start date is looming very close now - very exciting and a bit scary too!

Time to think about feeding the dogs and then feeding us humans too.

Bye for now,

Susan

Winter Walks :)

Its getting chilly now, so we have pulled out the warm hats, cosy socks and gloves and are powering on with the training. Nothing can beat an evening on the beach all wrapped with a couple of dogs, mummy has been telling me all about it, she's having a lovely time.

Nothing to important to report, fund raising is steady but will be really kicking off over and after Christmas.

Both mummy and I are busy busy busy other than the walk organisation, I have my uni course, which isn't leaving me with much energy lol. Mummy has her uni and the community shop in Cemaes bay, which she does a lot for.

The dogs are slowing getting

fit, Milo is enjoying his walks meeting new friends, i think if he new what was a head of him, all of the new people, he would be a little more excited about the training! Mac's training is on hold as he has been a little unwell, waiting for test results to come back from the vets, but right now he is on sofa and garden rest. As for Treacle well, she is sleeping, wagging her tail when she thinks there's food or someone to talk too and sleeping, all that she needs to do, she will be with me for the walk. She has got joints that get too sore if she walks for long periods. She is a Pets As Therapy dog who is just about to turn 10, so doesn't being on the side lines for the younger pair as long as she gets plenty of cuddles :) :)

Have a Lovely Weekend, Mummy shall be the next to update,
