We thought we would do an update as she has been with us for a few weeks now....... Everybody is in love with her, our friends and family love to come round and see her, think probably more than us! She has destroyed most of her toys, it is lovely to see her so happy and running around playing, though the grass in the garden is going bald, but im sure it will recover!! We decided to re-name her Josie sort of as a fresh start to her moving in with us, and she responds very well (selectively though ) Josie loves her very own white sofa in the dinning room, she curls up there most of the time sleeping and munching her toys. She also loves to sit in on Jon's guitar lessons, thinks she loves the kids!! She will be a rock star soon ;D We have had a few accidents here and there but luckily only pee's so its not so bad, she is better now she has settled. Maddy and her are also starting to become pals and they love running together. Josie is definitely part of the family is the centre of attention getting cuddles every 15 minutes and several compliments a day and we wouldnt have it any other way ;D ;D ;D Kirsten

Many thanks for the update Kirsten - 'tis good to know that the lovely Josie is still working her magic on all & sundry.
Any chance of a recent pic or three of the lass for us to drool over? it is lovely to see her so happy and running around playing, though the grass in the garden is going bald, but im sure it will recover!! Speaking from many years experience with Lurchered gardens, if I were you I wouldn't hold my breath! ;D ;D ;D

Thank you for that lovely update Kirsten. She is such a beautiful serene hound. Cuddles and love every fifteen minutes is taking it a bit far. Cut it down to every half an hour, for your own sake. ;D

Hi Guys! Glad to see the update and to learn that the 'you will get into 'real' music' lesson has finally sunk in. I can only assume that she prefers guitar over bass. Big hugs to you all. Mark

This is true, maybe she will get a bass guitar for Christmas! She will probably eat it though if the duck toy is anything to go by!! ;D

I know its probably obvious and i'm being silly but I cant work it out You're not being silly and it isn't obvious until you've done it Have a look at mimsmum.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1505 and if that still doesn't do it for you e-mail them to me and I'll put them up for you. I've pm'd you our e-mail addy just in case.

No sadly Archie had to be re-homed as he nearly got swiped by Josie, its was so close!! We couldnt let him run round the lounge and garden like he used to and thought it wasnt fair for him to stay in his hutch day and night. He went to a guinea pig shop and lives in reception with a new friend! So it worked out better for him anyway Maddy and her are almost friends though, Maddy's jealousy isn't so bad and they sit together now so thats great, but give Josie a cuddle and not Maddy and she gives you the evil eye!!!

Hello there! Just thought I would share these pictures of Josie. After 8 months of having her, she is well and truly part of the family and spoilt rotten. She is now pals with Maddy, my mum and dads saluki lurcher, this has taken a bit of time but they follow each other around now. The only problem is you have to give them both the same attention and same amount of cuddles or one of them gives a jealousy glare! She has lots of pals on her walks and a boyfriend called Jake (a big boxer) she also has another boyfriend called George in another town, she nibbles on their ears- two timer hehe! We couldn't be more happy with her, her character is really coming out and we have noticed she looks to Maddy and copies! Anyway hope these photos upload ok! Kirsten, Jon and Josie xxx <a href="http://s827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/?action=view¤t=22243_236604482212_503227212_380125.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/22243_236604482212_503227212_380125.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>[/img] <a href="http://s827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/?action=view¤t=22243_236604552212_503227212_380126.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/22243_236604552212_503227212_380126.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>[/img] <a href="http://s827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/?action=view¤t=22243_236606387212_503227212_380126.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/22243_236606387212_503227212_380126.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>[/img] <a href="http://s827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/?action=view¤t=22243_236604467212_503227212_380125.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/22243_236604467212_503227212_380125.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>[/img] <a href="http://s827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/?action=view¤t=7832_135444832212_503227212_3126346.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i827.photobucket.com/albums/zz197/kirstenh_bucket/7832_135444832212_503227212_3126346.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>[/img]

What a lovely surprise to come on line and see your update. :)Sadly, the photos haven't uploaded properly but the words say enough. I can't tell you how lovely it is to know that you are all so happy ;D We knew from the moment we set eyes on her that she was a very special little lady and that she deserved a very special couple to call her own We really would love to come and have a walk (and a pint) sometime if that's OK with you guys. PS. Do you want another one - we've got a gorgeous boy in at the mo' who would be a lovely match to Josie

DOH! Im terrible at this computer stuff! A pint and walk sound great! I would love another, I keep looking, Cai is gorgeous too but at the moment we can only have one, I have gone back to uni to finish me degree, plus I dont think Maddy will let another dog into the family, nor Josie they are both so jealous, Josie even turns her back on you to face the wall if Maddy has got more cuddles than her- haha! Let us know when you are free for a drink and walk Kirsten xx
