And then there were five...

Fi's pups have started leaving home. Happy to see them on the way to their new lives but at the same time sad to see them go, they've been a lovely litter and I've really enjoyed having them. The little black tri girl 'Ziggy' was the first to leave on Saturday.
Bryning Unbelieveable
Her new owner Wendy flew over from Portugal on Friday and stayed overnight with us, we spent a lovely evening chatting dogs and Saturday morning she helped me get some stacked photos of the whole litter. Now, I must confess, my pups have usually been stacked and photographed 3 or 4 times before they leave so they are old pro's by the time they reach 7/8 weeks; I can't say they same for this lot! Some were more willing than others as you can see in the resulting pics. Ziggy is destined for obedience and agility in her new home in Portugal so good luck to Wendy with her.

Next pup to leave was squiffy faced sable boy, also now called Ziggy!

Bryning Dare to Believe
Vicky and Tom came up on Saturday afternoon to meet the pups and Fi and took him home to Shrewsbury. Ziggy is also destined for agility, good luck Vicky!

Vicky will be back to see us again in a couple of weeks when they come to collect Jeep (classic sable boy) as they are taking him to Heathrow to send out to Dallas, USA

Bryning Believe it or Not
Jeep will be the first Bryning pup to set paw in the US, he is destined for flyball and agility and I wish Susan every possible luck with him.

Ossy, the smaller black tri boy, was the next to leave yesterday morning, he has gone to live fairly locally to here in Knott End so I hope we get to see plenty of him; Os is also destined for agility, good luck with him Helen!
Bryning Would you Believe
So that leaves us with five here still, the big flashy black tri boy (as yet un-named) will be coming over to Drax with us on Friday where he will going to his new home in West Yorkshire. He will be doing a bit of obedience and flyball and (hopefully) showing too, he is a really lovely boy

Dino (dark faced black tri boy) will be with us for another month and will be coming over to Belgium with us when we go to the EFC's where he will stay with his new owner, my good friend, Wendy Eeckeloo at Hof Diabolo Border Collies.

Bryning Beyond Belief

So...that just leaves Monkee and Mouse...

Bryning I'mABeliever

Bryning Believe In Me
For the time being they are both staying here...they will NOT both be staying long term and actually neither may end up staying but at the moment I don't want to let Mouse go and my mum doesn't want to let Monkee go!! We'll just wait and see ;)

Um...yeah. Don't blame you. Monkey and Mouse are GORGEOUS!!! Start Agility again with the rascal this week, and the week after next we're going to try our hand at Rally-O. By the end of it I hope he might actually start listening to me!! LOL. He is a good dog, just full of energy and can be a bit stubborn! Caught him chasing a bee this morning - yipes! Still won't make friends with Michelle!
