We have been looking after a dog over the last few days.
It was a last minute thing after the owner was hospitalised.

What a pleasure it has been to have this lad. We have been walking with him
and have had so much real 'time' together, we have even been out in the
countryside looking in ponds etc. (we never do that these days)

We have had NO cats in the garden fouling the freshly dug soil, that is
what I meant to say first.

It's going to be a wrench letting him go home.

Lots of lovely dogs looking for new homes if you don't fancy the puppy
stage, dogs are not always an asset in the garden but we would never be
without one
