Long Weekends and Clean Dogs

Baloo has improved significantly over the past two days and was doing well enough to have a bath today... If he had known what was in store for him, he would probably have limped a little bit longer! He dried off in the sun, carrying his ball around in his mouth and looking all pleased with himself:)

He'll be 8 months old next week and weighs in at 23kg (only 1,5 kg shy of Paddington's weight). He's maturing into a really beautiful boy and looks fantastic when he's clean - even if it doesn't last for more than a day.

We took a break from formal training this weekend and will be starting the next course on 3 October. We're still training the boys every night at home and they're enjoying it as much as we are! It's been a fabulous long weekend, with hot Summer days and cool nights and nothing much to do... May the week ahead be a blessed one for all of you:)
