We had a lovely afternoon at Aunty Debbie's yesterday. It was great to see everyone and especially Duggie who was looking very bouncy after being poorly a couple of weeks ago.
I had a great bounce around and played with Fergus and Dougal and then later had a quick game of chase with Max around the garden. Max and I didn't play for long as he was going training later - he and Fergus start their winter work in a couple of weeks, so they are 'in preparation'.
Sadly this morning we have had to cancel our planned meeting with some old and new friends at Clumber Park next week. The nice people at the Animal Health Trust have reported that some cases of the seasonal illness that Fergus had last September have been seen in our area again, so Sandra has decided it's safer not to go up to Clumber for a while which is a real shame because we love it there. She may take us for some road walks there over the next few weeks and once the cold weather comes it will be safe to go back into the fields and woods, but for now it looks like we will stay around the village for our walks. That's fine as we have some great fields to explore around here and we may even go for some walks along the river too.
