Hey!
Yesterday afternoon, Sian took Flash and me up to a little cottage at the top of Bethesda, to meet Charlie who's gorgeous
Springer spaniel - I think he said he's from Essex, and he was quite shy, not surprising when you consider he had me and Flash - who got a bit silly - all wide eyed! at him. Charlie was so soft and sweet, I thought I could almost fall for him if - he had this cool den in the corner of the room, and he had something called a Spaniel Bag - this dries you and cleans you by the time you get home - pleeeease get me one mum - you know it would be worth having - soooo useful!
The reason we went up there was for Sian and Bonny to meet up - Bonny's the new President of the British Veterinary Nurse Association www.bvna.org.uk and she has to choose a charity for the organisation to support for the year that she's president. Last year, they supported the Animal Cancer Trust www.animalcancertrust.org.uk. Bonny wanted to choose a charity for working dogs who help people - and that's exactly what we do! Because Robin is from Bangor originally, she wanted to do something here in North Wales - so she's chosen SARDA Wales as her charity of the year - yippee!!!
They all got very excited about it - well, as much as mum could with her cough still going on! - someone wants to do a wing walk for SARDA Wales - I wasn't sure what that was, but Sian said it was where someone stands on the wing of a plane while it's flying - still not sure I understand, but sounds cool - I think I'll go and have my photo taken with the lady who's going to do it! Maybe dressed up in a Snoopy outfit? 
How cool would that be ....
Someone else wants to do a parachute jump - not sure I fancy that, but I guess that anything that's taking place more north than south we could manage to get to to support! There are loads of other SARDA dogs who might be able to go as well.
We all went out for a walk on the hills to get some photos of Sian and Bonny and us hounds done in the wind and the rain - I'm afraid I wasn't going to stop long for a photo - I find the best way to deal with rain, and avoid getting wet is simple - RUN FAST! I thought I was a hooligan in water - Charlie's just mad!!! He found a muddy puddle, which he managed to soak up into his coat! We found a dead ram - which might explain why I was sick last night - hmmm 

I think i need to get photos of some of the other SARDA dogs on here, just for you to get a look. I'm obviously the cutest, but some of the others are cute - Spin's got the HUGEST ears you ever saw, Max can smile, showing his teeth -
and he's really not trying to be scary! Some of the collies are a bit scary - not to humans, because they're really good at finding lost humans, but to me, who's only a ickle pup who's only bossy in my own house, they're scary! Never tried to bite me, but they do tell me off when they see me! Probably cos I'm just too fast and whizzy for them and they get cross with me!
