Here's Archie in the snow on Thursday 2nd and Saturday 4th December. That's his favourite toy, a mini space hopper, that he was throwing up in the air and catching!

2nd Dec






4th Dec - after the thaw

What a lovely Boy and you have done a grate job with him well done he looks so happy.

Thanks for keeping this update Paula , it makes rescue worth while when you see such happy dogs ..

Love this lad ...

Happy Christmas to you both ....

Thanks for the kind words about our boy. He is the dearest, funniest, sweetest natured dog one could hope for.

He loves the snow, as most dogs do. It's about 16 inches deep, drifting to over 2 ft in places here near Sevenoaks, Kent. Even Archie was exhausted after an hour walking round the golf course as the snow was deeper than the length of his legs and he had to keep leaping in order to make any progress. By the end of the walk, he just managed two leaps and stopped right in front of me (so I kept nearly falling over him..) as if to tell me, "Great fun, but that's enough, can we find a place where I can run normally now?"

After a quick power nap, he was ready to go out again a few hours later so off we had to go once more. For me, I suppose it was good exercise for the thighs, ploughing through 2ft of virgin snow....I slept well.

Archie is still as adorable as ever. His best friends are Labradoodles and we often go on group walks with the UK Labradoodle Association. Here he is today, 6 Feb 2011, at Banstead Woods.







His agility is improving and he still loves it, especially the tunnels, chutes and high walks.

We are so lucky to have him.

Paula he looks absolutly lovely and so do his furry friends

This boy just gets more handsome every day. Here he is with my parents' dog, Biskit, looking for mischief last weekend 3 April 2011
