Halloween Vizz Wizz

Today we went to meet up with some of our ginger friends from the Vizslascotland forum. (Mum says if anyone would like to join us on the forum you'd be most welcome. It's not just for Scottish people that's just where this particular group was formed so we could have some local vizz meet-ups. They love to chat about all things Viz. Vizslascotland welcomes members from everywhere).

A halloween wizz at the old Bangour Hospital site in West Lothian was arranged. Here's some snaps and happy halloween everyone.

What a great find this was. We had a great day and are a bit tired now.

Sophie goes for GOLD!

She did it!

Autumn colours

Mum & Dad took us for a last weekend in the caravan before winter. It actually snowed very lightly last night but we had our coats (phew!). Glad to get back home today though as it's getting very cold!We stayed in Blair Atholl just outside Pitlochry. The tree colours and leaves were beautiful and we fitted in perfectly. We had some great walks, and there was more than a few rabbits to point at and chase (but we didn't catch them).
This is a truly beautiful part of Scotland. The above image is of the 'Queens View'.
This and the one above this is on the river side walk alongside the caravan site.

For tomorrow

Training = naps!

Thought i'd post a pic of Sophie. Mum disappeared this morning after our walk with Sophie and I stayed with dad. When she came back she smelled of other dogs, how dare she! Turns out she'd been to start her 'gold' training.... i'll let her off then. Anyway here's a pic of her after her training, the poor love, what a lightweight eh!
Guess I have to wait until she's recovered till she'll play with me. PS. mum says she did really well.

Bad Mum!

I used to get the vet to clip the dogs nails when they went for worming/weight etc then I thought i'll do it myself. It's been going well although Ruby hates it and squirms, and tries to hop round on one leg (dragging me with her). Sophie on the other hand is an absolute star. She stands like a statue, tries to lick you while you're clipping , doesn't even flinch.

Tonight, I did Sophie - no problem. Got two of Ruby's claws done and after the usual chase round the kitchen etc got another one, was about to clip, she moves, yelps...... OMG blood everywhere!!!!! I applied pressure and it eventually stopped bleeding. I've put a tiny bit of antiseptic cream on and she's now sporting a natty spongebob sock and wearing a scowl (directed at me ). I doubt she'll let me do it again, so it'll be back to the vets doing it from now on. Here's my poor doggie, feeling very sorry for herself, she wouldn't even look at me.

Wow it's been ages since we blogged on here! I just told mum to pull her finger out and get on with it :-)

We've not done that much really, our brother & sister are back to school after the summer break so it's back to just me & sophie hanging out during the day. The weathers been quite nice but we did have one day which was torrential and, can you believe it, mum dragged us out! We couldn't believe it. Anyway apart from that it's been vizslas as usual. Sophie is going back to her dog training in a few weeks to do her 'gold'.

Most days me and Sophie just like lying where the sun shines, I have to say I always muscle in first.
