A dog's life

This is our first ‘child’ Gidget, who’s now 13 years old. She’s a kelpie and has the most adorable floppy soft ears, which she’s had since she was a pup.

We got her free from the Newdegate Field Day and then later found out her mum was the neighbour’s dog. Anyway, she’s been a great dog and she’s allowed inside as the cold gets to her joints at night.

Here she is camped out by the fire and is actually sleeping on my daughters leg who is asleep under the blanket also. Notice the middle-age spread she’s got going on. Spoilt and loved.
