Aww, look how she's growing. Seems to take after Stan with her love of the water. But 5am!! 😴😴 😄 J and J xx🐾

[Blackbird9 in reply to OOB_Tigger]

Best time of the day .. love the early mornings during summer... She's getting bigger daily ...she's just been to gun dog training and started her raw food diet which she loves ...the gun dog training is quite hard work but it's fun I'm enjoying it ...we are just doing one on one as I'm not a great people person in groups...

She does love the water but dosent actually throw herself in like Stan did he just used to launch himself right in she's more tippy toe 😂😂😂

[Blackbird9 in reply to djbctla]

Thankyou lovley we are blessed to have her ❤️

[Threecats]

Ah, the sheer joy of galloping about in the water😀 She looks like she’s having a fantastic time! Early summer mornings are the best in my book - so quiet and peaceful before everyone gets up, other than enthusiastic dog walkers, that is😄

[Blackbird9 in reply to Threecats]

I have more gusto at this time in the morning...I start collecting my customers at 6 am ... but fully agree its the best time 🥰

Just living the best life!😍😊🤗 xx

[Blackbird9 in reply to leo60]

She has her moments 😂😂

[Izb1]

What a life she is having, so much fun. Just a question, I noticed on your reply to OOB Tigger , why do you feed her raw meat? Is this to do with her gun training, sorry just being nosy x

[Blackbird9 in reply to Izb1]

No that's absolutely fine I prefer a raw diet for my dogs... they poo less and it smells less than kibble 💩... they're are loads of different varieties from chicken mince to venison its cheaper to buy ... She's being transitioned at the moment from kibble to raw so being fed 50...50 ...this time next month it will be all raw ...Stan only ever had raw meat and on the odd occasion I would make him liver or steak ... Sadie will have the same I give raw carrots apples bananas as treats 😋

[Izb1 in reply to Blackbird9]

Ha! That makes me laugh apples and bananas. My mum always had dogs but they never had raw meat or bananas and apples, just something from a tin and a bit of dried food x

[Blackbird9 in reply to Izb1]

Raw meat is £1.20 a block it does Sadie 6 meals over 2 days ... I bulk it out with mashed banna and apple lumps...Carrots as you know are 50 p a bag this lasts her on treats ages ... I freeze them and it helps her teething .....

Tins and kibble are so expensive now and full off additives ...for chew bars I get her rabbit ears and beef chews ...

The last tin of dog food I bought lasted a day and it was £1.50 that's the cost of Sadie for two days ...

[Izb1 in reply to Blackbird9]

Wow didnt realise pet food was so dear, good job you are practical and a good person to be looking after our little Sadie so well x

[Blackbird9 in reply to Izb1]

The prices of tinned meat are ridiculous... I wouldn't ever buy any again ... I remember I ran out of raw for Stan I had to buy a tin of dog food ... he turned his nose up at it like I was trying to poison him .... and Stan was easy pleased when food was involved... the benefits of raw diet are so much better than dry rubbish ...

... Within 3 months of having Stan on raw his coat was shiny and glossy .. his eyes danced and were bright ... prior to that his coat was dull and his eyes were dark and red looking ...he had been fed kibble forever...I'm sure kibble suits a lot but it's not for me or my doggos..... and of course the cheaper the cost 😂😂

Sadie looks the picture of health and happiness! I can almost smell 'wet dog' from here!😀 I'm sure you're having a great time with her. She's a lucky girl, for sure!

[Blackbird9 in reply to dunnellon]

Ahh yes she's starting to get settled...she's a pretty calm little girl which I would love her to keep 💜💜

[watergazer]

If only I lived by you I’d be out on that early walk. What a beautiful dog. I love to see them in water having fun. Xx

[Blackbird9 in reply to watergazer]

It's the best time ever early summer mornings...and then long light evenings ...It's been a bit cooler today thank goodness 💜💜

[watergazer]

We’ve had rain the last few days so a lot cooler here xx

[Ern007 in reply to watergazer]

I know it's two days ago. very nice photo but 5-30am?

[Blackbird9 in reply to Ern007]

Yes Ern 5.30 am ..... Best time of the day in my opinion the peace and quiet of the forest and no people around ... I still work for my bread and butter 😊

[Blackbird9 in reply to watergazer]

We had about 10 spots yesterday morning with a clap of thunder that was it .. its definitely cooler today but its still early 🥰

[Stratos20]

Ahh you have another water doggie BB. Fabulous 😘
