Cracking Patt. They're wise monkeys.

 

My one's loving our mouse problem indoors at the moment. One was trapped in a bucket in the kitchen and I thought it would be interesting for him to eyeball it at close quarters, know your quarry and all that. Needless to say he 'Patternated' it.

That's nothing, we had out Patterdale at our wedding then took her on a ferry to Guernsey!

 

 

 

 

Beautiful dog. Must admit I'm very wary of taking my dogs on the Ferry any further than the shortest runs now. The ferry companies give folk carrying dogs priority spaces so that they're last on and first off and hence on the upper decks so they have plenty of air. Going from Pompey to Cherbourg a few years back the crossing was about 7 hours. When I got back down to the dogs the Terrier was in a bad way, he'd overheated and it took him 24 hrs to get back to his normal self. I'd left seven windows open but there just wasn't enough air coming through the ship. As soon as you park up you're not allowed to go back to your vehicle and I wasn't allowed to take them up on deck. I didn't feel at all good leaving them. On the way back we drove right up to Calais and booked another ferry thus shaving a good 5 hours of the crossing.

 

I make sure the ferry leg (if its anything other than a hop over) is a night crossing now and also book with the French ferry companies who are more sympathetic to dogs and have much better ferrys.
