Christmas wasn't looking too promising, bags were being packed which is always rather worrying, but there was a surprise in store, a human called Tim arrived and along with some of our favourite toys and bedding we were chauffeur driven to our holiday home - The Canine Country Club
We soon became good friends with Tim & Jackie and had great fun, we had a very luxury room to stay in which had underfloor heating so we were snug and warm. It was very cold outside though so we made sure to keep reminding Jackie that we feel the cold, our hotel room was always very snug and warm though. In fact since returning home I have been trying to tell Mum that she should install underfloor heating, heat coming out of the wall is all very well but you can't lie on the wall can you?!
We also went swimming in a heated indoor swimming pool where I showed off my swimming skills, not sure what I thought of this indoor swimming lark though, not quite the same as a lake or the sea! Ditto said she felt lots safer in an indoor pool but she is a girl after all!
Each day was filled with activities, walks and fun. Emptying out the toy bin became a daily ritual, one can never have enough toys and its always important to check them all before making a selection - Jackie and Tim let me bring my favourite toy home with me - a very squeaky Christmas cracker which makes huge amounts of noise :)

No matter how large the field we often like to run on the same piece of grass!We are looking forward to going to visit Tim & Jackie again later this year, there is a plus side to Mum packing her bags :)

Looks wonderful and the dogs look extremely happy.
Excited about my trip to England in late April. Maybe we can take a walk if I end up near your home city.

Hi Rod
Yes dogs did come back very happy from there and settled in real quick back at home, without seeming tired or stressed at all.
Do give me a shout when you are over in the UK and we could arrange a walk if you are my way at all, you can email me through this blog.
Cheers
Kate
