Bio:
Sammy was a bit of an experiment apparently. His showname is 'Valjon Jumbo Jet' mostly because he was the largest pup in his litter. The breeder had been attempting to lessen the risk of collie-eye in their pups by breeding with a larger male from Scotland 'Valjon Jet Setter' however Sammy turned out too large for show standard. He also has a rather characteristic overshot jaw and bad arthritis in his two front legs. Update. In Autumn 2008, my best friend and childhood companion was put to sleep by his Vet. His health had been detereorating for some time, and it transpired that he had a large internal tumor. I never wanted to see the day when I could take Sammy for a walk in the fields and I wouldn't be able to see his heart soar. So, goodbye Sammy, my beautiful friend and my first dog. My happiest memories are sleeping with you.

The life of a ginger fluffball


Did someone say Barbeque?

Well yesterday the whole family came over for a BBQ. What I don't understand is how they can continue to stuff their faces whilst I sit here looking as hungry as I possible can. Eventually though, Beth surrendered and gave me sufficient quantities of Burger. I'm telling you, looking as cute as you can works much better than dribbling like a... dog.

 

Groomed?

Well, yesterday Mum took me to the groomers. I look so handsome! They clipped me all nice and got all the knots out of my ginger fur. Im so proud of myself, and when I got home I pranced around with my tail in the air. I am the master of gingerness! I think they took enough fur off me to make a mini-me!
