Hi All, Julia here.
I have been thinking over the last few days that I need to start preparing myself for what is to come once there is a Boxer dog in our family. Decided that maybe a few walks would be good start, so I went along to Hunsbury Park with Clare last Friday. She was walking one of her regulars, a gorgeous, very large Great Dane called Freya.
I had a great time and discovered 2 things. Mud - unavoidable! Wellies - must wear them!! It was everywhere by the time I had got back to the car and then of course it was in the car! Anyway, Lesson 1 learnt: 'Have wellies in the car at all times'.
Freya had a pretty good time too by the way, she has not been very well lately but on friday she seemed more like her old self, running endlessly for sticks!!
BOXER UPDATE - between myself, my husband and our oldest son, we have now decided on a name for our new Boxer. It has taken a very long time and we have worked through a lot of them! Our final decision is .. Ruby - will let you know if that changes before we collect her on the 30th December!
