Meet the canine Horde

This is a "meet my hounds" post. Myself and a friend loaded up the collective horde a couple of weeks ago and took the hounds for a walk in Dun a Ri - a little forest park about a 10 minute drive from the house. She has two terriers and I have the three terrors so we were well matched.



While we were out I took some pictures of the hounds while my friend held the leads (I did try putting them in a sit and stay but as soon as I tried to get their attention they'd get up, ruining the picture). That's Loki (4 year old border collie) on the left and Budda (8 year old cocker spaniel x) on the right. I love this picture of the two of them - they had an absolute ball that day and I think it shows :-)

I didn't manage to get as decent a picture of the Yama Moo (3 year old Great Dane) unfortunately but here's one of her tied to a bench while the others were getting their photo taken.

She enjoys fusses so she wasn't that bothered by being stopped every few minutes by people who wanted to comment on "just how big she is" (at the small end for breed standard!) and to wonder how much she eats (a fair bit).

They slept well that night :-)

What's in a name?

It's not really a very accurate database but it's still fun :-) So, how unique are you?
