New Year greetings came at the beginning of the month from Gemma, who has Darcey. Darcey is from Puddin' and Teagol's litter of seven pups. She is Polly's sister, so Ernest and Blottie's Granddaughter as well. "Dear Jane I wanted to send you a note to wish you a happier new year in 2022. I’m so pleased you continued with breeding as the puppies you bring into this world are such joys. Darcey is beloved by all who spend time with her- she is such a wonderful natured dog and she makes us laugh and smile and feel warmth in our hearts every single day, even on days that bring difficult emotions and challenges. This I believe is down to your careful breeding, care and your morals too, and of course your lovely family who help to create such gentle well-rounded pups. I’m sure many of us will be keeping you particularly in our minds throughout the next month or so with Blottie. Here attached are a few pics of Miss Darcey herself, one from the summer mid-leap in a wild flower meadow , one of her looking at me in a “really is this worth it?” way, while I do some exercise off the tv and another viewing the outside world from her cosy perch- thought it was a good shot of her head shape and nose. Darcey is extremely curious and checks out every hole in a hedgerow and loves pulling seaweed out of the shallows of the sea and rock pools- she can’t get to the edge of the water quick enough but has yet to attempt a swim- she likes to clearly see the bottom of the water - measured - as you said she would be! Her recall is getting very good on the whistle now and retrieval is coming along too. Particularly good this winter season with the reward of some Pooch and Mutt turkey festive bites with cinnamon! Sending Team Poundlane lots of sniffs, licks and best of wishes from us all here, of both the four and two pawed variety. X"
