I had my suspicions before the snow came that Ebby’s tummy was not growing. On Thursday we decided to take her to the vets. After a scan and x-ray she was confirmed not in pup. We are so disappointed but will try her once more next season. She is now on a strict diet after enjoying 4 meals a day and special privileges but much to her delight her exercise regime is back to normal. She enjoyed a trip to Mortimer Forest in the snow with Jas and Jas’s brother Sully.

Cassie as you can see is positively blooming. Poor poppet is getting more uncomfortable as the days go by. She has 7 days to go. I don’t suppose for one minute she will go full term.
