Cliquot has been spayed and still has to stay crated and walk on lead for a few more days yet, feeling very sorry for herself! 🎻

We had such a fabulous time yesterday being ambassadors to poodles! Lovely to meet so many people who already share out antics on here or Instagram Retro_poodles ( where I keep it more up to date!) we stopped by the brilliant Doglyness UK stand where the girls became giddykippers 😂🐟🐩

Trying to behave themselves for Santa but Kooki has already pinched some of my butter pastry I had made for mince pies and knocked over my snowball because she fancied that too! 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

It’s a very sad day today it’s with a very heavy heart we announce we have lost our beautiful new boy Barrington to Dialated Cardiomyopathy suddenly. After just 3 weeks in our life. We are broken. So young .

Went to morecambe the other weekend, decided to reshoot the podium photo that was used in the front cover of a magazine, with some of our new girls!

I forgot to say, I trimmed down Cliquot into Miami clip as she’s going through a horrendous coat change and it was like trying to comb cotton wool! Took Coco a bit shorter too! A few befores and afters for you!

We took a ride down to the Wild West of North Yorkshire last week! We only took the babies and they took to cave dwelling well to keep cool too! Like a couple of little bear cubs! This was to do a photo shoot of my new little venture of making bespoke westernwear again! I used to make lots for bands etc in the 90’s but dropped it as our costume business got busy! Well I’m back and you can see more Melanie Calland Custom or on Instagram

I gave Coco a little make over! With the help of some thread nets which I use to mark up the lines and see if she’ll suit it first!! She had a gap in her leg from her spay anyway, so it made sense.
