Happy Birthday darling Jackson. 9 years old today. You bring so much fun into our lives and we adore you.

It’s Tintin’s gotcha day! Amazing that he will be 6 this year. He’s a bundle of joy and keeps us amused constantly with his effervescent personality. It’s with such pleasure to thank Sue Green and Kev Wood for finding and saving him for us. We owe you the world.

It’s almost Tuesday 5th March and it's our sweet Odin’s gotcha day. Never has a boy been as loved as this one. He’s a real wee character and makes us laugh every day. He loves his cuddles and especially when I go to work and he manages to sneak upstairs on to the bed, just so mummy doesn’t feel lonely. He even snores like me allegedly 🤔.

He is a truly beautiful boy and so good with his brothers - well Tintin does annoy him at times but he soon puts him in his place! We are forever thankful to the tireless admin of Doodle Rescue that connected Odin to us, and of course Sandra Wilson for taking the decision to hand him over to us.

We adore you Odi ### ❤️🐶

Good news, Jackson is finally on the mend! He’s recovered from all infection and is off all medication thank goodness. We had yet another scare when he was bleeding whilst pooping but turned out it was his medication. He’s fine now.

Hopefully things will continue to improve for him. We also have the wee Graham here at the moment and he absolutely adores Jackson. They’ve all had haircuts too. It’s been about six months since Jackson was done so it’s been quite the transformation. The groomer did him an hour at a time so he wasn’t too long standing.

The other two, Odin and Tintin especially are up to no good as usual! But, we love them all just as they are. ❤️

Jackson in the snow.

No wild swimming today as the roads here are treacherous says mum. Not sure if she’s making it up to get out of it.

Jackson update. He’s had a pretty rough time of things since his surgery. The latest news is that he may have a residual infection so back on a different antibiotic for two weeks. Also the infection he had may have dissolved the internal stitches which is why he’s not healing as quickly as he should. The vet down in East Neuk gave him a thorough examination and we have a plan going forward.

At this point I firmly believe the devil himself is playing a cruel joke on me because as part of Jackson’s rehabilitation I will now be taking him wild swimming. In winter. In Scotland.

I do have a wetsuit but no words.

Jackson is as happy as Larry.

Happy Doodle Yule from Jackson, Odin and Tintin. 🐶🐶🐶🎄

Music people. This.

So Jackson’s had a wee bit of a set back as his leg is now infected. After a rush to the emergency vet last night he is now on antibiotics thank goodness. He had been doing so well. I feel guilty despite having done everything by the book. I hate seeing him like this. It’s breaking my heart. Anyway, hopefully that’s him on the mend now. He has eaten and drank of his own accord this afternoon which is a huge improvement as I had literally to pour water into his mouth.

Tintin and Odin are keeping him company. You can see the wound weeping here and the infection has pooled to his ankle. It’s much less red and hot now through.

Managed to get a wee photo of his wound for those interested.

Jackson is making steady progress. His dressing is off and wound looks clean. He hates the cone but is getting used to being in his crate. This will be a long process but he’s doing so well. He doesn’t seem to be in pain so I’ve cut back on the heavy meds. He’s still getting regular doses of the lesser stuff though.

He’s up and out every couple of hours on the lead to do his business which he is really enjoying. I have him on a tight reign as he still thinks he can run off with the others. He’s putting a tip toe of weight on the leg now but I will take it very slowly.

I bought a post surgery onesie for Jackson which will hopefully prevent licking when his stitches are out and the cone has gone. He tried it on for size and it’s rather fetching!

Tintin has made a full and exuberant recovery from his cyst removal and I have had to wash and hide up his snood!

Odin is a wee star and very concerned about Jackson. He often lies outside his crate to keep him company. And somehow he made it up to my bed last night, the wee chancer.

I tell you, dogs are just amazing but this is hard work! So happy they are all doing so well.

Tintin is making an excellent recovery but now it’s Jackson who has been in the wars. Last week whilst out walking he suddenly started to limp and only use three legs.

After a trip to the vet poor Jackson was diagnosed with a cruciate ligament rupture. He was clearly in pain but very stoic.

We tried to get an appointment for surgery as quickly as possible and Inverness could take him on Wednesday 22nd. However, once they discovered he was raw fed they said they wouldn’t do the surgery because of a perceived increase in risk of infection. They said we had to feed him kibble for two weeks and then they would do it.

Obviously that wasn’t good enough and we made an appointment for him on Wednesday 22nd down in East Neuk in Fife. He was examined and x rayed and indeed there was ligament break and cartilage issues too. They had no issue with raw fed and complimented Jackson on his lean and fit physique.

He was operated on Thursday 23rd and came through with flying colours. The service provided by East Neuk Veterinary Clinic was outstanding. They texted several times with updates and were thorough in their explanation of what was happening to Jackson. I cannot praise them highly enough. They made a very difficult trip much easier with their caring attitude. We are so grateful to them.

We got home today (Friday 24th) after a long drive. I had to stop several times as Jackson was quite uncomfortable. Thankfully I had meds from the vet with me.

He’s in his crate with his cone of shame. He is very happy to be home and has eaten all of his dinner. Apparently he was hand fed cooked chicken for his breakfast and the staff called him a Prince! Nothing new there!

I’ll keep you posted on his progress. It will be a long road to full recovery but initial signs are good. Thank goodness.

It’s a hard life being a fashion icon. Odin keeps blocking the view of it with his tail. I think he’s just jealous says Tintin

20/11/2023

I think wee Graham the mini schnauzer is jealous of my accessory says Tintin. He’s my big sis Rebecca’s dog and is visiting right now. I think he came to see my snood.

20/11/2023

I love my snood says Tintin. I keep it on all night just because.

19/11/2023

Look at our dood with the snood! Tintin is the height of fashion after a wee op to remove a cyst in his neck. He’s absolutely fine and won’t take it off!

He’s in great health, the cyst wasn’t bothering him at all but we decided it was better out.

Entering the Paris fashion show next year!

Our wee monster Odin is 7 today! Where did the time go? Such a cute little teddy bear terrorist. He wolfed down his birthday breakfast of raw beef chunks, beef mince and sardines. He doesn't know he's got same again for his meal tonight! 🐶💙

I use this. Easy to get online or Holland and Barrett.

Jackson is now eight years old. He’s followed closely by Odin who will be seven this year and Tintin who is five. I can’t quite believe how the time has flown.

Jackson was looking a bit stiff in his back end - only occasionally and usually after a lot of exercise. Vet thinks it’s either that he is aging or a bit of arthritis or a spur on his back. No x rays so who knows? It’s not often he looks stiff so I decided to do some homework and see if supplements would help.

Lots of people suggested ‘you move’ but instead of this (expensive) I went straight to the main ingredient which is green lipped mussel. He gets two a day and he’s absolutely fine. Not had the issue for ages. Also reduced his food as he is a bit older now and he’s doing great.

We also decided to get a ramp for the car and here’s a wee video of them using it.

All doods are in the best of health and loving life as usual. Never a dull moment.

06/08/2023

He’s covered. Look at him! I’ll be ages picking those out. Oh Jackson!

06/08/2023

Who said doodles weren’t very bright? Check my lot out when I stopped throwing sticks for them - there were none on the ground.

24/06/2023

The handsome boy Jackson. 25°C inside...21°C outside at 22:00. Smart doggie 🐶♥️

20/06/2023

Birthday boy Tintin right beside me as there’s thunder. He really doesn’t like it. Poor thing.

20/06/2023

And just in case you thought he had changed in any way…

20/06/2023

Happy 5th Birthday to you Tintin! You have changed our lives and it’s been a real treat to have you with us - as well as a bit of a challenge over the years! We wouldn’t change you for all the world. You are sweet, chatty, naughty and possibly the most loving boy on the planet. We just adore you ❤️🐾

12/06/2023

Sakes. More thunder. Tintin up close. Baby x

11/06/2023

Not keen on thunder mum says Tintin

08/06/2023

Tintin is such a good boy these days. Now I just need him to not bring it in in the first place!

13/05/2023

Tintin is such a conversationalist. What a story!
