North of the Border

February has been a busy month. From 10th to 20th we have been up in Scotland to house; horse (4); dog (3) and Guinea Pig (1) sit for our friends on their farm in the Borders.




Home from home? The sun sets over the cattle sheds on our first evening.







Spaniels galore as Hattie settles down with Nip and Tug. Two of her companions for the time being.




'I love my dad' Tug snuggles up with his dad, Nip (nearest to the fire).




Four happy hounds. Nip (with the Cracker), Tug, Harry - in a rare moment of good humour - and Hattie get cosy by the Aga.


Some of Richards 800 ewes watch as we walk the dogs at the top farm. The Cheviots have a blanket of snow in the distance.





One of Richards many sheds of beef cattle at the home farm.



Spirit and Gabby - two of the four horses we are in charge of.....






What a lovely boy! Nip is very proud of his ball, and he's doing his best to make sure no-one else gets it.


Next stop; Lincolnshire................
