Fab. Ooh Ted would love that- he loves the sea. He's just rain averse 🤣

Ted's a Canadian lab, even has webbed feet! Loves the sea but hates the rain. I bought a dog pool for him to cool off in- he wont go near it. Basically I've invested in a giant bird bath!

I was just saying to someone- sjow him a mucky puddle, river or the sea & he cant wait to get in. A bit of rain & I cant get him outdoors!

My lab is the same- a mucky puddle, river or the sea he cant wait to get in. Rain, & he runs for cover! Cooling off in the Med- how lovely.

Yes it is the rose bred by Sam McGredy. This one is 4 years old, bought from David Austin as a bare root.

Thanks, it was such a shock to see my friend's dog collapse. I've got a couple of blackbirds & robins nesting in the front garden so no doubt they'll be enjoying the water bowl too! The kitchen should be finished by the end of next week.

He certainly is. He followed me for a whole afternoon whilst I weeded the pathway, hoovering up insects.

I grew a whole tray of these from seed to transplant around the garden. I love them.

I've been building the ladybird community over the last 7 years as part of restoring the ecosystem. Now I've no aphid damage at all which is great.
