2 bassets in garden borders

We used to have a lovely garden . . .

Millie Dodd's puppies

Those who walked with us on Dartmoor – or who have
seen the video – may remember that Millie here was
expecting pups. Regrettably only two, so the new kitchen
has shrunk to a downstars loo. Anyway, as you can see
Mother and babies are doing well.
