I have decided to enter Sam under Greyhound as he will hopefully appear below his deceased friend 'Timmy' whose photo I incorrectly titled Sam! Sam is actually a Lurcher but mostly Greyhound blood. He has the speed of a Greyhound and the agility and stamina of a Border Collie. He is very clever and has taken over the role as 'crow chaser' from Timmy!

Timmy was 16 years old when this photo was taken. He was just two months away from his 17th birthday and remained fit and active to the end. He was one of my many ex-racing greyhounds that I have homed over the past thirty years and was with me for 9 of those years. I miss him terribly. He used to love to chase the crows and has taught my young lurcher to follow in his footsteps!

Trudi is four years old and lives with my five St.Bernards and lurcher. Although she loves a cuddle and will lie in your arms like a baby, she is very fast and fit and loves to join the big dogs on their mountain and beach walks each day. She has the sweetest nature and is very pretty with a beautiful coat. Just too cute!!

Penny is an 8 year old Terrier cross. I have had her since she was a puppy, we had to bottle feed her at first, as her mother had a very large litter, and unfortunately, she was rejected. She is very loyal, and an amazing friend. She follows me everywhere, you name it, she's there!

Sally (nicknamed 'Sally Long Legs' because she is so tall!) is twelve months old and is the latest addition to my St.Bernard family. She came to me via Rescue, as her family couldn't keep her. She is VERY excitable! However, in just three weeks she has learned to walk quietly on the lead and responds to all basic obedience commands. Sally is very loving and enjoys playing with my other four St.Bernards.

Heidi means 'something special' and 'kind,noble'. She is all of these things...a Saint by name and nature. She is five years old and is my very best friend. Heidi was not expected to see her first birthday due to severe hip dysplasia. However, with swimming, massage and several homeopathic remedies she is living a full and happy life and thoroughly enjoys playing with my other four rescued St.Bernards. Heidi is so special to me and that is why I wanted to share her picture with everybody.

Amy is eight months old and recently underwent orthopaedic surgery to repair a fractured femur. Amy is one of my family of five Saint Bernards. She is a wonderful girl and so well behaved. She is always so happy and cheerful and a real joker. You can't be sad when Amy is around! Her photograph was taken a couple of weeks following her final x-ray and that is why her right hind leg looks thinner because the fur was shaved off for her operation. Amy has the most beautiful, luxurious coat and is a fabulous rich dark brown\brindle. I love her to bits!

Zeta is another of my St.Bernard family. She is four years old and is a big, chunky girl from Champion lines. Zeta is a very sound, athletic bitch who even manages to give my very fast lurcher a run for his money! She has a lovely temperament and loves everybody and everything.

Lexie is the most mischievous of my St.Bernard family. We have nicknamed her 'Chunky Monkey'. She is nine months old and very chunky and strong. She is never still and continues playing long after my other Saints have crashed out. Her favourite activity is gathering up all of the other dogs marrow bones and sitting under the tree chewing each of them in turn!

3 year old gorgeous pedigree Rottweiler bitch...nothing else to say but gorgeous!
