Anyone for a Walk?

Houdini obviously doesn't mind the hot weather, and will fetch his own retractable lead if needed in order to encourage his owner to get up early for the morning walk!



Thanks to Rick Miles for this photo of Houdini. Taking photos of "Poodle joy" moments is Rick's specialty!

Before this dog food order arrived, for the last month or so, the housedogs were eating a basic dry food, Eukanuba. It just happened to be what we had here for the kennel dogs (not Poodles) so it was handy, but it is not something I normally feed my Poodles.
