Tommy the beagle takes over

Sorry to any daily visitors. I've been rather remiss this week on keeping things up to date. This is soley down to my beloved beagle puppy (8months now) Tommy.

He's become so strong that I can hardly hold him now when out on our 5 mile walks if he decides to try to chase something, so he is about to become one of the most spoilt little beasts in the land with a newly fenced off 1/2 acre of land to romp till he drops, all to himself. Being a hound dog if he gets the scent of something he won't come back when called, so has to be kept on a lead all the time now, but he really needs to get his head and run around to tire out properly.

So I've been out helping the contractor put up a 6' fence which is proving rather harder than anticipated due to how hard the ground is. We're having a heck of a job getting the posts in and that's even with the hydraulic post thumping thing.........(probably not the right name for it....lol)

Just a few more days and he'll get back to playing football and frisbee catching though.... I hope.

Anyway.........please bear with me and I'll try to do a round up of the weeks events at some point over the weekend.

Just for my own amusement I might do a regular Tommy update (he's a character and a half) and have created a label just for him.....lol
