Purdy the Lurcher: 2017 and my new Guardians

This was me with a friend (I can't remember her name) before I met, and went to live with, my new 'Guardians' Phil and Dee in October 2017.

Before that, I was briefly looked after by a friendly man in Harlow, called Barney I think, who fed me lovely food! While at Harlow I also met a lady called Kimberley, who introduced me to her dogs, Scamp the Lurcher and Frannie the Lab. I think she was checking me out for Phil and Dee. They were both very friendly. Oh, by the way, back then I was called Lady and this was my regime!

I was just getting used to tinned sausages, cooked ham and chicken nuggets when Phil and Dee started feeding me just dried food with some water - urghh. I quickly got used to it though and was also given some different treats - mmm.

I like my new home with plenty of different walks and smells. There is also a room, a bit like an oven when the sun is out - lovely to relax in! More of that later.

I can run, if I want to!

Beccles Common

We travel by truck and I had the back seat all to myself!

They had recently moved into a new house and one of the first things they did was to put in a wood burner, how did they know! So I even let them cuddle me a little bit.

At Christmas we visited a hotel and then my first of many visits to The Lake District where we had so much fun roaming in the mountains.

I think there was a squirrel...

They already had a Green coat that they gave me but then bought two more, one Grey waterproof and one Orange fleece. Just as well as the weather was cold in The Lakes!
