"Go on throw it, THROW IT!!!!" Lily and Rosie on the beach in Scotland with "Papa Steve" and their favourite toy.

"I'll just wait in here incase you forget to take me with you" Rosie loves the Happy Van, Steve's dogmobile, this is her space and once the holiday boxes come out she's in the van and waiting to go, hours before we are ready.

Lily has such a sweet, happy go lucky nature which she has passed on to all her children. She has quite happily allowed Rosie to become "top bitch", she has better things to do than keep Oliver and Kane in order!!!!

A holiday in the caravan was the perfect cover for the two intrepid secret agents to stake out the competition for the Ireland 2005 agility tour!!!

I was first introduced to Weimaraners 16 years ago when Shalina Kittiwake, Kit, came to live in the Mews with Murray Cooper. Kit was a typical Weimaraner, obsessed with hunting, obsessed by my cats! (my word they were quick off the mark in those days) and as stuck up as they come.

Kit had a litter and Murray kept a pup, Bo, at six months of age Bo moved in with me and Benji, my long suffering Golden Retriever and the super fast cats! Fortunatly all the dogs since Kit have grown up with cats so they are fat and slow now not the lean 100m dash cats of the past.

From Bo's litters I kept Kane, team softie and Lily, team show off! Lily had a lovely litter of planet pups in 2000 (born on the day of the planet alignement, 5th May) from which I kept Oliver and Rosie. At almost five years of age Oliver decided to have a go at agility with my partner Steve, Ollie loves it and he has just started competing along with Jess, Steve's border collie. Everyone at the agility club has fallen in love with Ollie, he has such a lovely happy personality. Rosie will be having her last litter at the begining of Feb 2006, a repeat of the last mating which produced such lovely laid back pups. Who would have thought that one introduction to a stuck up grey beastie would have led to this! Roll on the next sixteen years.
