Speckles - honorary member Judy’s new puppy
by Roger Howorth
There is a new, four-legged, fiend in Shoreham. We picked her up on Wednesday, 2nd February, from Rainham in Kent.
She was fourteen weeks old, tri-coloured with lots of white that’s covered with black and brown spots - as if she had an argument with a paint sprayer.
She has the face of an angel, the energy of an Olympic sprinter, and a mouth full of teeth that would do justice to a Pirhanna!
We have named her Speckles and she has already met most of the neighbourhood dogs and plays with them all - from the Jack Russells to the long-haired Alsatian.
The house looks like a department of Toys R Us and I’ve already given up hope of getting through the summer without the vegetable garden being Basset-scavated!
See you on the next walk - if I've got a pair of shoes left to wear!
