Marsh’s Marvellous month of January Happy New Year everyone. We all stayed up until after midnight on New Year’s Eve, and the kids had an outdoor fire pit lit in the garden. It was very dark, so I wore my lit-up collar, which kept me visible. My boy decided to donate...

Marsh’s Marvellous month of October I’ve had a quieter month and have enjoyed staying home most days, but just for a few hours at a time. My new bed is just an old couch cushion with a soft blanket, but it’s very comfortable and bigger than the last one. For off-leash...

Marsh’s Hot month of July This month, I experienced summer heat, and it slowed me down rather a lot. Morning walks were the most enjoyable because the air was cooler, and I am getting a little bit better at walking longer distances, and sniffing a little less and...
