Max is back!

So the little, white, tapping dog has arrived in Sheffield. He boarded his flight in Doha and was collected in Manchester and here he is, freezing his bits off in Sheffield. Initially I was worried about how he would cope in the freezing cold, but he is loving it and has taken to it like...well, like a desert dog to snow... He seems to be enjoying not burning his feet on the tarmac and getting long dirty walks through the woods. He gets on well with Lad and Oliver loves having his dog home.

Max is off to Pampered Pets

My little, annoying, tapping, lovable desert dog is off to pampered pets (www.ppkdoha.net/). As we didn’t intend to leave Qatar so quickly (and I wasn’t very organised), he isn’t ready to fly until the end of December, so he is going for a little holiday at pampered pets. 

The place is totally random! It's on a farm miles out of Doha in the middle of nowhere. They have a great set up there and hopefully he is going to enjoy it!!  

We have organised a pet relocator to take him to the airport and pop him on the plane to Manchester - which will be a shock to the system for the poor little fella!! It might be a tad cold for him, but at least he'll enjoy walking without burning his little paws on the tarmac. 

Slight issue is he is terrified of water! When I say terrified, I mean so terrified that he will risk breaking his legs to jump over a puddle – what on earth is he going to do in the UK in winter, poor little thing. I have a feeling Max’s first walk will need a post of its own.
