Settling in !!
Well kitsi has now been part of the family for 17 days now and she has settled in really well .
Mo Mo and Kitsi are already the best of friends and are constantly playing and chasing each other all over the house, its absolute bedlum 
But at least by bedtime they are both so tired that they just crash out and sleep so we have had no trouble with kitsi in the night .

Hi,
Glad to hear Kitsi is settling in so well. Great video and photos having so much fun with Mo Mo.
We took a big decision to get a dog in the new year after thinking about it for years!
We have done travel photography (for work) in summer for 25 years, so Barney will certailnly stop a lot of that as we intend to give him the attention he needs and deserves.
We were amazed to find Mandy in Hindley which is just 4 miles from us and her new litter were available at just the right time. When we went around and saw Barney with Kitsi and his other siblings, we fell head over heels instantly.
We can’t believe how clever Barney is and I am sure your two are just the same. He was sitting, staying and shaking a paw for treats at 7 weeks and is excellent on the lead etc.
The only trouble is his teeth. My word, they are like needles as you will know and we are working hard to stop his nips.
Like the book says, we have found Tibetans don’t like to be left alone and in Barney’s case this means for 5 minutes. We are working on that one too.
We have booked classes for him and I think that will be fun.
You can see pictures of him on Mandy’s website under Barney of course. Mandy does a great job with her dogs and she is very supportive.
We wondered how his siblings were getting on and it is brilliant to be able to look at your site.
Momo and Kitsi look wonderful together.
Best Wishes,
Gwen and Phil Charnock

Hi Gwen & Phil
thanks for posting, it’s always nice to hear from other ‘in-laws’
yep, the pups are very clever, Kits is sitting and and shaking her paw as well (she’ll do anything for food)
needle teeth were a problem when we got Mo Mo (I’m sure they thought we were harming the kids at school, they were torn to shreds), but we don’t seem to have noticed it this time, so it must be that Mo’s bearing the brunt of it
we did find that a high pitch squeal and then leaving the pup alone for a few minutes taught them where the line was… eventually….
Barney looks like he enjoyed himself in the snow, I was going to say they’re great pictures, but then, seeing as you’re photographers, they would be wouldn’t they
Enjoy Barney and we’ll speak soon

Hi Gary
Tried the high pitched squeel and ignoring for a bit & seems to work so far. This breed seems to be very intelligent and we will have to be one step ahead all the time. Fantastic temperament though an like yourselves can see us getting another in the future. We are already getting stopped in the street with admirers. 2nd injection on Wed.
Others from the litter went far & wide although we live only 5 mins from Mandy. Are you from Merseyside area?
Cheers
