Chris & Chris Amos are on their travels again:

We're currently at Sandringham Camping & Caravanning Club for the next week to get away from the building work on the house attached to ours!

Member Brian sent a photo of Molly, they will be staying members even though they are off to live in Spain!

There have been some stunning frosty mornings lately so I thought I would share some of Rosie at Hylands Park Chelmsford:

I work for Essex Libraries and we have been working with Essex Therapy Dogs to arrange regular visits to Libraries. In the Summer we had Therapy Dogs come in for the children to read books to as part of our Summer Reading Challenge. The 18th February was one of our Love Your Library Day's with the focus being Health and Wellbeing, the day was very successful and I managed to arrange Therapy Dogs to visit 43 libraries across Essex. On the back of this work I decided to see if Rosie could be a Therapy Dog - on Thursday she had her assessment and passed with flying colours.

This is Rosie relaxing after passing her assessment:

Dates for the diary:

Sunday 2nd April - Ramble at Hylands Park Chelmsford

Sunday 4th June - Lavender Walk - Shoreham

Please do send me photos and stories of what you and your dogs have been up to.
