Meg’s gone camping!

"How does one get some food around here?"

“I say, how does one get some grub around here?”

Ever patient, our Meg is making it obvious that she’s next in line for the distribution of any leftovers.

She has always been an outside dog but ever since moving to Leeds opportunities for a bit of free roaming are few and far between … there are just too many potentially dangerous distractions and places to get stuck or lost which is a problem with all suburban living.

Here natural state though is as, I suppose, the natural state of all dogs since they first domesticated us humans and got us to feed and tend to them in exchange for a few scraps and the occasional woof at a passing stranger.

Meg’s favourite quote is, “woof”!

For those that don’t know, our Meggie is a springer collie cross (a sprollie) and is the ‘Me’ of Mekuti. She is also the reason why this all started … err … she has ‘issues’! More of that another time.
