Mary S. Moffat --- My Dogs

 

Here is Rooskie learning to jump at two years old.

While below is a picture of Rooskie Taking a Bow.

 

 

 

Take a Bow, Rooskie

Rooskie is now trying Heelwork to Music and here he is bowing

 

 

 

Rooskie now has his own online Diary. See below.

Below you will see the names of my dogs and if you click on them you will find photographs of them and notes about them. But first a few general remarks.

My dogs mean the world to me. They have given me so much. I have trained them and have competed in open and championship shows. I have taken my little Papillons into Working Trials alongside the big dogs and I have qualified two of them CD.Ex. (Companion Dog Excellent - the first Working Trials qualification). My present young dog has the the Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog certificates Bronze and Silver.He has also just taken up Heelwork to Music and has passed the test for the Paws and Music Association's Progress Award Level 1 Musical Dressage with Merit.

Through training and competition I have visited many places and met many people whom I would not have met otherwise and I really appreciate the experience. My dogs have also helped with my writing. They have given me ideas and have helped to explore the settings. My dogs are also responsible for another of my interests -- photography.

Above all all my dogs have been great companions who have given me all their love.

Click on the following names for details and photographs. There are lots of photographs so please be patient.

The Rooskie Press Newsletter

In effect this is Rooskie's own online diary as he has his own section at the end of the entry for each month.

The Rooskie Press is my own imprint and the first book to be published under it is Solway Sleuth-Hounds. Newsletter charts progress of the Rooskie Press and of Solway Sleuth-Hounds. Also includes details of Rooskie and his attempts at Heelwork to Music.

The Rooskie Press is my own imprint. It is hoped that this newsletter will be updated monthly. It will be divided into roughly three sections all under clear headings. The first section will be about the Rooskie Press and its books -- both those already in print and also books which I am working on. The second section will be about me personally. This will include a great deal about my holiday chalet at Southerness on the shores of the Solway Firth. The final section will be about Rooskie since he gave his name to the Press -- his training and his progress in Heelwork to Music.

This arrangement means that you will be able to select the parts of the newsletter which will be of most interest to you. If you are mainly interested in the progress of this particular self-publishing project, then you can just read the first section. But if your main interest is dogs and dog training then you can miss out the book section and scroll straight to the dog sections.
