NAKED at the garden centre !!!

Absolutely brill again TT. Glad to see the boys enjoy themselves, and Conker looking so brave between the lions. Lol. Loved the sheep herding too, and could do with a bit of help from Conker and his rake. :o))

WOW!! How cute are they! Lovely plants to :))))

Hi Linda and Michaella... Thanks ...
It was a lovely day ...
the garden centre welcomes dogs ...
We had a great time :o)

Fabulous blog. Love those dogs. Conker really enjoyed himself.

Conker I could do with a bit of help raking now and again or an expert to teach Brynner a few garden manners, we are are going through a destructive period at the moment I`m afraid.
I think Truffle likes the plants and is of the opinion they`ll fit in his garden well, he looks well pleased that you value his input, lol.
Pleased you all enjoyed your outing Terra, lovely photo`s, both boys looking very handsome as usual.....

Brilliant blog, TT!

And such good dogs...wish mine were like that...I've had to 'dogproof' all my flowerbeds to stop mine running through them like lunatics every time a cyclist goes by!

I shudder to think what they'd be like in a garden centre, let alone off the lead.

Well done!!

Thank you Cinders ...
Yes, Conker did enjoy himself...
I might see if he can get a job at the Garden Centre ;o)

Lincs ... Truffle is good at input and at output ;o)
He could teach Brynner some more naughty habits...Lol.

Karen ... Conker is very well-behaved in the garden ...
but Truffle often seems to end up sitting on the flowers ..
his front end doesn't know what the back end is doing :o)

Hi TT what a way you have in telling stories, you are not a author by any chance. :0-)))

Hi Oldcrock ... Thanks ..
... my pets inspire my story-telling ;o)))

ooooooooooooooooooo i loved it ................. how gajuss are they , they really did enjoy themselfs lol , wot a lovelly day ;0)))

What a fantastic blog, I really enjoyed it, so glad you all had a lovely day out at the GC, Truffles is far from camera shy he really plays the part,

yes wish mine were so well behaved, looks like they had a good day

Thanks Cristina, Yorks and Pondlady ...
we had a lovely day ...
Truffle is still sometimes called "Trouble" ...
he can be naughty ...

Conker is a treasure isnt he? Clever dog, i love your blogs always entertaining TT, Rocky would just run over everything and i couldn't imagine taking him to a garden centre he'd be after licking everyone!!! I like those Lions.....

I don't believe one word of what you say about "Truffles can be naughty" Tt

Lol Skilla and Yorks..
Truffle also likes to greet everything and everyone !

Hello Conker thankyou for a guided tour of the garden centre.... I'm sure that your expert advice is always welcome and all your hard work, just imagine if the sheep had got into the glass houses..... Truffle i see is the official quality controller and has to inspect each plant as it arrives-- I just can't make out if he eats the ones he likes.......(Conker is my hero and I love his blogs.....:0)))

A delightful blog again TT. When I saw the caption I thought you had fallen in the pond and had to strip off.lol.

Hi Pam ... Thanks ...
Be assured the sheep arrived home safely ;o)
... and Truffle managed to not actually eat any plants ...
but he inspected each one with lots of sniffs ... Lol.

Hello Stroller ...
there is a Garden Centre pond ...
... but it has a fence around ..
... no swimming on this trip ;o)

What a lovely trip to the garden centre, bu two very friendly and helpful guides. You look like you have bought a lovely selection of plants, I spy some very interesting Sedums there, Thanks Conker and Truffle for the tour, hope you were rewarded with some tasty treats;0))

Hi PP ...
Conker chose some lovely sedums and houseleeks ...
I rely on his gardening expertise ...
Truffle is still learning ... ;o)

I will be interested to watch their development. Im sure Conker has an expert nose for these kind of things;0)

Awwww... such a lovely way of telling us about your trip to the GC. I love reading about your adventures with yours boys. Conker and Truffles seem like real gems! I think Ruby would like the garden centre but likes to be centre of attention so barks a lot for people to say hello to her :)

Hi Deadlyrose...
I've not seen that many dogs at the garden centre... a Papillon, a Labrador Retriever. I'm sure Ruby would enjoy a visit..Lol. ;o)

i certainly enjoyed your outing conker ~ i was a bit worried about those naked people ~ should you have been looking? im not impressed that the man in the sports car left you to do all the work
will you be on one woman and her dog next time?
and truffle ~ how many plants did you eat?

lovely pictures~ thanks TT

Hello Sticki ...
We'll have to return to the Garden Centre on a cold day, and see if those naked people have put on some warm clothes ! ;o)
Conker and Truffle send hugs :o)

thank you conker and truffle, im sending some warm rugs to cover those people up!!

Wondered where you were TT and now I know!! Busy making movies, wonderful blog as usual, did you have to ask permission to 'film' ? Conker & Truffle look well TT. I hope you got your plants in!!

Lovely Terratoonie - we have a collection of the wolfgarten tools - they're brill - a bit of money but well worth it. We bought trowel, rake, wire brush, hoe and normal brush upto now with short and long handle.

Looks a great trip out for you and the dogs :):):) I love the plants you bought - especially the sempervivums :):):):)

Hi Grandmage ... Thanks..
Interesting question ...
I probably didn't need permission to film, but I did ask if it would be okay to take photos...
My plants not in yet but about to receive some rain ...

Hello Paul...
Sounds like you have a wonderful garden tool collection !
Yes, I'm pleased with the plants...
the prices were reasonable too :o)))

:):):):)

great blog Terra and lovely tour guide to, and tour guide helper lol
enjoyed the pics to, glad you enjoyed your outing :o))

Hi Sandra ...
thanks ... I think Truffle would take everyone on a different tour route than Conker would choose ...
... Truffle would go directly to the Garden Centre Restaurant ...Lol... ;o)

What lovely pictures. I love your dogs.

Thanks Alex :o)))

Once again love the pic's, and the blog :)

Hi Sue... Conker and Truffle say thanks :o)

another fantastic blog Terra, love the new plants.. and conker and truffles look like they had fun to..

Hello Conker! Seeing you against that wall of tools, I hadn't realised how tiny you were...I think I love you even more! Mind you, I could give Truffle a huge hug too! I'm glad all three of you had a lovely sunny gardening day! (hugs!)

Ha Ha that was good. Are they 2 stuffed dogs u carry round with u to pose in pics? Or trained professional models of dogs? How on earth do u get them to pose like that? That first one loves the camera!
Very cute blog and nice few plants u got there.

Lovely blog TT. I love the dogs antics. Very nice collection of new plants too. Where are you going to find the space for them.

Love the selection of plants...good choice...I was looking at some of your selection myself yesterday, but they were really expensive...I notice that the G/C we were at called Jardiland..has branches in the UK too...have any of you been to their G/C's

Thanks Surreylad and Libet...
Conker and Truffle send hugs :o)

Hi Angie ..
Conker loves posing for the camera ! :o)

Hello Scotsgran... I only buy small plants now...
... no more room for larger shrubs !

Crissue ... I've not heard of Jardiland ...
Pity the plants you saw were rather expensive...

Brill blog, pleased you had a nice time at the garden centre with the boys lovely plants aswell.

Hi Clarice.. Thanks..
Glad you enjoyed the blog ..
Conker and Truffle send hugs to Tilly and Jack :o)

Another lovely blog and pics,Terra..do those two boys get a treat when they pose so nicely for you,or are they just little show offs ? Lol.

Hi Bloomer .. Thanks ..
I had no treats at the garden centre for Conker, but when I take photos at home, my dogs sometimes get treats !

wot a fab blog...made me smile!! :-)

Hi Jeanette... thanks :o)))

Lovely Blog TT, glad Conker enjoyed his visit. It looks like a very good G.C.

Hi Bob... Thank you ...
It is a lovely Garden Centre ...
...the management welcomes dogs and there is a good variety of sensibly-priced plants :o)

Sorry TT, I forgot to mention Truffle, looking full of mischief. It's good you found a GC which welcomes dogs, but yours are so well behaved they'd be mad not to welcome them.

Very pleased to see Conker endorsing my favourite make of garden tools in the very first picture. Both little guys looking very chipper and enjoying The GC visit

Very good blog TT. I was intrigued by the title haha, it was very apt. Your Conker and Truffle are so cute...

Posing so nicely for each picture! What a good companion he is for you and full of fun! Great job!

Thanks Bob, Dorjac, Richard and Poodle ...
Truffle is still very lively indeed ...
but he enjoys helping to choose plants ;o)

Conker has lots of his own plastic tools... he liked the look of the garden tools in the top pic.. but maybe they are rather large size for a Sheltie ! Lol.

Glad you like the blog title, Richard .. Conker and Truffle send you woofs and say thank you :o)

what can i say, great blog , love the stars of the show, i think conkers thinking!"never mind the rest of the cast focus on me" t.t you should write a book!

Very comical, and amusing, just lovely, where did you get that sun tho. I would like some.

Hi Patricia ... I hope you get some sun tomorrow. :o)

Thanks Ann ...
Conker does like to be in all of the photos...
.. Lol...

Great blog.

Hi Frybo .. Thank you :o)))

Arrrrr lovely pics of conker at the garden centre.... and Truffle enjoying your new plants.... : O )))

Hi Holly ... Thanks ...
Conker and Truffle enjoyed themselves so much... :o)))

What a lovely blog TT. Truffle and Conker look wonderful. Conker will be a great help in the garden with his rake. :0)x

: O )))

What a pleasure to be able to share the adventure ... always a joy to see an exceptionally well-trained sheepdog at work!!! Very nice indeed. Many thanks. Philip L

Nice to see you all enjoyed your day :o)

Like it, and the dog comes too!

Beautiful pics of the boys, Tt, they always look so happy in your blogs . . .

Brilliant! What a well behaved pooch! Great blog and pics!

Enchanting - as ever!!!!!!!!! Your boys do you credit, Terra.

Oh they do, they do!

Another wonderful blog with your lovely dogs, TT! Enjoyed it very much! I wondered what the title might imply! You do know how to get people's attention! LOL! ;-D

Thanks Sue, Philip, Hywel, Sandy, Shirley, Lulu, Wagger, and Balcony ...

Conker and Truffle very much enjoyed their day out ...

... not forgetting the sheep, who had a great time... ;o)

fabulous blog again Terra !

Hi Pip...
Thank you ...
... Conker and Truffle send hugs to Sydney :o)

Just caught up with your garden centre visit, TT, and I am still trying to work out which one is not a statue! Conker is so well behaved, bless him, a perfect poser!
I have found a garden centre that welcomes dog near here (well, fairly near) and we took Millie but I wouldn't take off her lead :)

Hi Gee ...
Nice to find Garden Centres which accept well-behaved dogs ... Conker was only off the lead while I photographed him, and when on the grassy area of the car park, which was away from other people and vehicles ...

Conker is very well behaved ... stays close to my side ...
Truffle is much more lively, when it is his turn to walk around ...Lol.... Both my dogs love their Garden Centre visits .. I hope Millie enjoys her Garden Centre trips. :o)
