Unfortunately, they're smaller than I want, and not cheap, and her larger ones are even more expensive, and though I'd love to commission a picture of Jasper, that would cost silly money... However, much to my surprise, my mum, an amateur artist (OK, she's sold a few), offered to paint a picture of the lad. So I'm now on the hunt for a picture of him that I love, that will go in the room (terracotta colours), and that I think Mum will be able to pull off. It's tempting to ask her just to copy this one
Sooo, I was clicking away with my phone this afternoon and though none are quite what I'm after, I thought I'd share them
Cattle on Upton Heath - they're very docile, and Jasper's pretty good at ignoring them, but I put him on a lead if we're close as sometimes he tries to get one to chase him:
I have a lot of him in stinky ponds, but it's one time he stays still for long enough to take a photo!
Soggy doggy
Drying off:
What a long tail you have...
The clay pits - there's some very steep slopes & undulations and the local youths do the most terrifying stunts on their bikes
It's just a shame they leave a ton of trash behind when they go 
Time for another cool-off:
He ran off a way over the heath after that and I could hear him going squelch, squelch, squelch... I do wish the marshiest bits weren't just before we get back to the car
