"Close Encounter"

For a little dog who just loves the heat it seems Bracken is still very nervous when we light the fire. He seems a little better once all the firewood has settled down from its initial crackling but he is still treading around very cautiously He did come right in the room when he was offered a doggy chew but then scarpered out into the kitchen to eat it. May be if this bitterly cold weather continues and we light the fire more frequently he will eventually learn to enjoy it. Funny little things BT's are once they get a bee in their bonnet it stays with them for a while!
