Yes, I think we’re in an area that requires removal of ragwort.

Puppies are like having a baby/small child—it’s why I’ve been resisting pressure from my husband to get one. (Plus I know that I would end up as the person looking after it, especially once he starts being away half the week for work.) I already have one of those in my responsibility, thanks ;)

Border collies are very intense dogs. I’m glad your husband is taking on the majority of it.
