We spent an awful lot of time at the field over the holidays and Merlin is definitely happier when we are around a lot.
Whilst we worked in the vegetable plot, he and Toffee spent their time in the adjoining paddock and Merlin relaxed a great deal and often stood with his head over the fence watching us. He has finally learned a little about personal boundaries, although he likes to check daily in case we let things slip. A few well aimed 'blocks' puts him back where he should be and although flapping my arms like a chicken isn't the most attractive way to walk, it sure is the most effective!
Work with Merlin will continue now the children are back at school and I have a little more purpose :)
