Meet Derek

Hi there! After a gloomy start to the week, when the alarm clock surprised everyone at an hour we hadn't seen for a couple of weeks, everything seems back to normal. I wondered if you had met our new addition, 'Derek'. He currently props the dinning room door open and I am not allowed to touch him. We have fallen out just the once and it took needle and thread to put things right. Strangely enough he doesn't seem to be around when I am left on my own. He doesn't say much either.

Thanks for my pressies!

Hi everyone, hope you've had a smashing time Christmas week. I have done really well for presents: 4 packs of treats, 3 rubber balls, 2 raggy ropes and a folding travel water bowl (I hope you were singing along there!).

I wish you all good fun on New Year's Eve and to remember that us doggies need a quiet a spot to escape from you all when you get so lively. I have a lovely corner in the dining room, next to the radiator which is away from everyone - but close enough to keep my eye on the food, just in case!

HAPPY NEW YEAR XXX

Crumbs... it's Christmas!

Hello there!

Sorry I haven't been updating my blog lately, time seems to fly by and I am such a busy dog these days. I have had lots of visitors to stay and people to play with. This weekend my best human pal Callum came to stay and we had lots of fun. Oh, and it appears Christmas is here again.... that funny flashing tree thing has arrived rearranging the furniture and my bed to fit it in!! Still, Christmas usually means lots of goodies so I won't complain!!

Hope you all have a very Happy Christmas. xx

Lovely new bed.

Hi everyone, hope you are all well. I just wanted to show you the lovely big cushion that our nice neighbours next door sent round for me. Mum says it's a bit big really, but I disagree. It is just the right size to spread out on and snooze away these cold damp afternoons. Much appreciated.

Snow in October.

Hello there! I'm only just back from my last holiday of the year and it seems to have become winter-time already! What happened to leaf-chasing autumn then?

I do like the snow, especially when it is really deep and you can roll in it and catch snowballs. This is just a little sprinkle, but does it mean we are in for a cold snowy winter I wonder?

Windy Walks!

Hello everybody,

Just got back from a great weekend with my human friends, walking in and around Drewsteignton. It was rather windy as you can see from my picture, but it was great fun. I didn't get as much peace and quiet or sleep as I'm used to, but a few extra snacklets came my way from time to time which made up for it. Don't tell mum and dad!!

I found it at last!!!

It has been a busy couple of weeks. My owners have been in the garden whenever they have had the time; cutting back the trees and bushes and generally making more room for me to run around, lie around and sunbathe (the odd time it is sunny!). The great news is that my long lost nylabone was found under a big bush! I had completely forgotten about it since early summer when I rushed out with it to chase next door's cats. Hmmm, time for a contemplative chew!
