Back To Work

Last night mum and dad were getting back into their routine, ready for work.

I sat watching them make the beds and set their alarms. I know that this means we will be back into our normal routine, which is no bad thing - I need a rest!

Happy New Year BBQ breakfast

Hi everyone, hope you had a fantastic New Year, we did.

I had lots to eat, including 3 mince pies and 1 chocolate reindeer (had to gulp them quickly once seen, but tasty non the less).

With so many people in our house there was lots to see and do, fuss to have and food to try and eat. All in all, not a bad night.

The following day we had a breakfast BBQ - well, mum had the sausages and bacon cooked outside as there were so many to cook!

Then we went for a nice walk through the park down to the river and everyone got excited about a Kingfisher sitting on the bank side fishing.

I couldn't see what all the fuss was about, but enjoyed the cold sunny walk with all mum and dad's friends.

Happy New Year to all my readers xxx

I love Christmas!

OK, so I am filling you in after the event - I told you I have been busy!

I just wanted to say how much I have appreciated my pressies this year. I have had chewie shoes, new brush, lots of treats, 2 glowing lights for dark walks, tennis ball, rubber bone, raggie-pull toy and my favorite.... (though it has already gone in the bin), my squeaky snowman!!

Thanks again everyone.

Nov and Dec update

Hello everyone. I'm really sorry that I have been so lazy about keeping up with my blog. I haven't been lazy in 'real life' far from it....

After being the official mascot for my mum's half marathon in October, I had a week of pampering at my Dog Hotel whilst they sunned themselves abroad.

In mid November we visited Cornwall for a sad occasion of a funeral.

In December the whole family seemed to be rushing round buying things, cooking things and wrapping things up in pretty paper. (A major clue!!).

We have had lots of snow, though not as much as Tess in Scotland, and it has been freezing cold.

I hope to have a new friend called Amber, who lives with my mum's friend and came from the Brum Dogs home last month. I have also made friends with Doobie, a staffie / terrier cross who has moved from Cornwall and now lives with my best friend Callum (see previous blogs).

Christmas involved travelling up and down the Country to friends and family and I had a great time!! Hope you did too xx

Birmingham Half Marathon!

Hi everyone. Mum is a bit too shy to appear on my blog, so I thought I would show off her super Half Marathon medal on her behalf. It looks rather good on me, don't you think?

13.1 miles is a long way and I can only think that there must have been a big treat waiting at the end to make it all worthwhile!!

Great weekend. Great stick!

Hi Everyone,

My best human pal Callum has been to stay and we have had lots of fun playing in the garden with my toys and chasing sticks in the woods.

Callum found me this smashing stick.

As you can see, I enjoy running around with it for a while and then settle down for a good old chew!

Rest in peace dear Zak

Sadly I must tell you readers that my dearest doggie friend Zak passed away yesterday.
However, at nearly 17 years old we know that Zak had a full and happy life. He very much enjoyed his food (particularly cheese!), got very excited at EVERY 'walkies' opportunity and in his later years took great pleasure in pottering around in the garden. He was also a champion snoozer!
I will miss my pal very much, but wag my tail happily in memory of him. Bye for now Zak. xx
