Busy August and a wonderful surprise!

Hi George and everybody!

We’ve been quiet this August because Mum and Dad have been sooo busy having guests, sending the caravan on holidays (without us!) and stuff, but I’ve been good,

guarding …

and sock sorting (Dad’s socks!)

and coming when I’m called (actually Scooby is good at that too!)

And then I had the most wonderful surprise this Bank holiday weekend!

Recognize him?

and this lovely girl?

and remember him from Sherwood Forest?

Yes … Molly, Taffy and Robbie came to my house so I could show them where I go for walks! The weather was lovely and we set off walking past the horses and through the farm yard and down the lane by the sugar beet field … I’m in front here showing everybody the way.

… and we found a brilliant puddle …

and this time even Robbie could play in it, his legs were not too short for this one. We spent a little while here, it was so refreshing.

Robbie really liked it!

and Taffy did a little U-boat impression …

And on the way back to the car Molly flushed out a pheasant – clever girl!

After the walk everybody came back to my house for Bonios and Lemon Drizzle Cake 🙂

Thanks for coming round my walk with me Molly, Taffy and Robbie. It was brilliant!

Bye for now.

August fun

Hi all,

You may remember me telling you about my friend Scooby and that she loves chasing rabbits (She just can’t help it. She spent the first 18 months of her life in kennels!)… well, here we are flushing them out. Scooby bounces as if she has springs on her legs and we manage to flush several rabbits out of the field … Mum and Mel get quite excited, hehe.

Have fun this August!

Lazy Saturday

It’s another scorcher today and it was me and Mum on our own at the river this morning. We were trundling along and I was sniffing about when I came across a really interesting smell. Even though we rarely see anybody on this walk there must be other people and dogs coming here because I found a ball!

We kicked it about a bit and eventually Mum put it in her pouch to bring home. She took loads of photos of flowers (Mum “mostly weeds, but they are pretty at this time of year”)

and I waited patiently for her to move on.

I kept dipping in the river and in one place we saw these.

We think they are river trout. On the way back to the car I kept checking that the ball was still safely in Mum’s pouch and back at home I kept it close by me … just in case.

We’re quite excited because we’re expecting a visitor this afternoon – Martin is coming to stay with us for a few days before he continues his Scotland trip. He said he’s looking forward to doing walks with me 🙂 .

Bye for now.
