Long time no seen

It's been a long time since I wrote anything in this blog. Over Christmas and New Year both myself and Witchy stayed at the Annelund Hundhotell when husse and matte were away Down Under for a whole month! We had a good time at doggy hotel. Witchy decided to take the role as controller - she went round all the kennels to check that all dogs were in their proper places in the afternoon after the day in the outdoor pens. She felt she needed to help Helen with that. Me, I just wanted my bisquit :-)

When we came home the neighbours bitch, Wilma, had just come into season. I sang rather loudly for a few weeks.....

Snow came at the end of January and we have now had cold weather for many weeks. It is icy and miserable outdoors (all according to matte, we don't mind).

This is us today, Matte wanted a photosession, in the snow!

and this is just me - looking good :-)

Staying at a dog hotel

Matte and husse have been away for a few days and I got to stay at Annelunds Hundhotell. Witchy had to stay with our neighbours because she had just come into season. So I had a nice quiet time on my own. Lots of other dogs to talk to and a nice big kennel all to my self. It was still very nice to see matte again though when they came to pick me up I was VERY HAPPY.
Nothing much has happened apart from that. The days are getting shorter and the grass doesn't taste as fresh anymore.

A whole lot of rain

have we had in August. We have had to stay on our towel inside the door after every walkie! It is soooo boring and Witchy especially tries to cheat and tip-toe in before she is allowed in. I try the "hide behind the curtain" trick at times.

Thursday Challenge - Blue

Roscoe is feeling a bit blue.....where is my dinner!? And I haven't seen sheep in ages, it's time to call the RSPCA I do believe. A sheepdog needs to see sheep on a regular basis. This summer it has been either too hot or too wet or the sheep have been on holiday or something. I've been trying to persuade matte to buy some sheep of our own, we have a garden, don't we! Matte keeps saying our garden is too small and we would not be allowed to keep livestock in the middle of a residential area. Hmmm, could she be right?

Wordless Wednesday

Wet,wet, wet

This morning we paddled through a stream of water out on our field. We managed to drag matte out in the pouring rain, hi hi. She got soooo wet. Me, I'm waterproof so I don't mind the rain much. Witchy was crazy, she shot across the field like a rocket, she does that quite often. We do prefer this to the extreme heat we had last week even if a little less wind would be good. These humans they don't want to go for quite as long walkies when it is bucketing down, can't understand why:-)






W, only 9 months old....

The heatwave is over

After a little less than a week with temperatures over +30 degrees centigrade we are back to more normal weather. Rain and thunder has been the state of affairs the last two days. I don't mind really, I'm weather-proof :-) Matte and husse are moaning a bit though, the don't seem to like getting soaked. Can't understand why....

We have been spending a lot of the time on the new veranda. So has husse and matte, most days they have had their morning coffee break out there.
