Sunday walk with Buster and Tyke

Yesterday Dad told me the clocks in the house were going to go forward this morning. I wasn't sure what he meant so I just nodded my head in agreement. This morning as far as I could tell all the clocks were exactly where they were before and the time on them was exactly what is always is - "Walk time".

Since it was walk time, Mum and Dad took me to one of my favourite places - my river (actually Traffy told me it was her river but I think because I'm the puppy of the house it should be all mine and so it it).

We met Buster and Tyke, a couple of Puppy boys who live round the corner, and had a great walk with them - we showed them our favourite river spaces and they let us run after their toys.

I love the river

 I had so much fun and got really, really muddy

I love mud

Traffy says that every year some strange men start to gather at the River every day and all they do is wave strange sticks at it. I'm not sure if they are called fishermen or grumpy-men - Traffy calls them both because apparently they won't throw their stick for you, no matter how much you bark to ask them,

Sleepover with Lois

Although I get to see my sister Lois at my puppy show class, I haven't really had a chance to have a good play with her since I came to look after Mum and Dad. Imagine how happy I was when Mum said she'd arranged for me to have a sleep over at Lois' - now we'd get to play.

Lois is really lucky because she has 3 puppy boys and girls to boss around whereas I just have Traffy - they all came to great me when I arrived.

"Are you going to boss us about as much as Lois?" they asked

they boys and girls saying hello

"No!" I said "Lets play", and we did.

play time! play time!

We had such a good play, I was so tired that I decided to snuggle up with my sister Lois in her bed. It was quite a tight squeeze.

"Can we snuggle up too?" asked Raffy and Jasper. "No!" we said "This bed is just for puppy girls".

go away!

I had a really nice time with my sister, I hope I can see her again soon.

Beachy Puppy girl

This weekend Traffy took me to somewhere very special - she had a quiet word with Dad and convinced him to drive us all to a place called the seaside.

I've only ever seen brown dirt down at my river but when we got there I was surprised to find that there's a yellow dirt called SAND and it's almost as much fun to dig as the regular brown stuff.

I had so much fun digging that I was completely tired out.

The beach (which according to Traffy the yellow dirt place is called) had lots of fun things to do, particularly chasing birds.

Traffy wouldn't help me catch a bird, so instead I had to find one that was just lying on the beach

Mum didn't seem too pleased that I'd found a bird - I suspect she was jealous and wanted it herself.

The water was a bit too cold for me but Traffy seemed to like it very much; perhaps when I'm a big girl too I'll decide to go in for a swim.

I had a really good time on the yellow dirt. Hopefully Mum and Dad will take me again.

After our hard day on the Beach, Traffy and I needed to snuggle down for a nice sleep.
