I'm sooo dizzy.....

I had the best weekend making heaps of new friends. Big dogs, little dogs, fluffy dogs, I don't care, as long as they're dogs. Last week Louise took me walking and we saw two lots of humans and they had no dogs! It didn't make sense that people walk without dogs. How boring. Anyway, this weekend I had a long walk by the river in Lower Hutt, and today we went to the beach in Lyall Bay. I introduced myself to everybody as usual, but Andrew took this video of me spinning around and around and around..... he kept laughing at me and my friend.
By the way, I didn't get to keep the stick.

What a poser!

Some intelligent human decided to cut down a whole lot of pine trees at one of my walking spots. Great for testing out the agility skills, but really good for posing for pictures.

I'm an addict

I managed to sneak off with an iced-coffee in a box before anyone noticed. Lucky for me it comes with a straw so its easy to steal, and drink... yum. Where can I get more of these from?

Water water everywhere.....

I should really move to warmer climates. I have this amazing ability to find water wherever I am, and lie in it, roll in it, and then drink it. Today I did just that with my new found friend Blaze. We both got really muddy, but you can't tell on him because he's got a dark coat. Louise was complaining that the car will smell like wet dog... for some reason she doesn't appreciate it much. After all that fun, Blaze and I met another dog called Rico who is a border collie, and he kept herding us together - back into the water. Weird!

It's not easy being me

Recently in Porirua there was a terrible attack on an old dog called Lincoln. Some nasty people (Louise said I can't use the other descriptive words I wrote) had trained their pit bull dogs to fight, and Lincoln was stolen for practicing on. This happened at one of our favourite walking spots.

Well, since then... actually, not just since then but its really gotten worse now... often when I'm out for a walk (which is daily) and I come across other people with or without dogs, they look at me like I'm evil. Particularly in Porirua over the past weekend. Sometimes people pick up their dogs, or children (or both) and I hear them say horrible things about me.

But people who let their dogs play with me are amazed at how much fun I am and I make lots of people laugh with my friendly and bouncy bully behaviour.

So to those who judge me without knowing me - well, you're missing out on something special.

I thought it was winter?

It's darker earlier in the mornings and evening, but during the day its been really sunny and warm for ages. That means I get to go on lots of outings with the family. Today was no exception. But a girl needs her beauty sleep afterwards, and there's nothing like curling up on the couch with a good friend.

Getting back into shape....

It's hard work, but I"m helping Kieron get into shape. He's been on holidays at his Grandma's place, so you know what that means... he's been eating heaps.

So I have been charged as his personal trainer and will get him back into shape.

I wish he would let me go with him on his big Sunday runs. But because I spend too long talking to other dogs on the way, he gets annoyed and leaves me with Andrew while he takes off.
