Fresh From The Salon

So Bob came over to Tanglefoot today to give me a thorough scrub-up in preparation for Grannies arrival at Flat 9......

I was shaved and clipped.......

"just watch what you are clippin' Bob"

...........and washed in a big tub.........

.........Quite Right.

Day Care

I have been in Day Care full time this week. I have been having fun with My Girl Lettie (we snuggle together in a nice little cage on a sheepskin blanket) and I have been showing the MTC to Poppy The Labrador, The Slobber Monster, a Ma-hassive Alsation and I have spent some considerable time tyring to cheer up some big black scrappy terrier who never gets let out of its cage coz its such a pain in the butt.......so I am pretty exhausted........so put away the camera purlease...

......all this comfort is making me.........

 .........sleepy...........

Our Weekend

So we went off to Manchester via exactly 7 trains to see The Family Smith. Ben and Miss Sophie LOVE Dobbie and he doesn't mind them at all as they are really gorgeous kiddies - which is unsurprising as their Mother is a complete knock-out superstar.

We had a big night out in Wilmslow - check ou the fake tan (essential) - Dobbie went a bit stir crazy what with all the fun we were having (and they have Guinea Pigs!!!!!!!). I was desperate to get home to some peace and quiet but now it feels a bit too quiet. I miss my fantastic friend............

Sinking

What a bloody horrendously hot day. I sweated my way through 6 hours of endless insect bites and hayfever this morning and then spent 2 hours snoozing on the sofa (me on my back curled up on the cushions spooning dobbie flat on his back with paws in the air). We both woke up feeling pretty rubbish so I had a cold shower and took Dobs for a walk. He ran about for an hour and was looking pretty hot with his little pink tongue hanging out on the way home. We saw loads of peole and dogs looking nice-and-cool paddling about in the river just by the flat so I decided to let him cool off a bit in the water and learnt a very important lesson. Dobbie Can't Swim. It's not just poor technique - he doesn't actually move his legs - he just sank to the bottom and looked up at me (remind you of anything???) I thought it kinder to pull him straight out rather than try to get photographic evidence. I have done some research online and apparently Daschie's can swim but they often do sink "Among those that can’t swim at all or swim only with great difficulty are basset hounds, bulldogs, dachshunds, pugs, corgis, Scottish and Boston terriers and greyhounds" So for all you Dobbie Fans if you are ever walking him near water keep an eye on him coz he is definitely a sinker...............

Up on The Roof

 New Garden Cushions........
