Jumping in cars

I’m rather hesitant about cars, I just don’t connect with them. But recently I have learnt how to jump into the car after going for a walk. I know that I am an expert jumper and this is an easy task for me, but I have been training my humans to give me a biscuit when I do this.

Gower

I had a holiday recently in Wales. It was very good fun, lots of walks and also got to meet some members of my extended family who I had good fun playing with.

Here is a photo of me looking at Arthur’s Stone, which is a prehistoric grave.

Beatrix Potter

Did you know that Beatrix Potter was a fan of Border Terriers??

I was browsing the collections of the V&A (as is the right of a dog to do), and came across the fact that they have a photograph of Beatrix Potter sitting next to a Border Terrier and and … feeding him!! Unfortunately there is no image on the website, but I have it on good authority that this is an accurate description of the photograph. Perhaps I will visit the V&A and request that I can view the photo. I’m sure that dogs are allowed in museums.

Cuddles

I am available for cuddles if you don’t mind me licking your face!!

 

Holiday… perhaps?

When I go on holiday I always take the same bag with me. So when it comes out the cupboard I start to feel excited that a holiday is on its way! This happened this week… but instead of a holiday they were just using my bag to carry stuff. I feel very disappointed.

Steam trains

I think people might be beginning to think that I am a trainspotter! It’s not true! But I like to get around the countryside by different ways and means. So here is a photo of me waiting for a steam train.

 

Waiting patiently

Bicycles

I had a visitor the other week… They came by bike! I have to say that I am deeply suspicious of this contraption. When they arrived at the door, I stuck my nose out to see what it was, but kept my hind legs firmly to the ground and in the house.

What do other doggies think of bicycles?

Dogs and cats

I'm disappointed there is glass in the way!

Shade!

Visitor

I had a visitor at the weekend. She came to play with me especially. So it meant that I got to have morning cuddles this weekend and someone to throw a toy for me to chase.

She took me for a run and we went to the University. This is a lot further to run than I normally go and we went at a cracking pace. When we got back I was panting a lot! But I soon recovered and wanted to play even more!
