I'm a happy doggie

Why? Well because I have lovely peoples. I know I complains because I am NOT ALLOWED all the scrumptious things that my pals get, like scrambly eggs and chicken and dog cakes and I s'pose it's good for me *nods head in mature way*, but they are very keen on walkies. Now mostly it's the  along the road and jumping into the ditch when cars come and having to wait outside the shop walkies,

just in case you had forgotten this is how I wait

 but they do try and make it better by going onto the beach and I like it when I meets my pals.

comparing notes on sniffs with my friend

  Anyway it is not always the along the road walkies, we have other ones. On the very, very wet day we had the up to the field, down to the beach and MyPeoples getting stuck in the mud walkies.  Which was very good because I do NOT like the along the road walkies in the rain. That is when I puts my paws down. But because I am small dog MyPeoples can pick me up and carry me and then I am sooooooo embarrassed in case I am recognised that I decide wet road walkies is better.

this  is other friend but I not sure she knows what's behind her

 But back to  not road walkies.. Have you seen peoples getting paws stuck in mud?  'Tis very funny.  P'raps not so much for peoples?

We have had other walkies too. We went in car to a big water place where I had to help MyPeoples find the path and had a lovely time checking out all the new sniffs.

the big water place is called loch etive

c'mon peoples

 We found these but MyPeoples wouldn't let me play with them.

I think they have own game

And I am most of all happy because we have had lots of walkies at my best beach. And I have had ALL my favourite games. Chasing ball. Dropping ball. Digging for ball. Putting ball in sea. Putting me in sea.

with m'red ball

he shall not have  it

hehe he didn't 

I have yellow ball too

cooling off other day

when peoples not have dogs they have to make own fun by building these

It is the best thing.

And, because I am grown up and very lovely dog I have also applied for job.  And because I am very kind, generous dog I am letting you  have chance too. But only if you are dog. It is not a job for peoples.

these are dogs with jobs. 

Nearly bed time.

Yoo hoo everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Helloooooooooo! And Happy New Year to all Pups and Peoples. It's been tooooooo long.  So what have I been up to?
Well I have been away on boats to the islands of Mull, where I stayed in lovely hotel *happy pampered face* and Jura, where I was NOT ALLOWED except in the bar and had to sleep in the car *disapproving face* but MyPeoples did come and sleep with me in the morning when she was worried I'd be too cold and I was ok really but very pleased to see her.
I did have lovely times running about on the beach in Jura and up and down the corridor in MyPeoplesGreatAunty's house, specially when I found a squeaky ball there.

C'mon how cute do you want me to be?

I have been on lots of  lovely walkies around my island and on my favourite mainland beach. And  had visits from MyYoungPeoples which was lovely even if he did bring The Girl (I do like her really and she gave me one of my favourite balls)


I did some fundraising for littlePeoples

Hmmmm

and joined in with the #BTposse Christmas party to raise funds for furs.

The it was Christmas, which is nice apart from all the dressing up

no idea who the other one is

And we went to see MyPeoplesAunty which is lovely except for THIS

Asbocat

he might look cute.....

Rachelcat (RIP) was fierce and mostly made of needles and fur,  but she was SMALL.


This guy is AS BIG AS ME (at least) and his name is ASBOcat. Need I say any more?
But I still had a lovely time and great muddy walkies and MyPeoplesAunty has a great garden for zooming in so I was happy.

MyPeoplesAunty taught me how to take selfies

Now I am back home and catching up with all the sniffs.
 Tiring work.

mmmmm comfy

Ahoy me hearties!

I have been having all sorts of adventures.

Last week I went on a boat trip. The boat lived quite far from my house so we went in the car first and I had a little sleep. I was then nice and refreshed for the splashy walk to the boat and looking forward to the sea breeze in my face.

What a disappointment! Usually we are on the outside where you can sniff the sea but this boat didn't have any outside. It was just like a bus and I had to sit down on the floor by the feet! I was not impressed. There was nothing to see  and no nice sniffs. Feet! Pfft! My poor sensitive nose. And then it got really bouncy, worse than MyPeoples driving the car and I did not like it at all. Luckily MyPeoples knew I was not happy and picked me up so I could see out and I felt much better. (It was also nice being cuddled because it was just a tiny bit scary). The sea was much bigger and up around the side of the boat than I had ever seen before.

It wasn't long before we got to the place we were going which is called Jura. I have been there before and it has very good beaches; it has more deer than peoples and is famous for a book, a burning and this:

I let the knitting me try it because I do not think I would like whisky

MyPeoples granny came from Jura and the last time we were there we found the house she used to live in but it didn't look very comfy for peoples now.

this is not the house in the story

 

this is not the boat in the story

We had a cup of tea with a very nice lady who lives there (Jura, not the not-comfy house). I met some nice Diurach* dogs, played on the beach and had a swim. On our way back in the boat it was much less bouncy.

this is looking out of the boat with non bouncy sea on the way home

When we got home that night we went to the pub http://tigh-an-truish.co.uk and there were biscuits and I WAS ALLOWED *happy face*.

After that we were very busy with peoples staying and I was banished and tortured by lovely sniffs and none for me. Sometimes the peoples  said "Oh where is B........?" and asked to meet me and said "lovely dog"and other nice things *of course*; but I noticed they did not save me any sausage.

One set of peoples brought their dog which was lovely and I was on very best behaviour and polite and she was very nice dog too. We had a little play which was fun and I told her some good places for  walkies so that the could enjoy the sea.


I think that is all for now, except we found a new beach yesterday.

*that is the name for peoples and dogs from Jura in Gaelic, the spelling might not be quite right but I think it is a good try for a dog
