My little cousins

When I was small, I was just as cute as them ..... only a little bit more sleepy.

Happy new year

Sorry I have not been in touch such a long time.... Mummy was moving her office so I had to help out. How about visiting a dentist first thing in the new year? My friend Bobby did - I prefer my daily dose of 'chewies' though.

Merry Xmass to all my fans!

Merry Xmas everybody! I hope you have fun, joy and laughter and lots and lots of goodies and prezzies....

My Mummy and Daddy are staying home this year - credit crunch they say.... but on the bright side, I hope to see my Auntie Pamela and few other Aunties and Auncles.
And I look forward to opening my prezzies, too.

WEEKEND PARTY AFTERMATH

This is me sleeping off that big, special dinner.....
Last weekend we visitied Uncle Roy and Auntie Leanne in Swindon. They also have a little doggy like me (well, almost, she is a Yorkie actually). I had great fun there.
Auntie Leanne fed me all the goodies that my Mummy does not allow me - sausages, bacon, meat - yummy. I was so happy with their hospitality that I did not want to go home, but I had to.....
Bella, the Yorkie, was not very impressed with me. She was very jelous if her Mummy and Daddy stroked me and I was jelous if my Mummy and Daddy played with her. Agh.....
I guess Bella and I will never be good friends; she is sweet little Yorkie, while I am a bit of a hooligan .... so we just do not mix. However, we were pleasant enough to each other and I do hope to see her soon. Maybe she could help me chasing squirells in our garden.....
When we got back, my belly was so full that I could not eat anything for next 24 hours - not even an apple.

My Birth Day

I had a wonderful Birth day party yesterday. Auntie Pamela bought me a lovely new jumper from Harrods, presented in in a beautiful box. See my picture below.
Mummy and Daddy also bought me a jumper - a nice fluffy one, so I feel like a real lady. I was also allowed a little pudding and a big bone from the butcher. I wish I had B'day every day............

Auntie Pamela's Birth Day

Today is my favourite Auntie's Birth day!
Happy Birth day Auntie Pamela, love you lots and I hope to see you soon.
Woof – woof
Pumps
And believe it or not, my B’day is tomorrow. I am going to be 7 years old. And it frightens me to think that next year I am going to be older than my Mummy and Daddy and older than all my Uncles & Aunties…. Ugh…
Anyway, Mummy and Daddy are throwing a party for me this weekend and I think they will invite many of my doggy friends. That should be fun. Some of them are real characters – I thought I should share some of their ‘secrets’ with you…. Don’t tell them please - they may not turn up for my B’day bash, after all…
These are the 'Three Sleepies' - my best frieds; like me, they all love a good sleep .....
And here is the rest of the crowd....

Hi everybody - long time no speak. I've been very busy helping my Daddy to renovate the house. We are getting there but still lots to do.

I found this joke on a website and I thought I should share it with you. I hope you like it.

Three Dogs...and a Collie

The Taco Bell Chihuahua, a Doberman and a Bull dog are in a doggie bar having a drink when a very nice looking female Collie comes up to them and says, "Whoever can say 'liver' and 'cheese' in a sentence can be my top dog."

So the Doberman says, "I love liver and cheese."

The Collie says, "Sorry, that's not good enough."

The Bull dog says, "I'll have some liver and cheese, please."

She says, "Sorry, that's not creative enough."

Finally the Chihuahua says, "Liver alone......cheese mine."

woof-ha, woof-ha ..... what a clever little dog....(or should I say top dog)

FOR A LAUGH - A CAT OR A DOG? PLEASE READ TO THE END!

If you want someone who will eat whatever you put in front of him and never say its not quite as good as his mothers

...then buy a dog.

If you want someone always willing to go out, at any hour, for as long and wherever you want ...

...then buy a dog.

If you want someone who will never touch the remote, doesn't care about football, and can sit next to you as you watch romantic movies

...then buy a dog.

If you want someone who is content to get on your bed just to warm your feet and whom you can push off if he snores

...then buy a dog !

If you want someone who never criticizes what you do, doesn't care if you are pretty or ugly, fat or thin, young or old, who acts as if every word you say is especially worthy of listening to, and loves you unconditionally, perpetually ..

...then buy a dog.

BUT , on the other hand, if you want someone who will never come when you call, ignores you totally when you come home, leaves hair all over the place, walks all over you, runs around all night and only comes home to eat and sleep, and acts as if your entire existence is solely to ensure his happiness ..

..

.

...then buy a cat!

About dogs - I guess that includes me?

Sorry guys, I have not written anything for a long time. My mummy and daddy went off to Sicily and I stayed with my untie Pamela in Marble Arch. She spoilt me rotten, as usual, but on this occasion she overfed me and I looked like a ‘dumpling’, according to my mummy. I was put on a diet of horrible, unappetizing dog biscuits and I was not allowed to have any coconuts, cashews or sharon fruit….my mouth is dribbling at the thought of these goodies….

Today I decided to look at the history of us ‘canine rats’ as my uncle Ali calls us. These are some extracts from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog

The domestic dog has been (and continues to be) one of the most widely-kept working and companion animals in human history, as well as being a food source in some cultures (ouch!). There are estimated to be 400 million dogs in the world.[1]

The dog has developed into hundreds of varied breeds. Height measured to the withers ranges from a few inches in the Chihuahua to a few feet in the Great Dane; color varies from white through grays (usually called blue) to black, and browns from light (tan) to dark ("red" or "chocolate") in a wide variation of patterns; and, coats can be very short to many centimeters long, from coarse hair to something akin to wool, straight or curly, or smooth.[2]

Origins

Based on DNA evidence, the wolf ancestors of modern dogs diverged from other wolves about 100,000 years ago,[6][7] and dogs were domesticated from those wolf ancestors about 15,000 years ago.[8] This date would make dogs the first species to be domesticated by humans.

Evidence suggests that dogs were first domesticated in East Asia, possibly China,[9] and some of the peoples who entered North America took dogs with them from Asia.[9]

As humans migrated around the planet a variety of dog forms migrated with them. The agricultural revolution and subsequent urban revolution led to an increase in the dog population and a demand for specialization. These circumstances would provide the opportunity for selective breeding to create specialized working dogs and pets. (I guess that includes me).

YOU WOULD NEVER GUESS WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO MY DADDY!

This is his story:
It happened this morning. I got the hoover out to do some cleaning. For once the sun is shining and it is a bit warmish, so I thought I would open the door wide and get some air circulating around here.
THEN, he just wandered in, no hallo, nothing.... and THEN started to help himself to my food leftovers! I was so shocked.
I carefully walked out onto the balcony (I didn’t want a confrontation in case of trouble) but I managed to get the camera and take a couple of pics when he wasn’t looking.
Anyway, after about 15 minutes he buggered off, completely ignoring me.

MUMMY'S STUDENTS!

I think I've told you that my Mummy owns a nutrition college; that's why she comes home all stressed out and sends me into my 'naughty corner' for every minor offense (minor by my standards, anyway).
I think I now know why she is so stressed out ..... just have a look at this bunch of unruly students.... Wouldn't you be stressed out?

WARNING TO ALL DOG OWNERS!!

My uncle Ali has sent me this - frightening....

The State Highway Patrol in conjunction with the FBI has issued a warning advising all dog owners to keep their dogs indoors until further notice. Dogs are being picked off one at a time on an almost continual basis throughout the city.

They are falling in great numbers. Police in the city advise all dog owners not to walk their dogs - KEEP THEM INDOORS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!

I better stick close to my Mummy!
