Holidays

My human and I have been on our holidays.  I've been staying with my superior human and their superior beings and have had a brilliant time!  I think my human should get another superior being so I can run around and play fight all day long.  I don't think my human will do that until we live in a different house but I can keep my paws crossed.  My human went to visit her parents and I think she had a good time.

It has been very hot this week, too hot to get up to much mischief.  I did have a sore eye and my superior human thought I might have to go and see the vet but it got better by itself.  I like going to the vet, lots of pats, hugs and treats in there.  I always get told I'm such a lovely good boy, but I do know that already!

Wet Wet Wet

I'm not referring to my human's terrible taste in music but the weather outside.  It is so wet at the moment and there have been these strange loud noises in the sky and flashing lights too.  I know it's not fireworks -- I love watching fireworks with all their pretty colours and shapes, so I'm not too sure what these recent bangs are.  Anyway, when the flashes and bangs come so does the rain and lots of it.

Me and superior human and the other superior beings have been soaked every single day and when I've been out with my human we've been soaked too.  I don't really like rain but I do like walks so I put up with being wet.  My human says I'm funny because I love going in rivers and puddles so she doesn't understand why I'm not keen on rain.  I can't explain it, it's just different.

What A Year

Soon I will have been living with my human for a whole year and I still love being here.  Loads of things have been going on so I'll try to think about it and tell you all about it.

The superior human was looking after me quite a lot because my human was having to go to hospital every day to get something she called "radiotherapy".  I'm not sure what that is but it made her feel really ill so I stayed with the superior human for a little while so my human could get better.  She is still not well but she's getting better.  The superior human takes me for walks most days with other superior beings and I have a brilliant time rolling around in the wet grass and jumping into rivers.  The other superior beings play chase with me which is great fun - we're all really good friends now.

My human has been taking me on new walks up into the hills and forests.  I love going up there because I can chase rabbits and squirrels and scare the pigeons so they flap away into the sky.  One day I scared a pheasant and it scared me back but that was at the beach.  The beach is a strange place to go, it's got this stuff called sand and when I run on it my paws get all covered with it.  Then when I pick up my ball my nose and chin get sand on them too.  My human and one of the visitor humans had to get me clean after that because I was nervous of the waves coming towards me and I wouldn't go in the water.  My human called me a "silly beastie" for running towards the waves then running away again.  I smiled when she said that.

I can't think of anything else to tell you all about.  I'll try and write here more often.
