The perfect holiday.


Hi there

Do you like the photo of me and mummy? It was taken at Bow Wows which is a dog café, dog boutique and doggie spa. We went there on Saturday for a cup of tea and a bit of shopping. I loved having a sniff around and the lovely owner gave me a treat because I sat very nicely to have my photo taken for her Facebook page.


There were lots of goodies to buy, mummy bought me some tiddlers (small fish) and some banana and honey biscuits, but best of all, I got a new scarf all ready for the winter, don't I look gorgeous. The funny thing was, I wore my scarf for the first time to the beach because it was a bit cold and windy and my bobble kept blowing about so I thought it was a toy and kept trying to bite it. Mummy said I've got no sense of style, daddy found it hilarious because he doesn't like doggie accessories, even if they are Pompey colours.


Hey, you know I'm partial to doggie ice cream, well, can you believe there's doggie pawsecco and dog beer. Don't worry though, they're not alcoholic.



Anyway, on the subject of weather, mummy's been a bit sad because she says summer is over. I've had a wonderful summer, especially playing in the water down at the haven. I made lots of friends, doggies mostly, but I love children too, especially boys like me who like playing rufty-tufty boys games.



On Sunday, mummy, daddy and me packed away all the garden furniture and had a tidy up, mummy had to keep an eye on me because I love eating the sweepings and I'd eaten quite a lot of mud and grass the day before.



It was sad to pack all the summer things away, but soon we'll be able to go back on the beach and stop to have snacks at The Shack, yum yum. Anyway, I don't know why mummy's so sad, her and daddy are off to Spain again tomorrow. I'm staying with my brother, Bert, for a week, which will be just great, lots of walks and playing with my toys and all the things I love doing when I'm at home. The second week I'm staying with auntie Shirley. Now, don't get me wrong, I like auntie Shirley, but I prefer mine and mummy's routine. For instance, I'm not really a morning person, I like a lie-in.


Auntie Shirley has me up and round the park by 8.30 am and our walk is like a military operation, not laid back like my walks with mummy, where we like to stop and chat to people, or even sit down for a bit if it's nice and sunny. With auntie Shirley it's all quick march round the park for exactly the same amount of time each walk, and whilst I like her two Pomeranian doggies, I find, two's company, three's a crowd, so sometimes, when we're indoors I get a bit bored and go and dig up the lawn or rip her slippers up.


Still, I shouldn't moan, I'm sure the two weeks will fly by and then I can get back to being spoilt rotten.

Well, I'll see you after my holidays, must go and have a cuddle with daddy now.


Love and woofs

Hi everyone, Well, what an exciting week I've had. A doggy food manufacturer got in touch with me and asked if I would like to be part of their advertising campaign.Trouble is, I don't eat processed dog food because it's often full of nasty things like condemned beef, rancid fat and stuff surplus to human consumption like hooves, tails, testicles and ears and general sweepings from the factory floor. Like humans, what we doggies eat affects our health (and our breath and I for one don't want dog breath.) We doggies have the same digestive system as a grey wolf and grey wolves don't go to the supermarket to buy junk food, they live on prey, fruit and vegetables. I eat a raw diet just like the grey wolf, fortunately I don't have to hunt for it because mummy puts it in my bowl. I am allowed certain treats like my carrot and apple biscuits and last weekend when we went out for lunch, daddy bought me a doggy ice cream which is made from natural ingredients, ...

Hey there, Well it's a quick hello & goodbye this week as I'm very busy getting ready for my holidays. Mummy and daddy are off to Spain, so I'm going to stay with my auntie Jeanie and uncle Keith. I've been to the groomers and had myself spruced up, fortunately this time I didn't have a J Lo cut which makes my bum look big, but my hair is very short, sometimes, I wonder if mummy does it deliberately because she tells daddy that we have to have the heating on full time in case I get cold. Last Saturday, just when we thought spring had arrived, it snowed again! We were at the beach and had to take cover in a lovely café where I made friends with another Shih tzu. He was a bit aloof so I tried to act all grown up when his mummy got out the treats, but you know me, I get all excited and go a bit giddy with it. On Sunday our garden was covered in snow, I was delirious with excitement. Mummy and I played snowballs, I didn't manage to catch any becaus...

Sorry not sorry.

Hi everyone Do you like the photo of me hiding under the decking? That was taken when I was a baby and mummy says that was a sure sign of things to come. I've always been a mischievous little dog, did I tell you about the time I stuck my head through a barbed wire fence to say hello to some goats? Well, unfortunately I scratched myself on the barbed wire but I didn't cry, even though I bled a little bit. Mummy was none the wiser, but a couple of days later when she was brushing me, she became hysterical and rushed me to the vets. Apparently she thought I had a terrible growth, but the vet just laughed and told mummy "it's only a scab" which she then flicked off with her finger. Daddy wasn't quite so amused as that scab cost him sixty pounds. This week I've had a couple of accidents, the first was when I was helping daddy in the garden, we were treating the fence and I thought I'd get my face right in amongst it, I was luminous green, that to...
