Hello Everyone,I am now nine months old and growing still and having so much fun though my mum does tell me off for barking too much.
I like to sit on the back of the chair and look through the window and there is just soooo much to bark at.
Here I am at the front of my house with my very best friend Dougal and I am soaking up the sun on my favorite bench.
I am an an English Cocker Spaniel with Blue Roan Sable markings, and Dougal with his lovely curly cream coat is a Cockapoo
Our mums where taking us to Cuerden Park in Preston for the day and we are just waiting to get in the car and go. They have to pack water and bowls, towels and blankets, treats and leads and it takes them ages to get ready. All we have to do is jump in the back of the car and we are ready to go.!!!
But once we got there it was wonderful and so much to do.
Doggy Paradise with lots of water and hills and fields to run and sniff in.
If you have read my stories before then you will know that I like to go swimming and today was lovely as it was not too deep ... and so need for my mum to panic
It was a lovely day and so I didn't feel cold and of course we ran around for ages meeting lots of other dogs too
On the way home it was time for us to get snuggled up in our Ruff & Tumble jackets and both of us fell asleep in the back of the car.
But once we got home ....
We have to eat our bones away from each other though so we don't squabble about them
Because for some reason whichever bone Dougal has it always seems better than the one I have and so that is the one I want !!!
We are both very tired puppies at the end of a busy day and I can't wait to go again soon
More from my mum tomorrow ...
Bye for now
Sounds like you all had a lovely day you will all sleep well tonight!!
ReplyDeleteAh that's a lovely story Christina, the dogs are having so much fun with you and your daughter. They bring so much happiness, we used to have a miniature schnauzer, we miss him so much, he has gone to heaven now. Love Anne(Liverpool).
ReplyDeleteLovely to see photos of you & Dougal. You both look like you're having so much fun.

Hi Ruby sounds as if you had a good day out.
ReplyDeleteI have a little dog who sits on the back of the arm chair
and barks at every one who go's bye especially if they have a dog
so he gets told off too.

Hello again Ruby (and Dougal too!) You are getting so big but your coloring is really beautiful. I love that you have such a good friend in Dougal and that your Mum's like to take you on adventures. It sounds like you had a ton of fun. Your bone definitely looks tasty. I wouldn't feel too bad about wanting Dougal's bone. Some things just ought to be shared but bones are tricky. I'm glad you have an understanding Mum who allows you alone time with your bone. I have two fur babies. They are both Pekingese and are half sisters. When they were younger, we couldn't feed them anything in the same room but over time they actually got used to sharing and now they eat sitting side by side. Muffy is mostly black with some white markings. Addy is the smaller one and is cream color like Dougal. They are such sweet babies but Addy was a bit of a handful. She thought she was the bigger doggie and was very bossy. Her name is short for "Addy2d" or Attitude. She has mellowed so much so maybe the day will come when you won't care if Dougal has a better bone. I look forward to hearing from you again. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteYour friend,
Sandi

Hi Christina and Ruby, sounds like both of you had a wonderful day out. I'm so glad to read about you today. I have to confess I've been feeling very sad these last few days. It brought a smile to my face reading and looking at the cute pictures. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI love to read the stories and see pictures of these two cuties. They really start my day to feel happy. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHello Ruby, it is so wonderful to read the latest update of your adventures with Dougal. It sounds like you had a lot of fun going to the park, playing and swimming. I'm sure your are very tired after such a busy day. Can't wait to see what you do next!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures of Ruby and Dougal. Feels like 2 mothers bringing their kids for a day trip. Those trips are good for the soul:-)
ReplyDeleteAwww!! Christina, that looks so much fun, bet they had an absolute ball.
ReplyDeleteI meet up twice a year for a few days away with 8 other crafty ladies (in the arty way) from all over the UK plus Saba who lives in Germany. We don't actually craft although we do talk plenty about it between eating, chatting, laughing and a bit of shopping. They have all seen my Origami Boxes and wanted to make them. We chat together every day, in the chat today beleive it or not they have all made an Origami Box over the last couple of days. Some not quite finished, others are and look amazing. They are very happy ladies. Thanks to your brilliant Tutorial.
Thank you for all your Talent and Hard Work.

Ruby, I love your queenly pose on the bench and the curly hair that Dougal has. You both have such loving moms to take you on these special outings. Sweet dreams, sweet puppies!
ReplyDeleteHi Ruby! It is great that your mum keeps us up to date with your adventures with Dougal! You had an awesome day today and I can just imagine the fun you had. Yest it is always best to have your bones separately to avoid the inevitable fights. The other bone always looks better.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to your next adventure
HI Ruby, Love to hear all about your adventures with Dougle, seems like you had a great time, keeping your Mum busy.
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you,Ruby.The look on your face while you were soaking up the sun is priceless.You are a cute English Cocker Spaniel!
ReplyDeleteThanks,Christina,for sharing these adorable photos.
