Olympics 2024

 I had high hopes for winning some medals at the Olympics.

I even practiced my podium pose for when I was presented with my medals.

The training schedule had been intense but I was 

GOING FOR GOLD

Water eventing was definitely going to be my strongest event..

 But  the swimming  was "In seine"

The water was much deeper than I had anticipated and rather cold.

But I completed the event and was extremely proud of myself.

I think there will be Spa Day for me in the not too distant future......

Nice neighbours

 

Living in the countryside is great.

I have some really nice neighbours who are very polite.

Cooee, where are you?

Aaah, there you are!

Apart from catching up with my neighbours

 I also get time, in between zooming around,  to sit with my Foster Mum and watch the world go by.

She sits on the seat

While I sit on the table!

Best place to be!

You get a much better view up there, especially when you have short legs!

Spring is a busy time for me, so I had better go and  hinder  help around the garden.

Hamburger hunting

Eye spy with my little eye.....

A hamburger

😋😋😋😋😋😋

The first thing to do is steal take the hamburger and gently toss it.

Run after it with mouth open wide

Be ready to pounce and catch it

Repeat this exercise a few times to ensure it is nice and tender. 

Then sink teeth in and enjoy.

Just need some chips now....

Feeling happy.

 I believe I can fly!

Springtime. Terrier in a Trug!

 This is my first Spring with my foster family.

They are quite keen gardeners and I offered my help.

I do like to be busy.

My foster family did keep mentioning Spring so I naturally assumed that I had to spring into action.

That is exactly what I did......

Straight into the veggie trug.

Can I have a spade to dig with? 

Need to tidy up the corners 

"What do you mean?

I've got to get down!"

If you insist I have to come off the trug then I will pinch look after your gardening gloves!

I think I am really going to enjoy springing and gardening!

Toys, treats and tables!

Can I come in?

I want to tell you something and I don't like  hanging around and waiting.

You there?

I can't see you!

Oh, there you are!

I just wanted to quickly tell you about my favourite toys.

First there is my blue monster.

I love running around the garden with him in my mouth and giving him a jolly good shake.

Occasionally I stand still to have my photo taken but always prefer to be on a table.

Duck is my next best favourite toy.

After checking he is still dead, 

(he has no beak and always lays upside down with his feet in the air).

I stand up and give him a good shake as well.

When I get fed up with them I start on my Ostrich bone.

On the table, of course!

If I am not running or leaping I like to chew. 

Keeping my jaws busy makes me a very happy boy.

 I do like to be outdoors and run to find more tables to stand on and leap off!

 I have been told I am becoming less of a lunatic and I  am really trying to use my nose much more when outside. 

Sniffing out all the new smells and trying to find yummy treats.

The weather has been really sunny and it was great to be able to finally take my fleece jacket off.

This is a fun game I have just discovered.

Delving into a box with treats in it.

It's very important to get right to the bottom of the box to find the best treats.

Be back soon.

Happy New Year.

 HAPPY NEW YEAR

I had a fabulous  Christmas.

I received loads of new toys and lots of nice treats.

I had 3 huge boxes to open.

I sank my teeth into the wrapping paper and ripped it off.

I was enthusiastic and very excited.

One of my favourite toys was Mr Crab.

He is a nice toy, really tough and great to shake.

No squeaker, so I don't have an annoying noise to wind me up.

All the unwrapping and playing left me feeling very tired.

I had several naps on Christmas Day, which is apparently a miracle...for me!

Dinner was fabulous.

Special dog dinner with turkey and cranberries and vegetables.

I had so many new treats I think they will keep me really busy for a long time.

Ton of chews, treats and pates for my new Lickimats.

I was a very lucky boy.
