Sofa Space

Now the seating arrangements can get...

shall we say a little crowded in my forever home.

I mean why would Mum and Dad want to sit on these,

when there is all that floor space available?

I like to relax in the sitting room and watch some TV.

Reuby she likes to chill in the conservatory.

And Bonnie well she decided that these sofa things are just the job

for unwinding on an evening.

Sometimes she will share her sofa with Mum 

but that's only if Mum can move her once she has nodded off.

Let's Talk Work

Right Dad I've been thinking.....

This work place you keep talking about and disappearing to,

Why don't I just come with you?

I could keep you company all week.

Wonder if Dad will take me now after our chat,

I'll just lay here by his work bag,

So he doesn't forget me this time!!!

Glamping???

Well this weekend Dad took me and the small Human pets James & Lucy Camping.

Not sure where Dad is going to sleep this Inn is FULL.

Once the Tent was pitched we decided to go for a walk.... a Long walk James & Lucy must have been warned as they had brought their bikes with them.

We stopped for a chat with many people along the way and Dad kept telling people what "make" I was but to be fair some even got close

"Burmese isn't it?" 

After the walk all I wanted to do was lay down even tea was a struggle.

Time for a power nap.

The next day saw us playing down by the river.

Dad was waiting for the "You've Been Framed" moment,

But I think he just likes taking my picture.

Royal Birth cont...

 News from the labour ward brought Reuben down from Bonsai Mountain on Thursday afternoon,

Where the waiting paparazzi only got this shot as the proud Dad to be rushed past. 

The rumors had started,

Was she? Wasn't she? Had she? Hasn't she? 

Yes Princess Bliss had,

 and there are lots of new Princes and Princesses in the Dolyhir Clan labour ward.  

But wait, noises were heard coming from outside,

No it couldn't be....

But it was Princess Elf had gone into labour too,

Even more Princes and Princesses now bless the Dolyhir Clan.

So from the "Northern Branch" of the Dolyhir Clan we would like to welcome the new Princes and Princesses and look forward to meeting up at the next Annual Treasure Hunt.

Love Buddy, Reuby and Honorary member Bonnie.

I wonder which Counties they will be ruling over?

Please follow the link above  to the Dolyhir Clan for continued coverage ...

Our Pot of Gold

 Look what we found at the end of our Rainbow,

Reuby.

Before you all go awwww, just take a look at this snap shot.

She does make me laugh, brains it seems is not her strong point.

But what she lacks upstairs she makes up for in Beauty.

Not a Comfort Blanket

It's my fleece I tell you!!!

Ok then it's Dad's but I'm only looking after it for him...

Well I suppose you could say we share it, yes I think thats what we'll say...

The fact that I carry it everywhere when Dad is at work is matterless,

He can have it back on weekends....What that's fair isn't it?

My Friend

Everybody this is Poppy

No she is not a cuddly toy or my dinner!!!

But a very good friend.

We often sit on the sofa to have a chat and put the world to rights.

Although most evenings she just loves to cuddle in and fall asleep.

Royal Birth

I've seen the News flash on the Telly tonight that the Royal Baby is here.....

But they have got it all wrong, I don't know why all the reporters are outside a hospital in London and who are Kate & William?

This is the News Just in!

Princess Bliss (one of my sisters) has moved into the Labour ward at Rock HQ to make final preparations for the imminent birth of the Royal litter...

But Stop the Press!!

Princess Elf (another sister of mine) is due one week later.

The Royal footman will have to find room in the Labour ward.

Prince Reuben (Reuby's Dad) the proud Father is waiting for news away from paparazzi on top of Bonsai Mountain as he surveys the land in which the new Princes and Princesses will be born.

Does this mean I should address Reuby as Princess Reuby from now on?

Stay tuned for more Breaking News

Northern BMD Club Fun Day

 Today we went to the Northern Bernese Mountain Dog Club Fun Day in Seaham,

Where I helped my Beautiful human pet Lucy get a Red rosette for coming 1st in the Junior Handling class (under 12's) and a Blue rosette too for 2nd place (under 18's). 

She was VERY happy.

Dad put me in for the Most Handsome Dog which I came 2nd, well each to their own I suppose...Dad seemed happy with blue think he thinks the judge was judging him.

Then Dad and myself introduced Reuby to the stage and we came 3rd for Best Pair,
I think the mountain goat in Reuby let us down...
But we were up against some other very good human pets

Needless to say her Ring training continues...

Time for Cuddles

Big Bud is home and everyone is in bed now

So time for a cuddle up on the sofa

Big Drinking Bowl

Look Buddy its the Biggest Drinking Bowl EVER

Birthdays

This is me at 3 weeks old at Nunnery Farm way back in April 2011

and yes thats my human pet "Dad" holding me he came to see me each week.

and here we are sharing our birthday (I was born 3 days after Dads birthday) its my 1st Dad says he was 21 will have to get Mum to check that

This year for my 2nd we went for a long walk to Captain Cooks Monument, Reuby was 7 months here

Something New

Buddy what's this?

Not sure Reuby but I'm getting my toys and moving in.

Look Budz Mum has filled it with water.

I'm not sure Reuby my toys will get wet!

I'm going to lie down wonder if it will cool me off?

Be careful Reuby I'll keep watch for shampoo bottles!

Kamikaze Sausages

What a scorcher this weekend, Dad lit the BBQ and I told Bon Bon (aka Bonnie) and Bo Bo (aka Reuby) the story about the Kamikaze sausages you know the ones that jump off  in a bid for freedom although Mum says that has something to do with the type of refreshment Dad was drinking......

Anyway we all lined up patiently waiting for the first jumper,

 With it being so hot we introduced Bonnie to the delights of ice cream but Bon Bon took one lick with the biggest tongue you have ever seen then decided just to eat it whole narrowly missing Mums fingers. 

Mum chose to relax and soak up the rays with her favorite choice of refreshment but it ran out very quickly so she had to go for a top up.........

But she was in for a shock when she returned, only keeping it warm of course.

But now Dad has gone back to work......

I miss my Buddy.

Bonnie Scotland

We took Bonnie for her first holiday a few weeks ago and she loved it all that heather to run and hide in.

 Everywhere Bonnie went Reuby wasn't far away.

Although Bonnie isn't built for speed and the only option for her when Reuby comes charging at her through the undergrowth is upwards. 

Then she runs off again teasing Bonnie to catch her if she can. 

Me I stayed back at the lodge with my human pet called Mum.

The piece and quiet was lovely.

My Bezzie mate

Remember I told you about Reuby being nearly as big as me?.....

Well I have found some evidence that shows she loves her food.

Reuby was often found asleep in her food at Rock HQ or at the milk bar (Reba)

This is my male pet (he likes to be called Dad) with Reuby on one of his many visits to Rock HQ to see her.

And she always came running up to him when he walked through the door.

We bonded straight away when she came home.

I think I've found a lifelong friend in Reuby and will always look out for her.

She is a very pretty girl, isn't she.

I'm Back Bigger than ever!!!

I'm back and a lot has changed in in 21 months, yes I'm still as good looking as ever!!!
But there has been a few changes in my household my human pets have got me a playmate......

 Everybody this is Reuby and she is now 9 months old and comes from Rock HQ too or the Dolyhir Clan for the uneducated, she is Reba & Reuben's (hence the name spelling) first daughter and is almost as big as me, but there are more changes......

This is Bonnie a 2 year old St Bernard she has only been with us for 3 months apparently she was living in a stable so my human pets said she could come and live with us, and she is bigger than me which feels a little strange, Bonnie is very loving but like Reuby not blessed in the brain department if you know what I mean.... not to worry I will try and look after them both.

There are already many tales to tell but we'll save them for another day.... tomorrow
