You put your right leg in.........

Mum thought you all would like to see a pic of Sally and me doing the oaky koaky, so here it is:

I'm not sure if I like Sally or not, she keeps coming up to me and asking me to play, but I don't want to, so I'll turn my face away so I can't see her, to be honest, I hate telling you this, but she scares me, mum calls me a big wimp, but she doesn't understand, how does she know Sally's not going to do something horrid to me.

She's had to stay in since she arrived as she'd started a new course of jabs while at the Collie Trust, so we went out last weekend without her, we visited a GIANTS golf course

This is a good view, isn't it?

Sally from the alley

This is my new friend Sally, she is 19" short, she was in a dog pound in N Wales before being transferred to the Border Collie Trust

It's a funny old life, I was in a dog's home in S Wales before being transferred to the Border Collie Trust, I wonder what is it with Welsh strays and the Collie Trust that mum finds irresistible? Oh of course, it's moi! Huge Happy HANDSOME Hairy Harry, hhmmm, what is Sally then? Short ....? .....? Sally.

She kept asking me to play and charging at me with a yoghurt pot yesterday, I thought it best that I stood real still, but she still kept skidding into me, so I told her to clear off, not nastily, just mumbled under my breath that I am the boss, better not write that too big as mum and dad are really.

I've heard mum saying that she's a little angel and that she is really well behaved, but I'm still waiting to see what she's like when she gets her paws under the table, then I'll let you all know the proper truth.

Girlfriend arriving Friday 17th Aug

Firstly thank you all who voted on my poll. This is one of the nice places I shall be taking my new friend.

Last Sunday my mum and Auntie Ina (Holly and Abby's mum) took me to visit The Border Collie Trust, where I came from many walks ago. My mum had read about a 6 year old collie girl on their website that she thought I might like. The lady there went to the kennels and brought out a tiny (well I suppose anyone is small to me) collie, I liked the look of her straight away, but she's a funny colour, I heard my mum say she is sable and white and that she looked a bit like a Sheltie, I suppose us Collie crosses come in all shapes and colours.
Anyway, she come over to me and sniffed my bum, then she sniffed my nose and she wagged her tail, I thought I'd better do the same too, then we went for a walk together, and were let off our leads so we could get to know each other better. She followed me everywhere, I thought girls were meant to play 'hard to get', but I think I like her.
My Mum's eldest human who had joined us there, suddenly said something that all the other humans thought was really funny and they all started laughing, mum said it was fate and that we ought to adopt her.
It must be a human thing, but why would the sentence 'When Harry met Sally' make them all go into hysterics, I'm totally confused.

Does this mean I might be getting a friend

HHmmm, not sure what to make of this, I've just caught my mum looking on the Dogs Trust website, and muttering to my dad, 'do you think H would like a friend'

What does she mean...................? I've got loads of friends anyway, and I'm quite capable of picking my own, thank you very much!!

She's mumbling something about those poor dogs who haven't got a proper home and she reckons she's got enough love to share between ME and someone else, Huh!

What do all you who have friends, brothers or sisters think, will I get my nose pushed out, or would I be happier with a friend of my very own, I'll do a poll for your thoughts.

Oscar the Airdale RIP

One of the 1st to welcome me here There's a new star in the sky this year,
It's my best friend who I wish was here,
so I reached into the sky tonight,
I borrowed my star that shines so bright,
I brought him back into my home,
and we spent a little time alone,
in the morning he said he must be gone,
so he can shine on everyone. VH

Keep shining Oscar!

Robindog

Thought it was about time I introduced you to Robin, he’s er……….my nephew?…………..er, no, that’s not right, cos I’m adopted, so who is he? Perhaps he’s just a friend, anyway, he lives with my mums eldest human and her human partner and he lives lots and lots of big walks away in somewhere called Hampshire.

They don’t always call him Robin, they sometimes call him something else, but I won’t say what that is on here. My mum says it’s what humans call other humans when one charges another too much for something, I call him it cos he steals my toys.

I’ve told him to write a blog of his own, but he says he’s too busy cos he has to work full time at his dad’s print works during the week. I told him to sneak into the office and steal a computer (cos he’s good at stealing), but he said cos he wears a blue collar it means he’s a DOGual worker and he’s not allowed in the offices.

Nearly every weekend he goes mountain biking with his mum and dad, where he likes to jump into the big muddy puddles and roll in fox poo.

He recently had to have an operation on his throat cos he had a big lump growing, his mum and dad were really worried cos they thought it was cancer, but it was caused by a stick that had gone down his throat, he’s all better now though and still as naughty.

My mum bought him this ASBO t-shirt recently cos she says he deserves it

P.S.

I want to say thank you very much to UmeVerse for awarding me a Rockin Dog Bloger, it's an honour as I haven't been here very long.

I am giving it to all of you as you've all made me feel really welcome, but the 5 I will mention are

Pippa, Jackson, Freda, Roxie,Sammy&Andy and Ferndoggle

My weekend

I've had an exciting weekend going out in my motor First we set off to a nice place called Dovers Hill (this was me there about a month ago) where there are lots of lovely doggie sniff and lots of these white woolie things but we had to turn back because we couldn't get over the bridge at Bidford on Avonmum took me back to sit in the motor cos I don't like water, she put her wellies on and walked onto the bridge to have a look at the road the other side, but she said there was lots and lots of water there too.
So we went for a walk in a park at Evesham, but there wasn't much park to walk in cos all the water was there too
So we came back home and I had my dinner and went to sleep.

On Sunday my mum said we'll go onto the hills at a place called Bishops Cleeve my bestest place in the world, cos I can see forever and ever

I did lots and lots of exploring

and then we came home and I had my dinner and I was so so tired I went to sleep till Monday
