My newest trick

Is to get on the lounge when the humans leave the room !!

I almost blend in with the cushions. They keep putting me back on the mat on the floor though cheeky buggars.I mean just coz I gained 3 kg again this week (19kg now & I am 11wks old) anyone would think I will outgrown the sharing the lounge stage. I will still share so long as they let me lay on them LOL

I have also got the sit & drop down which delights Mum into giving me more treats, though I can be stubborn in who I show it off to.

Growing rapidly

Filed under: Dogs, The Pets Page — by countrystitchin @ 7:18 am

well Boof is now 10wks old & he has DOULBED his weight from when we got him 4 wks ago. He has grown heaps & looks more like a dog than a pup now. He is now 16kgs, 18inches tall at the shoulder & 45inches from tail tip to nose tip

Since last Saturday he has been sleeping outside of a night (still with Elmo) & he spends most of the day out there playing with Denim(our 4yr old blue heeler)

He is a real goofball & loves to come in for playing & cuddles which happens often during the day & he has a big session in after tea until bed time, mind you he wont go to bed until we are going & all the lights are off. If he falls asleep on the floor & I put him out he will sook & sook to come back in if the lights & TV are still on!!

here he is enjoying a shower

and drying off on the mat afterwards.

Look at that face who could resist him?

He has 3 meals a day of pet mince & biscuits & then a treat or two when we are doing training (sit/stay/drop etc)

They were great in letting me leave them there while I had my new tattoo done, saved me another trip tomorrow as its over 50k’s one way to Geraldton.

Stitches had her stitches removed & has healed wonderfully. Not a mark to be seen.

Boof was micro chipped & had his first round of needles. He sooked when we left him & apparently sooked a bit in the time he was there. But they loved him. And well who couldnt love him? Just look at the beautiful boy

& such a hard one at that…………NOT!! Look at this spoilt buggar will you. Wonder what Boof will think when we get the fence built & he has to “rough” it outside? He was 7wks old on Friday how many more weeks until all that will fit in the bed is his head?? LOL It’s Natasha’s dolls bed BTW & I do have photos of stitches in it somewhere also. The pink laced edged sheets really does well for his manly image doesnt it :)

The latest family addition

Filed under: Dogs, The Pets Page, something other than sewing — by countrystitchin @ 2:09 pm

Meet Boof. He is a 6week old English Mastiff puppy & all ours :D :D

Master Boof

After loosing our beloved Bandit 4 months ago we weren’t going to get anymore animals BUT, isn’t there always a but?! we have wanted a large dog for ages & this young man is exactly what we wanted so opportunity knocked & well we answered! LOL

thats is paw in my hand. He towers over his siblings, the biggest in the litter. His Mum was just gorgeous with a beautiful nature & the breeder said his Dad is the same. We had a 6hr trip in the car to go get him & then another 6hrs to come home. He didnt pee in the car once! Every stop he got out & did what he had too then curled up with the kids & slept until the next stop. He slept in the bathroom lastnight & has been out for toileting today but is a BIG SOOK just wants to curl up on the mat & sleep. Bob is at work & the kids are at school so I have been giving him lots of attention & he is loving it!

Miss Stitches finds him intriguing & sneeks up to check him out while he is sleeping & then flounces off with her tail in the air. Snuggles on the other hand has decided ignorance is bliss & stays out of reach. Denim likes to play with him & so far is showing no signs of jealousy.
