Had another haircut – it’s short
I don’t look too happy but that’s because dad keeps taking my photo, but was a bit shocked to not have any hair but everyone says I look very smart.

A bit of this.. a bit of that
Lots going on in the house over the past few days. Quite a few strange men and a lot of noise. My poor ears! Think the builders have been in.. and out.. and in again. A new room has magically appeared next to my bed. And the dining table has moved. I now get to sit under it while the grown-ups have their tea.
I also get to slip and slide a lot as the stuff they’ve put on the floor is slippy. And a bit noisy, too.
The good thing about it is that mum is less likely to go bonkers if I go in there with muddy feet. I hope she realises that I don’t actually know I have muddy feet unless someone tells me. Yes, I can see the paw prints too, but only AFTER they appear. No-one’s perfect.

“AND THEY CALL IT PUPPY LOVE…”
My former home is looking for help for Valentine’s Day
Sponsor rescue dog, Belle from Dogs Trust Bridgend this Valentine’s Day
Faithful, really cute and remembers to send you a Valentine’s card. No, it’s not your knight in shining armour, but Sponsor Dog Belle, from Dogs Trust Bridgend who is looking for the perfect partner this February 14th.
Just £1 a week will help provide food, bedding, affection and veterinary care for your chosen Dogs Trust sponsor dog. In return you will not only receive regular news from them in the form of letters, Valentine and Christmas cards, but also a certificate in your name and regular copies of the Dogs Trust magazine Wag!
Dogs Trust Bridgend Manager Beverley Price comments:
“Belle is a four year old West Highland White who was handed over to Dogs Trust Bridgend following a family split. Sadly, because she is very scared of other dogs and people she can’t be rehomed, however she has recently made friends with a terrier called Benji, which is a giant step for Belle.
Belle has skin allergies so needs regular medicated baths, but this isn’t a problem because she loves them. She’s a bit of a tomboy and likes getting her coat muddy especially when she’s playing football with Benji. Belle is currently undertaking her Good Citizen Bronze Award which involves lots of training – she loves it and it has really increased her confidence levels.”
Dogs Trust is the UK’s largest dog welfare charity and cares for over 16,000 stray and abandoned dogs each year through its network of 18 rehoming centres in the UK and Ireland. Although thousands of dogs are rehomed every year, a few will spend their life as permanent residents at Dogs Trust as sponsor dogs.
Sponsoring a dog is an ideal way to care for a dog, even if you can’t have one yourself. Many sponsor dogs can be visited and you can even send them special treats and gifts.
There are lots of lovely dogs to choose from so if you would like to find out more about sponsoring a rescue dog from Dogs Trust, then simply call 020 7837 0006 and set it up on the phone, or go to our website at www.sponsoradog.co.uk.

Run pussycat, run!
Because it happened a few weeks back, I can tell you all about ‘the incident’ of the dog lead and the cat. It’s only now I can talk about it (or woof about it) as it’s taken mum quite a long time to calm down about it and I didn’t want to get her started.
I love my mum but she needs to remember just one thing: I AM A DOG
And because I am a dog I do certain things – like chase cats. I love chasing cats. But the other week even I realise I took things a little too far. I chased a cat and forgot I was on a lead and mum was at the other end. The cat went under a car, I followed it, the lead broke, mum hurt her hand and I ran off.
I did come back though, with my tail between my legs. I could hear mum shouting my name. She picked me up and carried me home. She was not a happy bunny (bunnies?? I love bunnies too.. but I digress). She wouldn’t talk to me for ages.
She had to go back to the house where the car was and let them know there was a lead wrapped around their back wheel. Dog lead RIP. That was the last we saw of that one.
On the up side I now have two shiny new leads! Perhaps I meant for the old one to go

RIP black pig (don’t worry, it was only a toy)
Something funny was going on at home the other day. Mum and Dad were making a lot of noise with a lot of paper. I heard someone say Christmas… but as I’m a dog I don’t know what Christmas is. Anyway I had a new toy…a present from T. It was a black, squeaky pig and I LOVED IT! But after only 10 mins Dad took it off me.
I know I bit his ear off (it was made of plastic I heard mum say) and the squeaky bit fell out but was there really any need to chuck it in the bin???!!!! Ah well, maybe next time they’ll find me something I can’t wreck.
Oh, and thanks to nannie Margaret for the pigs’ ears. Lovely!!

Eamonn Holmes missus Ruth Langsford loves me but I am not leaving!
Dad tweeted on that twitter this morning to TV’s Eamonn Holmes who was looking for a dog for his family, he suggested getting one from the dogs trust he sent pictures of me and had this reply.
Of course I am happy in Wales but I am sure Eamonn would buy me more bones than mum & dad

I’ve had a haircut!
Well would you believe it… I’ve had my coat cut! Dad took me to a lovely lady’s house at the weekend and I came back with a lot less hair than I went with. Mum said I smelled lovely too! She doesn’t get to say that a lot these days.

Dark nights….
I’ve been at mum and dads for less than a year, so these darker evenings are something of a surprise to them. I don’t mind going out for walkies in the dark… a walk is a walk after all.. but I think they’re getting a little shorter. At least when mum takes me. I think she’s skipping bits of our usual route because it’s not well lit. Doesn’t she know that I’ll protect her if anything happens?
Keep seeing a young Parsons Russell Terrier (like muself). Friendly.
Keep seeing a lot of cats when I go out with dad. He says I nearly caught one the other day. Nearly but not quite
