Auntie Sheila to the Rescue

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly back again.

Hello to Trev Cannon who has signed up as a follower, good on you Trev!

What a super day! It started out a little cloudy today but soon cleared up to let the sun out to play. Just like us, we went out with Old Two Legs to have a play on the beach at high tide.

High Tide Sniffin

It's great at High Tide 'cos all the sniffs are in one line along the beach, and, you don't get your paws all muddy!

We stopped to watch a fisherman trying to teach his worms to swim. Just as he was going to help the worm by throwing it out into the deep water, the worm jumped off the end. So the fisherman had to get another worm out of the box!

Worm has second thoughts about swimming!

We thought it was a great laugh, until Holly suggested that it would be a good way to teach me how to swim!

As I said to her................On Yer Bike Sister!

A little while later we met up with Royalty, in fact it was the Queen.

OTL took a photograph to prove it!

Red Tailed Bumblebee Queen

Not the best picture in the world but you can see her tongue dipping into the gorse flower.

When we got back Holly wanted to write a story about the Queen Bee but found that she couldn't keep awake. She said it was writers block, I reckon it was too much lunch!

Holly gets writers block, on a full stomach!

Last night OTL and The Missus went out for the evening and left us all on our own, again!

It wasn't so bad, we had the whole house to ourselves, but around ten we wanted to have a wee before going to bed. Holly was getting a little uncomfortable, then the front door opened and Auntie Sheila came in to let us into the back garden!

She is an absolute angel, so we gave her a big kiss!

Certainly saved Holly from making a mess in the kitchen!

See you tomorrow!

Luv

Daisy & Holly

Friday is Chew Day

Hello All,

D&H back again.

We love Friday's 'cos that's the day when the food man calls and brings food for Old Two Legs and The Missus and, if we have been good girls, a new Rawhide Chew for us!

After TM has packed away the food she calls us to her.

Actually, we are only just outside the kitchen door, but we must play the game!

In we charge, to be presented with a single Rawhide Chew. We both grab it and run off, side by side, up stairs to OTL's office. There we growl and grumble at each other until one of us, (normally Holly) gets the chew to herself. After a while we swap over. I'm not sure which is the best, get it first with the 'New Chew Taste' or second with the 'Soggy end chewed to perfection'.

It was a little cloudy to start off with but later when we went out delivering with OTL, the sun poked it's face through the clouds.

On the way back we stopped at the New Park again, OTL and us said 'Hello' to the 'Not Neddies'. We had to shout because they were in a small paddock away from where we saw them last time.

You know, they didn't even acknowledge us!

That's not very polite and Holly said it's well known that Not Neddies are rude really!

Then we went around to the pond there watched Billy showing off and trying to teach us some trick diving moves in the pond, he was really good!

Flying Dog!

Missed the Ball!

Holly said she could do that and went into the water up to her knees, then she declared it was too cold for her to do proper diving and came out again, what a wimp!

Too Cold For Swimming!

We found the Tee Pee and hung around looking for Indians but they must have been out chasing cowboys or a buffalo or even the 'Not Neddies'!

No Indians here!

After all that, it was home for an afternoon snooze in the office until dinner time.

More chicken for dinner tonight and some new super expensive biscuits that are supposed to clean our teeth at the same time!

What a laugh, we clean ours with our own tooth brush and toothpaste that TM got from the Doggy Shop!

See you tomorrow!

Luv

Daisy & Holly

A Woofing Good Day!

Hello Out There!

D&H back again, full of fun and mischief!

It was a bit blowy this morning, Old Two Legs took us out for our morning stroll around the 'Estate', when we turned the corner by the shops, the wind hit us straight on the muzzle! It was the bits of rain in the wind that turned us off the idea of a walk and we tried pulling backwards so we could go home again. OTL was having none of that and marched us up to the fields as normal.

It was OK after we had got onto the field, the rain stopped but the wind carried on blowing a bit, best of all, it wasn't that cold!

We got to the horses and saw then hiding against the wall on one side of the paddock, we didn't woof at them this morning, in fact we turned around and went back along the path again, we don't get caught twice!

Auntie Angela came around this morning and brought Sophie with her, they were here to splash the glue pot around again, it is just a blur of arms and glue brushes when they get going! Needless to say, The Missus was joining in and going crazy at the same time. It amazes us how they can all do that, AND, gas away at the same time!

We escaped!

OTL took us out in the car as he had some jobs to do and afterwards we went down to the New Park.

We were wandering around catching up on the sniffs when OTL shot off the path and headed across the field. We followed, thinking there might be some fun happening, when, there in front of us, standing together, were the oddest looking 'Neddies' we had ever seen!

No, we are Not Neddies!

Well, for a start, we weren't going anywhere near those things without them being on their lead and we told OTL that!

Wot The .......?

OTL said they were  Alpaca or Llama's, he thinks they are Alpaca's but he's not sure. We were not sure either and when we got closer they sort of 'Whistled' at us and stamped their foot.

Oooh!' said Holly, 'Don't they get cross quickly!'

Whistling Alpaca!

It was then that Holly cracked a joke,

'Where does Al-paca his lunch?..........Under his Llama of course!'

I swear that girls getting worse as she gets older!

See you tomorrow!

A Horse Laugh Today!

Yo Ho Woofers!

Daisy & Holly back with a report on todays fun and games.

First of all, The Missus took us out for our morning walk around the Fields.

When we go out with Old Two Legs, we go the shortest way to the field, just up the road. When TM takes us we have to walk for a greater distance on the footpath because she goes sort of anti clockwise. Well this means we get to see the horses first.

Normally we just say hello with a woof because they are across the other side of the paddock. This morning, we did our normal thing and we were let off our lead at the beginning of the footpath and we went to say 'hello' to the 'Neddies', as normal, they were across the other side of the paddock, so we woofed a 'hello' and they just turned their heads to see who was making a noise.

Holly, being Holly, decided to have some fun and ask a silly question, like, 'If horses are so clever, why do they stay locked up in the field instead of galloping all over the green fields?' or something like that.

As we were looking through the fence, we did not see another horse standing behind the tree, he cleared his throat and said 'Good Morning Ladies', good and loud!

Well I was so surprised, I took off like a rocket on legs, Holly was half way through the woof, but when the horse cleared his throat, her 'woof' sort of subsided into a small '..oof'!

She spun around, fell over onto her bottom, rolled over and shot down the path towards me!

I'm sure the horse was chuckling, but we were too far away to hear!

OTL took us out for a walk around mid morning 'cos the computer was making a funny noise and he had to get a new bit for it. While we were out he took us into the 'Doggy Shop' !

Oh, the smells in that place, must be like doggy heaven, they were wonderful!

OTL got some biscuits and some dry chicken strips, one of our most favourite snacks and while he went off to buy his computer bit, he left us in the car with a big Chicken Strip each!

Now if you want us to be all attentive and listening to every word you say................try chicken strips!


See you tomorrow!

Daisy & Holly

Guard Duty

Hello Woofers,

D&H here again.

We have been very busy today, first there was the overnight attack by 'Marauding Pussy Cats'! About two in the morning there was a crash outside the window, we reckon it was 'Hissin Chrissy' and her mates, falling off the dustbin and landing in a pile of old stuff that is due to go out for disposal. What with the noise she made and the noise we made, there was a possibility that all the street heard us.

We reckon that everyone must sleep sounder in their beds knowing we are 'On Patrol'!

We went out with OTL to watch him do some work today, we stood guard in the car and made sure no one got near his tools and stuff. We growled at the men in the yard and woofed at the crows making a noise in the trees.

We were so good at the Guarding Bit that Holly wants to put our name on the car as well. Big bold lettering, 'D&H Guarding', that should get us loads of work!

D&H Guarding!

After we had finished,  we stopped off at The Farm for a run around, we thought we heard a fox across the field and stood to listen and see if there was any more movement in the hedgerow. After a few minutes we got fed up and carried on sniffing for rabbits, the fox must have sneaked off  'cos he saw us!

Is that a Fox down there?

Remembering how I got lost yesterday, I tried to track OTL and Holly by just using my nose.

It worked!

Keeping my nose to the ground I was able to pick up OTL's scent. It's a bit hard to describe but I know it as soon as I smell it!

I can smell you!

Holly thinks that on a good day OTL smells like a mixture of Old Leather Boots, Sweaty Socks, Twigletts and Malt Whisky and Short Bread!

We don't care, as long as we get our walk and good food and a bowl of fresh cold water, he can smell of what he likes!


See you tomorrow!

Luv

Daisy & Holly

Hill Top Fun

Hello Fans!

Daisy & Holly back to see you again,

We are getting used to this missing hour, we even went to bed an hour earlier last night, mind you, Old Two Legs turning the TV and the lights off helped!

We were up good and early this morning, a couple of wet tongues in OTL's ears is an amazing wake up call! He make a sort of 'Arrgh' sound followed by a whimper as he tries to bury his head under the blanket, no chance! We follow him under the blanket and he goes so far down he falls out the bottom of the bed!

By then The Missus is awake and complaining that the bed clothes are being pulled off the bed and she wasn't ready to wake up yet. Oh Yeah? With a couple of puppies heading her way she soon changes her mind!

Works every time!

We went out with OTL delivering some stuff and then headed up to the top of the hill. We had been there once before but it was wet and muddy then, but now, it was dry and full of rabbit poo! (OK for a small chew).

Nibble some rabbit poo anyone?

 We had fun trying to run with one ear in the air but it was too difficult to do it all the time!

My right ear up!

Holly doing it as well!

We found one place that OTL said looked like the rabbit hole in 'Alice in Wonderland.

Well, we looked at what he was talking about and reckoned the rabbit must have been at least ten feet tall!

Scary Rabbit Holes!

Enough of rabbits that size and OTL messing about with the picture, if you look at it too long your brain hurts!

 We had fun running up and down the hill and at one time I got lost, so Holly woofed a couple of times to let me know where she was.

Come on Daisy!

 I must really start to use my nose to find out where OTL has wandered off to!

We are going to bed early tonight 'cos tomorrow we are going out with OTL on one of his jobs, so we have got to look after his tools!

Yeh, Guard Dogs R Us!

Bye bye for now and we will see you tomorrow.

Luv

Daisy & Holly

Seriously Lazy Sunday

Hello Woofers,

D&H back again and there is something wrong with the clocks!

Did anyone else notice that we seem to have lost a whole hour this morning? We woke up at our normal time and found that someone had nicked an hour off the clocks!

After yesterdays fun and games we decided to have a 'snoozy' day today, not too much running about, just a gentle stroll around the garden to check everything is doing what it was supposed to be doing, flowers growing, birds fighting over the seed, Blue Tits nesting and Collared Doves chasing each other around the roof tops and cats staying out of our garden!

Back in for breakfast and then off to the 'day bed' in Old Two Legs office for our normal after breakfast 'snoozett'!

Now, us puppies are highly qualified in the art of serious 'snoozing' and 'doing nothing' and that's what we have been doing. We even fell asleep during the replay of the Grand Prix motor racing that OTL and TM were watching!

We had our sun bathe in the garden and fell asleep in the sun. Then got up, went inside, had some afternoon nibbles, and fell asleep again!

Come on, your only jealous, admit it, no cleaning, ironing, cooking, car washing, washing up, nose wiping and making tea or coffee, what's wrong with a 'dogs life'!

Yep, being a puppy ain't all bad you know and we even got chicken for dinner tonight!

See you tomorrow for some new adventure!

Luv

Daisy & Holly

Happy Birthday Missus!

Hello to you all,

D&H back again!

Today is The Missus's Birthday, Holly and me were told about it when we went with Old Two Legs to buy a Birthday Card.

Well, you don't think he was going to make one did you!

Holly and me discussed what we could get her as a birthday present. Holly said she could donate an old carrot she'd finished with or maybe an old chew that tasted a bit funny. OTL said that we should have another think! So after a lot of thought last night, we decided that we would both give her a big wet lick when she woke up this morning and plenty of cuddles through the day!

That was just as well 'cos we went out to Holly's old home and there were loads of family there, we could not remember all of the names but it was great fun, loads of sausages on sticks and pork pies and chicken and other stuff we managed to mug off everyone!

First there was The Boys Mum!

Mugging #1 Too easy!

 Then we went after Abby.

Mugging #2 Piece of cake!

Next it was Ethan,a bit of a fight with this one!

Mugging #3 A bit harder this one!

 Then we ran into serious opposition here, no chance!

Mugging #4 Total Loss here!

We did spot a professional food knobbler and saw how it was supposed to be done!

The Professional at work!

As Holly said, you've got to admire the sheer artistry of her spud snaffling!

After all that, we went back to TM and managed to get some chicken for our food bowls.

Yep, you can always depend on TM, the easiest touch of them all!

Chicken Please!

So, it was a Happy Birthday to TM and we did enjoy meeting everyone and singing 'Happy Birthday'.

Now we are tired little puppies, so it's off to bed for a well earned sleep.

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

We love Friday's

Hi to you all,

D&H back again and the sun is still shining, it has been a glorious week!

We were out good and early this morning, 'cos The Missus said she had to clear the place up before Auntie Shelia arrives for some card making.

Now, I know I'm only a little puppy but I really don't understand why she has to clear the place up before making a Bigger mess making cards? Why not leave the first load of mess and do it all together when she clears up at the end of the day? Two messes but just one clear up, instead of the two messes and two clear ups.

I mean, it'll save her a whole clear up!

Come lunch time OTL shuts the office and grabs his camera and car keys, and where are we? Sitting by the front door with our lead, waiting for him!

Today we went down to the Riverside Park again! Super run about and we met a few new doggies, one little sausage dog crept up on Holly and sniffed her tail without her realising he was there!  Sneaky or wot!

Surprise!

We had another laugh later when Holly did a woof at the barge. Now as soon as she barked, she heard a bark come back, Holly is not so bright really, she thought it was another dog woofing back! So, she woofed again, and again back came the woof, so she woofed again, and so it went on!

Woof!

This carried on for some time, OTL and I were laughing at Holly but she still reckoned there was another dog there so she went around the back to see if she could see it!

Is it up there?

Of course, she was listening to her own echo bouncing off the barge! It took her some time to work it out!

As we returned to the car we saw a doggy running in and out of poles then running over a small bridge thing. Well, we couldn't work out what was happening, looked a bit daft to us!

Daft or wot!

When the dog had finished, she came out with her owner and we asked what was happening, she said it was a load of old rubbish designed to show how clever she was and how dopey the owner looked when they tried to run from one test to the other!

As Holly said, thanks, but no thanks, we'll keep OTL as he is, he looks daft enough already!

See you tomorrow!

Luv

Daisy & Holly

Sun, Sun, Sun!

Hello Everyone!

Daisy & Holly here to see you again.

A Big Hello to Jackid68, welcome to our group of Woofers, we hope you enjoy our world! 

What a wonderful day, we've been out with Old Two Legs down to the New Park after doing some deliveries. We met loads of doggies and a big Alsatian chased Holly all over the place!

Holly was running flat out but forgot to do the 'Tight Turn' trick we have been practising for such a long time. I called out to her to do it but she was just charging along in a straight line. I even tried to distract the Alsatian by running across his path but he was after Holly. He was just having fun but it worried Holly for a little while.

When we got home, we practised the 'Tight Turn' again in the garden and Holly promised to try to remember it next time!

After all that chasing around we decided that it was time for our afternoon snoozett. I wanted to sleep in my day bed, so did Holly, so we both cuddled up and had a snoozett, until OTL rattled his car keys!

An Afternoon Snoozett

That was it, a sign we were off again for another Adventure!

This time he had to pick up some stuff and after that we went to the Bird Place where OTL likes to photograph birds. However, there we not very many birds, but, boy were there rabbits!

Driving up the road we saw hundreds of rabbits! Holly and me went potty woofing at them all and they all ran away when they heard us!

We got out of the car but OTL would not let us off the lead! We could have had a wonderful time chasing them pesky rabbits, instead, all we could do was, woof, and watch them in the distance!

Let us off the lead!

Well, all we could do was sit there and wish!

Holly said that rabbits had mountains of carrots in their burrows and they would only share them with you  if you knew the magic password. 

I asked if it was like the Lord of The Rings thing, you know, Speak Friend and Enter?

Holly said it was but she didn't know the password!

I wish we could undo this lead!

We tried a few like, lettuce and carrots and cabbage but nothing happened. 

There is always next time and I know OTL will be back again with his camera, so we have more chances in the future!

See you tomorrow.

Luv

Daisy & Holly
