Birthdays and little steps!

 Hello Woofers.

Daisy here.

Thank you for the kind words yesterday both OTL and TM are feeling better, not a 100% but better.

With a bit of luck they could be back to normal in a week or so!

I hope that I will be better as well. That anull squeezing has left me a little tender and I must admit as I wander around the house or out for a walk I am taking much smaller steps and I wiggle my butt more!

Those glands have a lot to answer to!

On to brighter things, today is Archie Babes twelfth birthday and we just gotta sing him our special birthday song!

Are you ready?

After eighty six..............9.............57..............86........😙

Happy Birthday Archie Babe

Birthday wishes and a rave

From all your mates come good wishes to

           and a big smelly poo!

There now, that should keep Archie going for another year!

I bet he doesn't have to take little steps like wot I do!

We had snow overnight but by the morning most of it had gone leaving soggy lumps of mud on the field

 

 Happy Birthday Archie Babe!

 

It's all happening!

Hello Woofers,

Daisy here.

It's been a right state of affairs since Christmas Time.

Somehow The Missus got blessed with a dose of Covid which knocked her over good and proper.

We didn’t know it was Covid until much later.

You know she didn't even make any cards, just sat watching TV, that must have been bad!

After a while she got better but Old Two Legs started to feel under the weather. Again, we thought it was a cold but it got worse and today we tested positive for Covid! So, that's it, OTL is feeling grotty and on top of that my butt has been rather sore and a trip down the vets was called for.

The vet man took a look at my but and declared I was in need of having my annul gland squeezed!

Couple that with an ongoing three-monthly appointment to get me glands looked at and squeezed if necessary!

You know how embarrassing it is to have your annuls squeezed?

Back home the rain came down, which later turned to snow and covered the car, but the good thing was I could go out for a walk and after a few wee's I managed a good poo!

Success!

So, unless we get snow drifts six feet deep we should be back up and woofer walking pretty soon! 

OTL is still feeling unwell but not back to normal, whatever that is!

Keep on with the pills!

 Hello Woofers.

Daisy back again.

OTL is feeling better, not back to normal but eating again and snoozing. He's not allowed out 'cos he is still a bit wobble on his paws and driving the car would be a bit dangerous to himself and others on the road!

The Missus took me out first thing and we must have missed The Lads but did meet up with Pod the Bedlington Terrier, a quick sniff, pass on sniff info and hello to Joe, Pods Two Legs!

I thought I could sniff Devo when we got out of the car but decided it was a one or two day old sniff and anyway, it was going the wrong way!

I can foresee some fun and games coming up 'cos OTL has ordered up an electric shower for the bathroom. The one we have has a 250mm overhang which means you have to be cuddling the soap dish to get the water to land on his head, that is OK but then he can't wave his paws about to wash his bits!

When it arrives and is installed, he will have at least some 'elbow room'!

Now, nature has ways around obstacles as far as birds are concerned. We have a couple of bird feeders in the garden that are just right for finches and sparrows, then along came the starlings who managed to hang on to perches to scoop out the seeds. Next came the Collared Dove who copied the starling and demonstrated that size mattered when you wanted to shove a smaller bird off the feeder. The Pidgeon was the next to learn how to hang from the feeder scattering the seed onto the ground for any of the birds not yet able to hang from the feeder.

The latest to hang from the feeder is a Jackdaw, a bit clumsy but what he didn't eat, he tossed onto the ground!

What next? A Buzzard? I bet if he landed, he would take the whole feeder off the Feeder Pole and fly off with it, pole as well!

I'm off to give OTL a cuddle, in fact I have spent most of the day giving him cuddles!

Bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy.
