Old Two Legs has a New Toy!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back with you again!

Guess what Old Two Legs got delivered yesterday?

No? Well how about this.

Still not guessed?

Yes! It's one of those hidden cameras that work both day and night to see what wild animals there are about!

As you see, we have the two Pussy Cats that think our garden belongs to them and a Holly Dog On Night Time Patrol!

And this one final one is Holly off for an early morning wee, in the daylight!

Now this is all going to be great fun 'cos OTL will be planting the camera in different parts of the garden to catch whatever is passing through. A hedgehog or snakes or Pussy Cats or even Foxes, you never know, there might be another lost ferret, or two!

Now, just how long will this lot take to upload?

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

We get the Worming Tablets!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It's that time of the year again, Worming Time!

This is where Holly and I have some great fun not swallowing our pills and instead, get loads of different 'Nibbles' that may hide a worming tablet.

Now the list can go on for ages, ice cream, cheese, Marmite sandwich, doggy chocs, ferret bits, ferret food, oh, the list just goes on and on!

Well, let's say, Holly and I have dined well today!

Daisy Spaniel's owners came back last night, so that means we have got Old Two Legs to ourselves again!

Our morning run on the beach was fun, Holly found a feather and was trying to convince me that she had eaten the chicken and all that was left was this feather, that was until I pointed out that the feather belonged to a sea gull!

I don't care, it still tasted like chicken!

 It is so funny to see the tricks that Miss Snowflake will try to get up off the beach and back into the ferret bag, then, as soon as she is back in, she wants to come out again!

I've got a sore claw, pick me up daddy!

OTL says he won't fall for her tricks though!

Now, OTL has been busy busy today, so we didn't get a chance to take any more pictures. It is getting close to what OTL calls 'End of Year Accounts' which means he has to catch up on all the paperwork and stuff he should have done in time for the end of this month!

Plus, he has to get money in and pay out money, all before the beginning of August, which he says will be the beginning of his twenty first year of trading or working for himself!

So, we will leave him to get on with everything and put our paws up and watch some TV!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Us Again!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back again!

Old Two Legs is not too happy with me this morning! You see, I got up at about three fifteen and sort of felt like I wanted a wee and as I can't open the kitchen door on my own, I stood at the bottom of the bed and did my 'IWannaWee' whine, which got OTL up and bouncing off the walls as he fell down stairs!

He opened the back door and Holly and I went for a sniff and a walk in the garden. OTL left the door open and went back to bed.

Around five, I got this irresistible urge to go out for a walk and went up to tell OTL, who was asleep at the time, catching up on the sleep he missed when I woke him earlier!

Up got OTL, and bounced off the walls as he fell down stairs, again, only to find the back door still open!

Oops! I forgot to check!

At that point OTL decided it was too dangerous to go back to bed, so he got up and showered, got dressed and put Holly and me on our lead and off we went to wake Daisy Spaniel up. Which was a bit silly really 'cos she was wide awake and ready for a walk!

Surprising enough, Holly and I would have preferred to go back to bed and we dawdled along the path until we got to the field behind the houses.

Daisy Spaniel was all 'Go Go Go' and soon was weeing for England!

Holly and I sat down and said we would just watch if you don't mind!

OTL wasn't having that, and we were put on our leads and walked all around the field, and didn't we do some showing off!

Soon Daisy was back home and enjoying some breakfast while OTL marched us back so he could get the ferrets ready for the beach!

I must say, Holly and I prefer the beach to the field 'cos you can get a good lick on!

Me and Holly getting a 'Lick On'

While OTL wasn't looking, Sneaky Miss Snowflake crawled back into the ferret bag, just until she gets off the sand!

I just don't like sand!

 Holly and I tried to get a rabbit but although we tried the 'Waiting Game' we still couldn't get close enough!

There be Rabbits!

Holly was saying that what we need is a new approach and maybe Archie Babe could give us some new idea's on Rabbit Hunting when he comes down here!

Mind you, we'll have to go hunting without the ferrets 'cos Archie Babe may mistake them for rabbits and we can't have that!

Lunchtime, after Daisy had been for her run, OTL tried some more photo's 'cos he says that Daisy is 'Photogenic', we call it dopey!

I can do Cute as well!

After she got back home and was supplied with another bowl of clean cool water, we headed off for some deliveries and then onto The Forest. On sunny days like today it is good to be under the shade of the trees and of course, there is always a chance of a squirrel!

Well, it sniffs like a squirrel to me!

Back home for a snooze before dinner of chicken, all warm and greasy!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

We manage to stay out of trouble today.

Hi There Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back with you again!

Today we have been good girls, we have stayed out of the mud and not rolled in anything smelly and we've eaten all our Ox Heart (a whole bowl full!) and no one has fallen in the pond!

Although I did have a little paddle when we went to the Riverside Park!

Miss Snowflake sort of got lost this morning. Well, not lost really, it was just that she was 'Exploring' The Missus's 'Card Room' where she stores all her glue and glitter stuff!

Miss Snowflake says it is fun finding new ways through all the stuff on the shelves!
 

Now, what's up there?

On our walk it wasn't so hot and there was a super light over the sea, of course, Old Two Legs just had to get all 'Artistic'!

Early Morning Light!

We enjoyed a mornings snoozing and at lunchtime OTL and Daisy went out for a walk. We don't go 'cos Holly and me prefer a run on the beach rather than chase the ball up and down the football field, it's  just whatever wags you tail!

Come on, get the ball out!

 OTL, being the sneaky one was holding the ball next to the lens on the camera so it looks like Daisy is looking almost directly at you, well, that was the idea!

Throw it, Don't hold it there!

 OTL says that we are going to watch a DVD tonight and Holly and I can choose which one, so, we have talked about it and we have decided on 'Babe' 'cos we like to woof at the sheep!

Bye bye for now!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles

Daisy Learns a Lesson!

Hi There Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Another fun day!

Well, we waved Bye Bye to The Missus as she drove off to Coventry for her 'Baby Sitting' duties.

She didn't get very far before Old Two Legs got a telephone call. Seems she got stuck in a big queue on the M25 and had been sitting in the car for about an hour!

She had gone into a tunnel and lost satellite signals on the Sat Nav Gizmo Thingy, well you would in a tunnel!

The side mirror on the car got whacked by a passing lorry and the glass fell out! So, that's another job she can do while she is up there. OTL has found a garage close to where she is staying and has found out that you can replace just replace the mirror, so no real problem!

Down on the beach we got into trouble, well Holly and I did!

Holly found a dead crab, on its back and sniffing really bad!

So, what did we do?

We had a roll!

Shove over, it's my turn!

 Of course, OTL went potty, jumping up and down and calling us Smelly Nelly's and how we were both in deep trouble!

Miss Snowflake got scared said it 'Wasn't Her' and asked to be picked up!

Pick me up Daddy!

 Back home and we were all too hot to bother to get in any trouble, so we crashed out and had a snooze.

Mr Brambles just loves the Freezer Pack wrapped up in a blanket and reckons it is the best thing for these hot days!

Hey Man, This Is COOOOL!

 Lunchtime came and it was really hot, in fact OTL decided that Daisy Spaniel and us could got out together to the field behind the houses, so, Daisy was running about chasing a ball while Holly and me got in some sniffing.

Then I found it, a super big squashy pile of poo that called out to be mixed with rotting crab!

I got called a Smelly Nelly again and we got marched back home!

OTL was in a quandary, put Daisy back in her house or get me washed before it all dried hard on my back!

Daisy Spaniel thought it was great to visit our house and OTL got us both in the kitchen and shut the door.

While he was filling up the sink with warm water and doggy shampoo, he let Daisy Spaniel out to investigate the garden.

The was an almighty splash and the next thing we saw was a soaking wet doggy at the back door with a very surprised look on her face!

Well, I got done first, washed all over and dried, then Daisy Spaniel got dried off and OTL even got the brush out and gave her a good brushing to get her coat looking all smooth and sleek again!

Then he took her home.

OTL said that he had enough things to worry about without standing guard over the pond!

Maybe later tonight she will be able to stay for an hour or two!

So, that's about it for today.

18:30hr


Well not quite, you see we have just got back from our afternoon walk and Daisy came with us, down to the beach and the tide is out, and she chased the ball, and then she ran into the mud, and she got very, very, very muddy, and OTL was not a 'Happy Bunny'!

So much so, Daisy was tied up in the back of the big car, but she still managed to get mud all over the place and on the roof!

OTL had to bring her in via the back gate and give her a wash down using the hose and a cloth while she was tied up to the water pipe from the gutter!

She was soaked from her nose to her tail and it all got washed and then dried off!

She has now gone home, in disgrace and is enjoying her Doggy Scoff and a drink.

I'm not sure if she will be allowed to stay with us this evening, maybe tomorrow, if she is a good girl!

See you again tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Back to Work again!

Hi Woofer Mates!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

It's been another Sunny Day and just a little warm!

Old Two Legs took Daisy Spaniel out early today 'cos he thought she would like a run in the cool of the morning, before the sun got too hot!

The ferrets got their morning Lactose Free Milk which OTL dilutes 50/50 with warm water from the kettle. They do love the milk but if they have it 'Neat' they end up doing some 'Projectile Pooing'!

The Morning Milluck!

 As soon as they are finished, OTL puts their harnesses on them and they are off to the beach!

That also means, we get an early walk as well, which was OK 'cos the tide was almost in and that means 'A Swim'!

You know, I really do enjoy an early morning dip, it sort of sets you up for the day plus washes all the grass darts out of your tail!

Just right for an Early Morning Dip!

 OTL helped by throwing a stick out into the water so I had something to chase, brilliant fun!

Look! I got the stick!

The ferrets didn't go in for a swim but instead they dug holes in the sand and investigated all the sniffs!

Miss Snowflake said that it was a shame that there were just too many Mucky Two Legs who leave all their rubbish on the beach!

Mucky Two Legs!

Back in the car, I got a good rub down to dry me off and Mr Brambles decided to have another taste of our 'Doggy Nodules' and declared that he wouldn't mind being a dog!

Not bad really, for Doggy Scoff!

Back home, OTL cleared up the ferret cage and changed all the water and filled the food bowl up, although Mr Brambles said he had a full tummy already!

Miss Snowflake said she had a good idea for a card and went off looking for some inks and a pot of emulsion paint so she could get started before she got too tired!

....or shall I try some Brayering?

Holly and I headed for bed after our breakfast and enjoyed a snooze until lunchtime when we took Daisy Spaniel out for a run before heading off to do some deliveries.

Of course, you know what deliveries mean?

Yep! A trip to The Forest!

It was a bit quaggy from the 'Deluge' we had yesterday but OTL managed to stay out of the seriously damp bits!

The afternoon has been spent watching The Missus getting all her stuff ready to take with her tomorrow. She is off for a week or so to visit 'The Boys' up in Coventry, to some 'Baby Sitting'!

The funny thing is, they are both taller than her and will be away with their mates all day!

You should see the stuff she is taking! The poor little car will be sagging in the middle with all the weight!

Still, that means we will be getting proper Doggy Food while she is away, no Doggy Scoff!

We will be able to sit of the sofa and pig out on nibbles and Chicken Fillets and Duck Strips anf Chews and Teeth Cleaning Chews that all make crumbs all over the place!

Holly and I will also be able to eat our Rawhide Chews on the sofa without getting chased up stairs by TM!

Yes, there are benefits to be had when she goes away!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Another Flash Bang Day!

A Big Hi to all our Woofer Mates!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

Wot a Sunday! Do you remember Daisy the Springer Spaniel? You know, the one we looked after when her owners went on holiday and had to leave her behind?

Well, they had to do it again, they were going to take her with them but she came into Season a couple of days before they were due to go, and, as they were going to a place where there would be 'Loads of Dogs' and at least four thousand Two Legs!

So, you see, it wouldn't have been a good idea to take her!

Daisy the Spaniel gets walked three times a day by Old Two Legs plus a Wee Wee before going to bed at night!

Because she is in season, OTL says he has to be careful in case we meet up with any Bozo Dogs like Labradors and the such to whom a 'Fertile' Daisy would be just too much to ignore!

OTL is up an hour earlier than normal and takes Daisy out, on her own, but at lunch time and afternoon, we get to go as well!

So, with three doggy's, and two ferrets to walk, but not at the same time, you can see OTL is a bit 'Occupied!'

It's working out OK, OTL is ' Organized', however, he has not taken any photo's today so you will have to forgive us, just this once!

Maybe tomorrow, if he remembers to take the camera with him!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Flash, Boom, Bang Flash!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

First of all, Mr Brambles would like to say thanks to everyone who sent him birthday greetings and cards and presents and messages!

Late in the afternoon it was really hot, I mean, horribly hot and the ferrets were saying they could do with some gentle breezes!

OTL, being sneaky, put them in the 'Show Cage' and then planted them on the patio where it was shady and cool!

Mr Brambles said it was brilliant 'cos he could check out the sniffs!

Sniffs and a cooling breeze!

 Miss Snowflake tried to get out but OTL said that was how she got lost last time, so she agreed to get back in and join Mr Brambles in sniffing!

Go on, just a little run around the garden!

 They stayed outside until it was getting dark, in fact they stayed out until it started to rain. Now, rain is OK but only when you are indoors or in the car!

This has been great, can we come in now?

We all got inside and looked out of the window and wot a show we had before bedtime!

Mr Brambles said it was the best birthday celebration he has had in years!

It started off with some very strong wind, followed by flashes of lightening and then the thunder!

Holly didn't like the thunder but she cuddled up to Old Two Legs and The Missus and it didn't seem too bad!

Of course, OTL was there with his camera and managed to take a few snaps!

 It's not really hitting the chimney!

It's not really hitting the chimney!

This is one of the Sheet Lightening that seems to light up all of the sky but with a digital camera you can see the colours!

Sheet Lightening, good or Wot?

This one was taken out the front of the house but we had to have the window shut 'cos of the rain, so, pretend you can't see the rain drops on the window!

It's behind you!

 We caught this one just as the lightening was searching for somewhere to land!

Coming into land!

 This is another one looking for a place to land!

Here we come again!

It was all exciting but I think we were really glad when it finished, well, at least we could get some sleep!

So, that's it for now, a sort of different report on our adventures!

Today we have been very lazy, snoozing, snoozing and a bit more snoozing!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Mr Brambles Birthday Today!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here again!

We all sang 'Happy Birthday' to Mr Brambles this morning, except The Missus who said she was too busy!

Boo Hissss!

You know what? She didn't even make him a card!

BOOOOO! HISSSSSSSSS!

Mr Brambles said thanks all around and had fun opening his presents. Now, Mr Brambles is a bit like Holly. Number one priority is a full tummy!

Number two priority is knowing where the next full tummy is coming from!

Mr Brambles was well pleased with the packets of Nibbles we all gave him and Miss Snowflake even gave him a pack of her favourite  'Chicken Sticks that not only taste wonderful but clean your teeth at the same time!

Holly and I gave him a pack of Ferret Nibbles that we know he loves and they also stop 'Hair Balls'!

Old Two Legs gave him a new bottle of Ferretone, all to himself but he said he would share that with Snowflake!

We were about to go out for our walk when the heavens opened up and with the accompanying Thunder and Lightening, it poured down! OTL was considering postponing the walk for an hour but after breakfast, it all cleared up and with the sun poking through the mist, off we went!

After the Rain, the Sun!

The tide was in but we all decided it was possibly just a little too rough to have a swim and not exciting enough to have a paddle, so we all went off sniffing sniffs and woofing at the other doggy's out for their walk!

It;s a bit too rough for me!

This morning we, Holly and me, went down to the vets and we got stabbed, again!

I was feeling a bit scared but when that vet stuck his head out of the consulting room and called our name, well, that was it, I snapped!

Holly was trotting towards him, so was OTL but I was Nose Down, Tail Up and all four legs rigid and skidding across the lino tiles!

I know it wasn't too painful and I know it is in my best interest and I know that OTL loves me, but.......................I HATE THE VETS!!!!!!

Back home to find the ferrets asleep, full tummies and an empty packet of Chicken Sticks!

I know they wouldn't have scoffed them all, so we reckon that they have stashed them away for later!

We all had a snooze until lunchtime when OTL had to go out 'Delivering' and he also said we would go down The Forest 'cos it's just too hot in the sunshine!

Well, that's OK by us, a trip in the big car with the air conditioning and  high up so we can woof at all the woofers walking by!

Down in The Forest it was a lot cooler than in the direct sun shine, so Holly and I got down to some serious sniffing and squirrel hunting!

I can Sniff Squirrel!

We managed to chase a few squirrels but they were up the tree trunks like a Greased Ferret!

And you know how fast a Greased Ferret can go!

Me, Squirrel Spotting!

As we came to the end of the walk we bumped into the Heeland Coos who were having a munch on the bracken.

Holly said that she could hear crunching going on but couldn't see any coos! The coos thought that was a great joke and called back that they were hiding from little dogs 'cos they were frightened!

We knew they were joking really!

Spot the Heeland Coo hiding in the bracken!

Back home the ferrets were chilled out on the cold block under the blanket and Mr Brambles was playing in the water bowl by scooping the water out with his paws!

So, there may be some more thunder and stuff tonight but we don't mind that, it's the Whizz Bangs we really don't like!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr (I'm 5 or 6 Today) Brambles.

Hot or Wot!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back with you!

Phew, wot a scorcher today! It has been Hot, Hot, Hot!

Even when we went out for our morning stroll it was warming up. The ferrets kept stopping in the shade of the bushes for a rest, Old Two Legs had to pick up Mr Brambles and carry him a couple of times 'cos he said he was too 'Wacked' to carry on!

Mind you, they have a big block of frozen stuff wrapped up in a blanket for them to fall asleep on if it gets too warm!

The tide was out, so no swimming but Holly and I managed a paddle in the mud and we even sat down on the sea weed to cool off!

Cooling me Bits, Just Cooling Me Bits!

 When we got back to the Sea Wall, OTL called us both 'Mucky Puppy's' but we didn't care!

A MK1 Mucky Puppy!

 Heading for home, I was chased by a Springer Spaniel who said that the mud on my butt sniffed 'Super' and could he have another sniff!

Well, I'm not that sort of puppy and I woofed at him and ran back to OTL to get him to protect me!

OTL! He's Chasing Me!

Back home, we settled down to some OX Heart followed by a good long snooze!

 Now at this point everything goes wrong!

First of all , OTL  and The Missus leave us to snooze while they are out shopping or something, Back they come at midday, OTL takes us out for a run around the field at the back of the house and when we get back, we're left alone again while they sneak off again!

This is not on!

Late afternoon back they come and TM has a silly grin all over her face, she has got a new iPlod Thingy and OTL looks very unhappy, his wallet just got a lot thinner!

So, there I was, all ready to sit down and do Daisy's Blog when the Internet connection crashed and stayed off for ages!

It finally came back to life again at seven thirty, so I've been busy tapping away wearing my claws out on the keyboard!

The things I do to keep you lot happy!

Tomorrow is going to be fun.

It's Mr Brambles Birthday!

Well, it's been a year since he arrived and as we didn't know his proper birthday, we decided that we would use the day he arrived here as his birthday!

Tomorrow we are going to have a big party and boogie well into the afternoon!

Sorry about the noise we will make but you have no idea just how excited these ferrets get on their birthday!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr (Boogie, Boogie) Brambles
