new friends-Jones

Hi all,
I know it's been a while but I have been busy doing nothing........to be honest my mum had been on the computer most days so I didn't get a chance....
Anyway, woof, woof, we had a great outing yesterday. My auntie Gill rang to see if we wanted to go to Kina beach with Alice and another man-dog....of course we are always up to it. And wouldn't you know it, it was Jonesie...who we had met at Kizzy and Karma's a few weeks back. He was very friendly then, coming straight into our car to greet us.....I think he remembered us...and I had a lovely time with him, Frankie as always trailed behind. And it was a fantastic long walk....wish we would do it more often. Just don't tell Karma that I enjoyed myself with another dog, he might get jealous....but hey then I don't know what he is up to in Christchurch...I heard through the grape wine that he had pleasurable walks with other girls!!! Anyway....off to see if mum share a bit of breakfast with me......woofie woof, Pebbsie

Gorgeous new outfits




Hi all,

what an exciting night we had.....Mum put on a dinner for her friend Clare, she is Karmas mum, and it was a lovely surprise to see that Karma and Kizzy came too. There was a lot of sniffing and playing going on, I can tell you. Our other friend Katja, a German shepherd, was also invited. She is a good old girl and we always have a good time together. Anyway, her Dad Dennis had been to a place far far away.....I think they call it the USA.....and on his travels he came across those most beautiful outfits for us all. They are like little Bandanas which you pull through the collar and don't we look swish in them?! (see photo!) I am now also called Sparkles... :-) and Frankie is called Checkers. Kizzy and Karma got a sort of Tiger/ Leopard outfit....gosh he did look handsome...I could have eaten him right there and then. The golden/orange colour does go very well with his beautiful shiny black fur. But I am sure he thought I looked gorgeous too.
Anyway...only 2 hours till dinner...I better do some more resting and relaxing.....only just had a run around with Katja and Frankie in the garden.
Woofie Woof, Pebbsie Sparkle

Cabin fewer

Hi all,

yawn....it's been one of those days.....mostly inside because it's still raining! But we might sneak in a little walkies around the property......looks like it's clearing a little.
But I forgot to tell you that my boyfriend ask me to come on a romantic walk with me the other day....well romantic....we ate grass together and did a lot of sniffing on Rabbit Island. Frankie and Kizzy were also there. They are just so alike.....not much drive, I'd say. Karma agreed. But it was still a lovely time out and I hope Karma's feet are okay.....after all he is getting on a bit....not that I notice though. :-) To me he is still a spring chicken! And he does smell nice to. I tried to put on some special perfume for him too. But my mum disagreed. She said horsepoo is not that great a smell....what does she know!!!!
Anyway I see dad lurking and only little drops of rain now, not buckets full...so I better be off.....
Woofie woof Pebbsie, bored!

Exciting Weekend

Hi all,

Frankie here today....and NO, I am not always sleeping.

Pebbsie told me the good news today.....we have our beloved friends Kizzy and Karma coming over tomorrow night. I bet you it will be a great party!!! Wonder if Karma is going to wear his fancy shoes?! I will post a nice video of Kizzy trying them on...it's hilarious.
And on Sunday we are all invited to some new friends for a picnic and allowed to roam on the new property. Shame Jackson and Katja aren't going to make it. So all in all a busy weekend for us socializing.
I better make sure I get enough sleep beforehand, so nighty night,
Frankie signing off
