I love squeaky toys

The other day, Christine came home with two new toys for us - I think one is a duck and the other is a flamingo, but who can really tell? Anyhow, as you can see, I love poking and squeezing it so that it makes the noise that bugs Richie.



I already managed to get the flamingo to stop squeaking, but it's still fun to chew on and Paisley and I play tug of war with it.

Dig dig dig!

As we have seen in past posts, I am an avid digger, as is Paisley. There was a time where I would frustrate Richie by digging holes all over the yard. Then I would cause further angst by digging in Christine's garden. But what is one to do? I am a dog after all!

So when they take us over to the school for some fun, we are encouraged to dig in the sand. Check out my awesome digging skills!

More fun in Point Roberts

We've been back down to Point Roberts a few times recently, and Richie captured some pics that I thought I'd share with you.

This is my new hideout - under the deck in the cool dirt below the patio table. Christine's dad doesn't like it when I go down there, as I have to squirm in there on my belly, and it makes it dusty - I think he's going to fix it so that I can't get under there anymore.

Here I am chilling on the grass with Christine - I normally go lie under the Rover when it is hot, and sometimes Richie or Christine will come join me.

This is one of my new favourite things in Point Roberts! It's a drinking fountain for dogs that one of their friends has on their front lawn! I love to drink right out of garden hoses, and this is much more fun!

Here's some more cuddling on the front lawn - this time with Christine's nieces, Brooklyn and Jaeda. Max is there too (in the background).

Here's one of those things that we find on the beach that Paisley and I like to roll around in, but this one was still alive, so we didn't even notice it. Richie didn't let us near it - apparently it can pinch our noses with those claws!

Huh?

Here I am catching some zzz's in one of my favourite locations. If you ever need to know where I am at any given time, this is probably one of the first places to look - the upstairs bathroom floor.

This is my comfy pose... I'm not sure why everyone seems to think this is so funny.

New doggie next door

There's a new doggie next door to us now. His name is Dexter, and he's apparently a "Jack Russell". We sometimes chase each other back and forth from opposite sides of the fence, but the other day, he was allowed to come into our yard! I tell you, he's all bark when there's a two metre fence between us, but nose-to-nose, he was pretty timid. Paisley really wanted to play with him, but she was freaking him out with that big bark of hers.

"Hey... you're on my bench."

I think Dexter was trying to keep away from Paisley, and was hiding under chairs and on my bench for a little while. After a while, he started to relax, and eventually got into it with us:

As you can see, I was better at the chase than Paisley, and cut off Dexter at the pass. I don't think he's ever had 200 lbs of Berner chasing after him before!

After a couple of chases around the yard however, we were pooped, and we were content to just hang out. I don't mind this little guy... if only he would stop barking at me from the other side of the fence!
