Being busy in the water, on a sunny day, catching stones and splashing about.....what more could any dog want......well.... Bonnie seems to want something deep in the gorse and she's prepared to go in after it.....but I'm not!! So we move on 'up' and have some munch 😁
It's the last day of March.... already!!!..... and here we are, out in the woods and it's warm! 😁 Everybody was very busy around these fallen trees. Alfie 2 was digging into something and that brought loads of interest. Harry was chewing on a bit of bone he'd been carrying. There's no water up here unless you go through the barbed wire fence...but we're not doing that, are we Teddy...so quite a few tongues were hanging out, including Teddy's. It's a nice sniffy meander or gallop, depending on the deer and the scents 😄
Romping and rolling our way through the long grass, being bouncy in our fav peat bog 😁
Big splishy splashy romp today as it was very warm...almost....hot!! 😁 Loads of wading and wallowing......some zooming and yodelling from Raya and Bonnie. Marshall managed to get in the water and Asher didn't want to get out of the water 😁. Teddy and Brodie1 just flounce and splash about and Rita managed a paddle. Good times.
So here we are rolling around in the wood...t'was a wonder we made any forward progress 😂. Then we did some sticks and Teddy found himself a branch!! Arnie was rolling and due to the speed at which he ran to rejoin us, he fell over himself.....hahaaaha!!!! Was a good day for a good play 😁
It's a beautiful day to be back in the peat bog and didn't we all have such a good time!! The moving rug, aka, Dougie, was making the most of a sweet spot he found and it seems there were actually a number of sweet spots as Bonnie went down just a few yards further along, then Tatu, followed by Roux-ti-too-ti, Ronnie and Rita and they each went down a couple of times.... who knew that a peat bog could be sooo sweet!! 😁😁
Look at the girls wallowing in the water 😁.....okay so Teddy's in there too but he's not wallowing just quite so much....not as much as Nala, with Bonnie almost swimming and Raya getting her tummy wet. We did lots of long grass sniffy stuff before we went 'up' and everyone knows now that we do munch up there....just look at Marshall turning on his speed setting...even 'tho he's not the biggest 'foodie'!
When Teddy charged off over the dyke and barbed wire fence, after 'the deer', he wasn't thinking about how he was going to rejoin us.....as you can see, he needed rescuing!!....the look on his face was priceless. Everybody else was busy doing sticks of one sort or another or chasing about as if the deer hadn't left the wood upon our arrival!!....sooo many scents to stick noses into...hahaaa!
Today we went somewhere we haven't been in over a year......the peat bog!!!....yaaaaayy! Our usual venue has 'residents' so we went 'off road'....hahaaa!...and didn't everyone just lurve it!!! 😁😁 Bounding about with all the deer, fox and badger smells plus it's wet and squishy ......t'was heaven!! We did get caught in the hail that was chasing us but we were pretty soggy anyway...😂
We're doing the splishy splashy on a chilly day....sun's shining but the wind is a tad bitter!! Nala goes in for her fav hippo dip but Asher is trying to get her to frolick in the water and she's like...'nahhhh....I'm happy just surfin'' :D Bailey on the other hand, went for the big, bouncy, makin' waves splash! I almost tripped over Dougie doing his 'moving rug' impression....hahahaaaa. Everyone was enjoying a good snuffle. Brady started a chasey shenanigan thingy with Asher but ened up with Tatu and Teddy joining in. Asher wanted Nala to join in but she was 'hey dude, I'm chillin' :D Chillin' Tuesday!!
Starting the week off with a good romp through the woods....best place to be when the weather's a bit iffy. Brodie2 was zooming about, when he wasn't rolling in the leaves, Brodie1 was bouncing about throwing leaves up in the air, Alfie1 always finds a stick, Max had the biggest stick and Roux-ti-too-ti tried to steal it...of course!! Lots of nice bouncy romping from everybody :D :D
Well we had a bouncy, fizzy, sticky romp today and the sticky bit wasn't confined to to throwing kind..... see the second clip!! The pups found a green, stinking globby mess of water, weeds, mud and green slime which stuck to everything it touched. Yes there were shampoos and rinses and even the hose came out!!!!!
