Oliver - 'Olly'

25/11/2024

Mum's writing about me again. A new short story for grown-ups as Mum says it's got some violence in it. Some nasty people get their comeuppance.
I wonder what part I'll get to play?
I hope it's a starring role.....

Mum said something about getting it ready for Amazon but I'm not sure I can travel that far.....In fact, I'm not going anywhere as I hate going in the car. I love my 3 beds, my kennel, my garden, treats and meals prepared.

But me starring in a new book!!! - It's all so very exciting.

Watch this space.......in the meantime, here's a picture of me turned into an NFT by a very nice man in New York. I've no idea what an NFT is but I really like what he's done with my photo.

I visited a local writing group today and thought all you dog lovers would appreciate this poem by Graham H Cawser.

It bought a tear to my eye.

Graham is a poet, writer & illustrator.

Calmest he’s ever been at the vet. Think he’s finally got used to it or maybe resigned himself to the fact that he gets an injection every month.

Why does my friend call him HRH? 👑☺️

If you ever get to NZ - this is a trip well worth doing. An experience of a lifetime.

Have you ever seen bioluminescence?

When the conditions are just right, we get the most magical experience when we head out night kayaking.

The official definition is "the emission of light be a creature" but we prefer the more magicla definition "the shimmering radiance of protozoans in tropical seas".

Tiny small creatures convert energy from the sun into beautiful radiant blue-white light that they emit when they are disturbed - by a kayak paddle for example.

It's a stunning phenomenon and one that we love to share with our guests.

That look 😁
Spinone’s - (and I’m pretty sure Olly is part Spinone) are known for having human eyes.

Setter Senior MONKEY
Vielleicht findet sich ja hier wer, der ein Herz für den tollen Rüden hat?

✴️Steckbrief
Geboren: 2015
Geschlecht: Rüde
Rasse: Englischer Setter
Größe: mittelgroß
Wartet seit:
Familientauglich: Ja
Mit Artgenossen verträglich: Ja

Charakter:
Monkey ist ein wunderbarer, lieber und verschmuster Englischer Setter, der am liebsten den ganzen Tag den Kopf an deine Brust lehnen und genießen würde. Im Rifugio zeigt er sich als relativ ruhiger Setter, was aber auch vor allem daran liegen könnte, dass er eine sehr dominante Hündin im Gehege hat. Dennoch ist er dort kein Hund, der rumflitzt wie ein Reh, sondern eher entspannt. Monkey ist verträglich mit allen Hunden, lässt sich gerne das Fell kämmen und schneiden, hat auch kein Problem damit, dass ihm die Ohren sauber gemacht oder die Krallen geschnitten werden. Leider hat Monkey Leishmaniose und vermutlich ist das der einzige Grund, wieso diesen tollen Rüden noch keiner adoptiert hat. Denn ansonsten gibt es nichts an Monkey, was nicht absolut liebenswert ist. Seine Leishmaniose ist aber unter Kontrolle und er hat keinerlei Symptome.

Some great shots of HRH (so called by Della-David Kyle) because of his regal, ‘get that for me would you?’ poses and for the way he looks at you. ❤️👑🇬🇧

Gorgeous boy
Tiny walks now so Mum has to get to the gym to get her steps in while Olly sleeps in the sunshine.

Olly enjoying life. Not walking too far.
Off to the vet next week for his monthly shot of librella.
🤞it gives him the chance for a few more steps.
He wants to go further but his poorly leg won’t let him ☹️
