I Ate a Starfish!

 Look if I don’t eat my breakfast some mornings that is no excuse to oversleep and go out without at least offering it to me. If this is going to happen on a regular basis then I shall feel the need to eat anything on the beach that’s going. There was a special surprise waiting for me on the beach this morning, a delicacy and my first tasting of a starfish....it was yummy. There were lots on the beach but I could only manage the one. I did have my photo taken with one of the others though. Trouble is when we got home Nix checked and found out it can be toxic. This isn’t a good thing apparently so she had to call the emergency vets and check. They didn’t seem to know but didn’t seem bothered but even so I’ve had Nix checking on me every ten minutes. I am happy to announce that there have been no lasting effects so far šŸ™‚





It hasn’t stopped raining all day so it’s been Christmas movies again. I did get Nix to play with me for a while but we both got bored really quickly. She is dozing in front of the TV and I am going for a long sleep in the spare room...Nix left the door open and there are no towels on the bed in there šŸ¤£





A week tomorrow I shall be eleven so I’m just thinking about what Nix should get me for my birthday. I am of course a dog who has everything so I’m finding it quite hard to think of things. If you have any ideas you could tell Nix, I expect she will want to get me lots of things. Do you know that when I was seven and my kidneys went wrong the mean vet at the hospital told Nix I wouldn’t be around much after I was 9.  Nix was very upset and decided that when I made it to eleven she was going to take a bucket of iced water and tip it over that vet’s head. Apparently humans were doing that to each other and themselves at the time  because there was a horrible disease and it was to make people more aware of it. I don’t think she will actually do it, maybe when I get to thirteen šŸ¤£

Everything You Wanted to Know About Fripp

Image
My name is Fripp aka The Fripster, I am a Bearded Collie and I came to live with Nix when I was two years old.  I spent the first two years of my life living in Monaco but my owners couldn’t keep me because they were working long hours. Even though Nix lives in the UK she saw me and wanted me, naturally, and so my breeder brought me to the UK when she was visiting Crufts. Nix says she had no idea what she was letting herself in for and if I hadn’t come all the way from France she’d have sent me straight back the next day. She said I was completely untrained, tried to kill the cat and had separation anxiety so bad I would knock her over rather than let her get to the front door. None of this is true of course.  Nix and I have lived in perfect harmony for the last eight years even though she might say different. I got very sick when I was seven with an autoimmune disease called IMTP but I recovered from that even though I was bald for a while. Then a year later I ended up in hos...

Too Much Noisy Rain

Image
 Last night it started to rain, a lot, and as you know I do not like it when it rains, it scares me. I don’t mind it when I’m out on my walk as you can see from my photos but I don’t like it when I’m inside. I just couldn’t help myself, I had to get off the bed and start digging. Nix was very understanding for once but she does try to get me back on the bed. In the end I gave up and got on the bed and was just drifting off when there was this really loud scary noise. Nix said it sounded like a very loud demented dalek whatever that is...it was very scary and made me and Nix really jump. Turned out to be something to do with her phone and the battery going...is it too much to ask that she keep a check on these things, nearly gave me a heart attack.  It hasn’t stopped raining all day so there are only photos of me wet. I didn’t stay wet for long, I blotted myself off on the sofa first and then Nix’s bed. She thought there were towels on it but I’d dug them all up. The best news ...

Apparently I’m Always in the Way

Image
So Nix doesn’t understand why I am always behind her, she said it’s starting to annoy her apart from being very dangerous. She says if she falls over me and breaks her hip who’s going to look after me. Have you seen her hips, it’d take a sledgehammer to break one of those. Anyway she keeps saying there’s only one way out of the bungalow so I don’t need to follow her around everywhere. That’s not strictly true because there are doors at the back and a door at the side. She could escape without me through any of those...I must be vigilant at all times. So now she has settled down to finish getting my blog into print and it really is painful to watch. She says it takes twelve taps on the iPad to add one photograph on one day of the blog. She also says if there are thirty days in the month that will take her 360 taps. She’s got six months left to do... I shouldn’t hold your breath for this blog if I was you.  There will of course be a quicker way to do it which she will discover next y...
