I’ve Got a New Coat Arriving, a Red One 🙂



 Guess what…I love the kibble that was delivered, it’s a special one for my kidney disease. Nix is talking about a double edged sword whatever that means. Something to do with the fact that she hates kibble but is happy I’m eating…a lot 😋 She tried me with one and I spat it out. She gave me another which I ate and it was rather nice 😋 She put a small bowlful down and I ate it all and then went and ate some of my turkey mince food that Nix cooks. So this is the first week the Sainsbury’s van didn’t bring any turkey mince…Nix says we have enough in my freezer to last for ever 🙂 I’ll probably have a bit of each now and Nix says I can try it mixed together too 😋



I have a new red coat on the way so I am very excited about that. Apparently I can stand on the leg holes and then Nix just pulls it up and it zips down my back. It might be a teeny bit short but Nix checked and it’s the right size for me. It’s got a harness attached to it so you never know, once the BCJ has departed I might get to use that. Nix says it might not be strong enough if I kick off though 🫢



We have just come back from having tea next door with Indie. Nix and Jackie had tea and lemon cake, I had to make do with an old bone that Indie had discarded. I rather liked having the carpet to sleep on and apparently it was quite difficult to wake me up. 



I know when Nix mentioned that she doesn’t like me to have kibble lots of people wanted to know why. Well the reason is that it is cooked at very high temperatures which removes all the goody goodies so they then have to put all the goody goodies back in but they are only pretend ones and they can make you poorly. I wouldn’t mind but Nix would live on McDonalds filet of fish if she had her way. She can’t go near our McDonalds because she knows if she has one she’ll be there every day which definitely would not be good for her 🤣 We know lots of dogs who eat kibble and they do very well on it and this kibble is especially for my kidney disease so it looks like Nix might not have to cook my turkey mince any longer. I’ll still get the custard cream balls though 🙂


PS Nix has had an email which she thinks is a scam thingy but just in case it is genuine she thought she’d ask on here. It’s from UPS and the sender is Patricia Garniel. Don’t worry Nix hasn’t clicked on anything or given away any details.



PPS Nix is pretty useless at selfies…

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 hospital wit

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 today is

Big Boats and Little Dogs

Image
 There was a very big boat making a lot of noise when we got to the beach this morning. Nix thought that it was very interesting, me not so much. I suppose it shows just how boring Nix’s life really is.  We went down the river this afternoon. You know how Nix has always been scared of going over the bridge over the busy road. Well now she’s decided she doesn’t like going under the busy road either. I think the lockdown thingy has finally done it’s worst. She says it’s worse coming back because she can see it in the distance and knows she’s got to go under it eventually. I like it under there, it’s really noisy and you can hear the lorries above you racing along.  I like to think I took her mind off going under the bridge by perfecting another one of my annoying habits. I like to walk right behind her and when she looks over her right shoulder to make sure I’m still there I overtake her on the left. She thinks I’ve gone AWOL and starts panicking and calling me but I’m behind her all the
