My New Step Has Just Arrived 🙂



 We just got back from our walk into town and on our way back we bumped into some of our neighbours. I’m not sure why but I started to chatter and click my teeth, apparently it looks very amusing but they wouldn’t think it was so funny if it was happening to them. Other than that I’ve been very well and when we got home Nix went out of the room and when she came back I was asleep…on the sofa without the help of a step. Nix was thrilled but slightly put out as she’s just ordered a special step for me to help me jump on things and we’re waiting for it to be delivered right now. Nix is now wondering if I’ll need it but I think I will because getting in the car is a bit more difficult. It’s not very high but it drops down on the other side. Nix has put lots of vet bed to build it up but I still think I’d like a little step to help me. 





The step has just arrived and at the moment it just looks like a blob of foam rubber but Nix knows from my bed that it will expand as the day wears on. I can’t wait to try it out on the car. 





We do have some sad news and that is that we won’t be posting my blog on the Friendly Beardie Club any longer. It’s been brought to Nix’s attention that she has been a bit naughty posting photos of Christmas puddings etc and now she has to make sure that all her photos have me or a Beardie in them. Now the chances of her remembering to do that are very slim indeed so probably best not to post the blog here. You can still read it on Nix’s own page which is public on Facebook. We will of course still be on the FBC reading everyone’s posts and commenting on them.

    Thank you so much, I know it’s often very difficult to comment on here. Much easier on Facebook, ‘The Adventures of Fripp’

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
