Donkey Encounter.

So in the last post I mentioned that I was at the pet expo and got to meet many different animals.
My favourite were the donkeys! Dad managed to caputure a picture of my encounter with them and here it is:

My new buddies!

They were so cool! 

Have any of you ever met any cool animals? I'd love to hear if you have :)

Happy Mushing!

Pet Expo

Sorry for the lack of blog updates recently. As I said in the previous post I've been busy helping mum with her online store, I say helping, I mean testing the treats out! It's an important job you know :D

Well last weekend was a busy one for us. The dog adventure club that we are in had a stand at the Pet Expo in Dublin. So we were there for the whole weekend representing the club and handing out leaflets and taking part in demos. I got to wear my backpack and carry leaflets in it, here's a picture of me hard at work!

 

I know, I could be a model for Ruff Wear backpacks right? :D

I got so many rubs over the weekend and so many treats! It's pretty tiring being this cute hee hee. Myself and Mum and also took part in one of the clubs demos, we demonstrated canicross running, where the doggy, ( me) is hooked up to a human (mum), using a waist belt and a bungee line and you go for a run. We had to run through some barrels and then back to the finish line. It was alot of fun and as you can see from my expression, I really enjoyed it! 

Lol mum looked like she enjoyed it too! 
Edit: Look very closely and you will see me in the background too, on the barrel to the left! hee hee

It wasn't just dogs at the pet expo, I got to encounter lots of other animals! Had a run in with a pigeon, saw an eagle, ponies, donkeys, tarantulas, bunnies and ferrets, just to name a few! All in all a great weekend was had and after all my hard work representing Tails 'n' Trails was done, I got to relax and watch a demo.

Pretty in Pink

Summertime.

Well summer is officially here! We've been getting some really sunny weather for the last while. Mum doesn't like it, she misses the snow. I don't mind it so much as it means I get to share some ice cream with mum & dad :D

Mmm ice cream...

The nice weather has also meant that the grass in the fields where we walk has gotten super tall, taller than me in some parts! Lots of buttercups have appeared too and tehy keep turning my head and nose yellow when I dive in them!

Here's a pic mum took of me today in the buttercups :)

I hope everyone is enjoining their summer so far!

Help Find Murphy!

It's been ages since I last posted as we've been super busy here and not had time to blog! This is a very special blog.

We need help in spreading the word about Murphy, a Northern Inuit who has gone missing in Leicestershire, United Kingdom. His breeder is a lady who is in our mushing club and is frantic with worry. Please spread the word! Here is Murphy's story:

Murphy went missing from the Somerby area of Leicestershire around 2am Friday 28th May. He is a 2 year old black gold and red entire male Northern Inuit Dog with a distinctive kink to the right end of his tail, making it very curly. He's new to the area (24/05/10) and UK having arrived with his breeder from Ireland where he's been at her kennels since a newborn pup. The next chapter of Murphy's life is to become a family pet. He was finding adapting to a house strange still and wasn't generally settling easily for sleep. On return from a walk he twisted away on approach to home well before our path, managed to slip his lead, likely twisting collar 'd' ring against lead clip and 'springing it'. I was able to be near to him four times before he took off again, the last time at considerable pace.I then lost sight of him completely. He was circling rather than covering huge distance at that time hopefully indicating that he has not ultimately travelled a long distance but is rather hiding nearby. Of course he may now have travelled some distance. Murphy is not micro-chipped/tattooed but is hopefully still wearing his collar (brown/ gold check) and tag (multi-coloured metal disc with home and vet contact details). I am truly hoping he will seek the company of other dogs and/or a bitch in season seeing as he's used to a pack and is entire.

All agencies have been informed, local community and farmers (who are landowners of some 15 miles perimeter of the village) on high alert with a special request to check outbuildings and extensive searching, day and night, continues with expert help and dogs, both in larger group and smaller splinter groups who stay in contact with each other. Posters and fliers are out everywhere. This was all put in place asap on the day he went missing.

Murphy may be nervous around strangers, if you have any sightings of him please contact Becki on 07745918245 (I'm afraid its a generally poor signal area around Somerby) / Julie Kelham (NIS)
01636 681082 or
Serena office@rottie.rescue.keythorpe.co.uk 01858555577 (has worse mobile reception than here).

Here is the link to the Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=100791966637376#!/group.php?gid=100791966637376

Please, please help spread the word about Murphy. It is now a week since he went missing and there have been no sightings of him yet. His owner and breeder are so worried about him and want him home safe and hopefully soon! Please post the link to the facebook page on your blog, twitter, facebook everywhere you can. The more we spread the word the better chance we have of finding him!

Thank you for reading!

Strike a pose.

My dad is a really great photographer. He really knows how to capture a moment and also how to capture my best side! :D I've been photographed by Mum and Dad since I was a baby so I know how to strike a pose!
Here's two pictures that Dad took of me the other evening.

My Regal Pose (Because I am Queen Kodi!)

Best served cold!

We've been getting some really nice sunny weather here in Ireland lately. As a  result mum has been worrying about me getting too hot so she decided to make me something yummy to cool me down, frozen yoghurt treats! Some countries have these available to buy from stores but you can easily make your own.In fact we got a delicious recipe for them from a blog we love to read, check it out here: http://houndstooth4.blogspot.com/2010/04/frosty-paws-for-you.html

Mum bought the ingredients, blended them up and froze them in some tupperware. Then I got to enjoy the end result!

Mmmm, yummy!!!!

I really really enjoyed my frozen treat! Perfect for the hot weather! :)

Happy Mushing!

Spring in my step!

Well it is officially Springtime now. It has been a while since my last update but that's because mum & dad have been hogging the laptop for work.

Alot has happened in the last few weeks. The most exciting thing is that my dog adventure club was filmed for an Irish tv programme! I of course was a complete proffessional in front of the cameras showing off what I do best, mushing! I can't wait until it airs on tv to see if I will see myself. Next stop, Hollywood! :D

The last few days we have had some fantastic sunny weather! It feels like summertime especially with the evenings getting longer. Mum & Dad took me to the phoenix park the other day to enjoy the sun. The park is huge, the biggest public park in the Europe and the presidents house is located there. But even better it has deer! Huge herds of them. It was my first time to see them and boy were they fascinating! For a while we chilled out in the sunshine beside the papal cross.

Because it was so sunny there were lots of people around and so i got lots of attention. I got compliments from adults and got rubs from children :) We also bumped into one of our friends from the dog adventure club. Everyone was really enjoying the sun.

Mum says if the good weather keeps up we will take out my swimming pool! I hope the sun stays a bit longer :D
