toot toot NO

Grrrrr thats all I get when out on walks toot toot from the whistle and then hoomin Mummy shouting NO.

Its not fair and boring.

Hoomin Mummy has a poorly paw at the moment so she isnt able to take me running and Daddy walks are so much shorter than Mummy walks. But I did manage to dive into the canal for a quick swim yay.

And then she was off again with the toot toot No whistle.

One day I am going to hide it

Looking After My Bunnies

Why Does Mummy Have To Keep Shouting At Me?

Strange thing today we got to the canal for our walk to find it was almost empty. Oh but can you see that mud...

Of course Mummy said NO.

No, No, No, No that's the only word she seems to know and its a stupid word and I hate the No whistle as well.

All she cares about is making sure she gets to have fun, well what about me?

I am Archduke Ferdiand the First and I demand to play in the lovely sinky mud and do you think I was allowed?

No.

Still I did get to have some fun zooming up and down the towpath and then I saw a coot. Can you guess what Mummy shouted? Yep that stupid word again.

No No No No, blah blah blah blah I'm not listening.

In Trouble Again

Uh oh in trouble again.

It's not my fault. Really its not. I mean I was being good. I was only swimming. Its not like she had to whip those things out of her ears and shout at me. So how is it my fault that she lost the little end bit?

Troll Hunting

Today I went Troll Hunting with Mummy and Daddy. Daddy tells me there are trolls living at the canal but I have never seen one.

Anyway I had a lovely time but Mummy says I am the naughtiest little spaniel in the whole wide world.

Really I'm not, I am very well behaved.

this is where we went

Daddy always likes to stop and talk to the horses

Zooming around the field

And then the best bit of the walk :)

I did lots and lots of swimming and there were even coots to chase. I do like chasing coots.

And a bit more swimming.

And then Mummy used that darn whistle to call me out of the water, I did take my time though and swam about a bit more first. Then I got out and we walked along the tow path pass the lock and yes more swimming.

I really was having a lot of fun swimming, but then I decided that I would investigate what was on the other bank so got out for a little look. Apparently I wasn't mean to do this so yet again Mummy blew on that stupid whistle but I was not going to listen.

Then I got stuck in the brambles and reeds and once I'd freed myself I did begrudging swim back to Mummy.

See that big long stick - that was stuck in my tail

I then scampered back into the water.

Then Mummy and Daddy started to use their grumpy voices so I had to get out and do you know what they did they put me on the stupid lead.

I wasnt done swimming so I tried to drag Daddy in with me

Honestly if they don't want me to swim then they should take me to a field not the canal. How can they say I am naughty when they take me to these places. Really what do they expect?

Anyway I was super good on my lead.

Which meant that Daddy let me off again. I waited for Daddy to be distracted by more horses and dived into the disused canal section. I swam about a bit and I went and had a look at what was on the other bank and did a bit more paddling.

Can you see me?

It was great fun and even better stinky. But yet again Mummy and that stupid whistle. What is it with the whistle? Why does she always have to spoil my fun?

I got out and was made to go back on the stupid lead again.

nope I am not looking at you

I wasn't allowed off the lead again.

this is where Daddy says the troll lives and apparently I am lucky I wasn't gobbled up

I think Daddy might have made up the troll, what do you think?

The Furry Friend Tag

So my Mummies friend suggested that Mummy might like to take part in the Furry Friend Tag. But I thought why cant I take part?

I'm furry and I have friends.

Mummies friends post can be found here and is all about her lovely Lab named Stella.

So here is my Furry Friend Tag all about my bunnies (well two of them).

1. What's their name?

Jeeves and Wooster

2. When did you get Jeeves and Wooster?

Christmas Eve 2012

We had to let them settle in 

3. What is something that Jeeves and Wooster does that annoys you?

They jump on me when I am snuggled on the sofa next to Mummy.

4. What type of breed is Jeeves and Wooster?

They are French Lop Rabbits.

French Lops are a giant bread which means they are a little bit bigger than what most people consider to be rabbit sized. Mummy tells people to think cat sized plus a bit. In fact some giant rabbits can be as big as a small dog:

This is me and my BFF her name was Queen Zara and she was a BIG bunny

5. Has Jeeves and Wooster ever had a near death experience?

Yes Jeeves has and really scared me and Mummy.

He sometimes chokes on his food because he tries to gobble it up too fast. Mummy had to learn the Bunny Heimlich manoeuvre. Some bunnies die because people don't realise they can choke. Mummy now spreads their food across the floor and in with their hay to slow down his eating and reduce competition with Wooster (who is a greedy guts). I like this much better as I get to scoffle some bunny nuggets up as well, they are very nommy (bunny poop is also very nommy).

6. Does Jeeves and Wooster know any tricks?

No, well unless you count wrapping Mummy around their little paws to get whatever they want a trick.

7. Does Jeeves and Wooster love to snuggle?

Yes.
They really love to snuggle each other, but sometimes I also snuggle with them.

8. Where did you get Jeeves and Wooster?

Mummy and Daddy adopted them from a local bunny rescue.

9. Do get Jeeves and Wooster get along with other dogs?

They don't know any other dogs. Being bunnies an introduction would always have to be careful and it would depend on the dog.

Plus why would they want to get to know any other dogs when they have me.

10. Do Jeeves and Wooster Get along with strangers?

No. Jeeves likes to hide and stomp his feet. Wooster is a little more outgoing and will have a little look. If a stranger has been quiet then they might come over and check them out.

11. How much does Jeeves and Wooster weigh?

A lot I think Mummy said that Wooster is almost a stone (about 6kg / 13 lbs) and Jeeves is a little bit lighter (about 5kg / 11 lbs).

12. Do you ever dress Jeeves and Wooster up?

No.

13. Has Jeeves and Wooster ever tried to run away?

No, but they have occasionally got out of their bit of garden (I may have helped) and gone exploring.

14. How did you come up with their name?

Daddy named them because he likes Jeeves and Wooster.

15. How much does Jeeves and Wooster mean to you on a scale of 1 - 10?

Well there poop means the world to me.

Its tasty, its organic and it comes out of their bums.

Do you have a furry friend? Maybe you could join in the the furry friend tag as well.
