Hot, Hot, Hot

Over here in the UK we've been experiencing a mini heatwave. Luckily for me I gets trimmed pretty short in the summer to keep me cool, but even this old pup was finding it a bit too warm at times.

We live near a canal which is the most pawsome place to cool off in the hot weather, although my own personal paddling pool would be REALLY nice mummy **hint hint** 

Most evenings this week I've been finishing off the day with a quick dip in the canal. 

Ahhhhh total bliss I can tell you.

Of course I have to do the obligatory posing for the camera first, to keep she who must be obeyed happy, then it's time to have some fun and cool off.

Hurry up I want to swim mummy

I found this little stick to play with in the water.

 Now I don't know about you, but I'm not allowed to play with sticks as mummy says they are too dangerous.

Gonna try and see if I can walk on water!

She kept chucking it into the woods when she thought I wasn't looking and I kept bringing it back to her.
She wasn't best pleased, which is daft cos any other time I has to bring back my ball when she throws it.
I do wish hoomans would make up their minds, it gets very confusing sometimes!!!

OOPS guess I can't walk on water then.

Now calm yourselves ladies for the next picture, it's a good job I've a cute butt the amount of times it gets photographed BOL 

Check out this butt, cute or what?

I wonder who else is smiling this weekend :o)

Day at The Beach

 There's nothing I love more than a day on the beach and swimming in the sea.

I seem to have misplaced my ball here which is unusual as my ball loves the camera as much as me BOL

Now let's go and see who else is smiling this weekend :o)

A Trip Round Broadwater Lake

Daddy's car had to go to the Car Vet today, so whilst it was being operated on I took my hoomans  for a chilly stroll around Broadwater Lake. 

It looks like the most pawsome swimming place, but I had to stay on my lead the whole time **sob** Dogs can't swim there cos people have big poles and string to try and catch the fishes. Are they daft or what? **muffled giggles behind paws**

As I'm gazing wistfully into the distance I suddenly spy 

DUCKS!!!

OMP I could hardly contain my excitement **whines excitedly at the memory** I've been trained not to chase them, but it has been ages since I last saw some and I forgot myself. It's a good job I was on the lead, I'm sure I would have humiliated myself and my hoomans by jumping in the water and swimming off after them.

There is a set route all around the lake which we followed. Which meant I was getting nearer and nearer to those pesky ducks, who just love to tease a poor pup stuck on a lead by swimming about all the time.

 

Going through the wooded area I really had to strain to see them though the undergrowth. How I wishes my legs were a bit longer at times like these, so I can see over the bushes!

When we finally reached the area where they all were, I then had to endure 10 minutes of re-training. You know the sort of thing, just sitting and looking at them without getting over excited. So boring but us pups must humour the hoomans sometimes.

Those 10 minutes were the toughest of my life, I felt quite pooped out when we left that area, so took some time out for a little rest on one of the many conveniently placed benches. Which of course mummy took full advantage of as a photo opportunity **resigned sigh** 

Normally I don't mind to much but today I was having a really "Bad Hair Day" mummy says I look cute, but I'm not so sure..

A Day in the Life of a Media Hound

My day usually starts with a game of fetch with my most favorite of tennis balls, it's really old and nearly bald but I loves it so much.

If I'm really lucky and mummy has the time, we go to the canal for a swim, whatever the weather it doesn't matter. Us Cocker Spaniels are a hardly lot when it comes to swimming. 

Silent Sunday

Jackanory Part Nine

Gosh it has been a long time since I last updated my Jackanory story. 

**thinks**

We had just been away on my very first Daft Adventure, and I had finally learnt that other dogs could be friendly **breathes sigh of relief**.

That Summer we went away many times in the House on Wheels, I became firm friends with a Rhodesian Ridgeback pup called

Messing About on the River

My gorgeous Cassie came for a visit with her big brother Mr Darcy and we had fun messing about on the river.

I decided to impress my girl, but had no idea the bank was so high, gosh I got a shock!

Pet Bloggers Hop

I has finally figured out how to link up to the Saturday Pet Bloggers Hop **puffs out chest in pride**

Here's a short video of me going for a Gold Medal in Retrieving at the Doggy Olympics and failing badly BOL.




Happy Hopping

Balls, Swimming and Tomatoes

Had the most pawsome adventure in the "House on Wheels" and my hoomans, we went to my favorite beach and guess what?

There was NO rain! 

How pawsome is that, after our last weekend away was plagued with rain.

As usual it was the "Hurry up and wait" scenario, we get there and have to wait ages for the hoomans to get set up **shrugs shoulders and whispers I don't know either** before the fun can begin. 

Come on, I'm BORED!
