We walk on the beach, and on the grass, and on the rocks, and on the mountains, and in the valleys. There are lots of walks.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4095809672/" title="Dog riot. by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2734/4095809672_b511d3e7ac.jpg" width="500" height="202" alt="Dog riot." /></a><br /><br />On one beach walk we met a funny thing called a penguin. Apparently it is a bird but this cannot be right as it cannot fly, instead it waddled off into the sea when we went to look at it.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4095049407/" title="Does it have a chocolate covering? by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2701/4095049407_d1b6ac483f.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Does it have a chocolate covering?" /></a><br /><br />We were not allowed to chase it and it was not even covered in chocolate.<br /><br />Bummer.<br /><br />TTFN<br /><br />Ducu (count)Kerriohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14127019534022322005noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776116533153019586.post-49410502997637553942009-11-10T00:57:00.002+00:002009-11-10T01:05:40.901+00:00FREEEEEEEEEEEEEDOOOOOM!At last, at long last, we have escaped from house arrest.<br /><br />Unfortunately this meant a trip to the V.E.T. Fortunately nothing happened and we were out of there PDQ.<br /><br />From the vets we drove straight to the beach and went for a monster run. In a hailstorm. We did not care about the hail but the humans are wusses decided to cut it short.<br /><br />Later the weather perked up and we took the people up to Wireless Ridge for a quick romp, the views are great:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4090654864/" title="Posing on Wireless Ridge by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2571/4090654864_0ce563a807.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Posing on Wireless Ridge" /></a><br /><br />Tiggy wanted to eat this rock, but we talked her out of it:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4090654456/" title="First day out by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2571/4090654456_c92d371649.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="First day out" /></a><br /><br />Then late afternoon we went to pick up the LSWD, Jackson and went back to the beach. He is a bit short and has huge ears, I'm not sure if he is really a dog.<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4091454334/" title="It's the Basset Meets Lurcher moment by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2733/4091454334_5ab11d52f1.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="It's the Basset Meets Lurcher moment" /></a><br /><br />I guess he's ok, though he does seem to want to share our treats:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4090688249/" title="Basset & Lurcher meet. by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2502/4090688249_e5835ea41f.jpg" width="500" height="228" alt="Basset & Lurcher meet." /></a><br /><br />Back into the car, all four of us together and back to the house. The LSWD has moved in with us. EEK, now we will have to share the window seat.<br /><br />Bye for now<br /><br />Ducu (count)Kerriohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14127019534022322005noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776116533153019586.post-75263221008019215362009-11-08T12:23:00.003+00:002009-11-08T12:29:16.718+00:00We love muttonBeing under house arrest while all the other dogs are living it up does have some compensations.<br /><br />The best one is something called Mutton Shanks. These are sold in the shops for humans, but our people buy them for us. <br /><br />They are YUMMY.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4085869698/" title="Mutton is yummy by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2739/4085869698_56a30c5361.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Mutton is yummy" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4085869470/" title="Mutton is yummy by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2705/4085869470_d460190623.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Mutton is yummy" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/4085112155/" title="Mutton is yummy by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2480/4085112155_bb8fe6959f.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Mutton is yummy" /></a><br /><br />For some strange reason, mutton shanks always come in pairs, and as I am the skinniest of the skinny ugly mutant dogs, I always get the "extra".

Tiggy is just spending a bit more time in her bed and TeaLeaf is his usual blasé self.<br /><br />They all usually have half an hour chasing Charlie around the bridge every morning but they missed out on that.

We stopped overnight, went for walks and ate. (We like eating).<br /><br />Daisy only has 3 legs, apparently it helps her keep her weight down, some dogs are so vain. It also means she can run faster as she does not have to drag around that extra spare paw, she's very very fast.<br /><br />Daisy and Rhea were kind enough to let me share their sofa<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/3995615554/" title="Anywhere I can find a sofa is good (even if I have to share) by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3543/3995615554_80740e58a0.jpg" width="375" height="500" alt="Anywhere I can find a sofa is good (even if I have to share)" /></a><br /><br />And their treats:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/3995615800/" title="Lurchery tour hits Harefield by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2442/3995615800_f854d37ac8.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="Lurchery tour hits Harefield" /></a><br /><br />We did not eat chinese.Kerriohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14127019534022322005noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776116533153019586.post-64108303055996326532009-10-09T14:06:00.005+01:002009-10-09T14:28:47.826+01:00Horsted Keynes at last!Finally, after all those nights in the noisy blue house and rainy Scotland, we have reached our ULTIMATE comfort zone, our home from home and the residence of my girlfriend, Meg.<br /><br />Horsted Keynes, home of Ali & Graeme, Lucy, Meg and Murphy.<br /><br />Tiggy made herself at home RIGHT away.

Where the sun came out. Which made the DogFather laugh for some reason (who can understand humans?).<br /><br />Then on to Dunblain where the humans had chinese again and this time we helped them finish it up. It was yummy.<br /><br />While in Dunblain we did a flying visit to Bracklin Falls where we had to keep the human on tight lead in case they fell in (it was deep and had very fast flowing water and humans don't swim very well):<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/3906598806/" title="Lurchers do Bracklin Falls by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3445/3906598806_4d70c22e92.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="Lurchers do Bracklin Falls" /></a><br /><br />Because Scotland was so wet we then headed back down south, stopping off in Manchester to see uncle Sam, where we had chinese again and we got to help clean up:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kerrio/3906599010/" title="Lurchers do chinese takeaway in Manchester by kerri.o, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2526/3906599010_4b9720df57.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="Lurchers do chinese takeaway in Manchester" /></a><br /><br />It was yummy.
