I watch you all the time

It is important to know where one's pet humans are. When they are in the place of food, keep an especially keen eye open. Because that is where food comes from. And you never know when some will come your way.

A nice new Blogger app!

We learnt yesterday that the good people at Blogger have finally released a blogging app for the iPoodlephone.

Which makes us happy because it will be easier for us to put paw to touch keyboard on the go!

Blaf!

We are still posting, just not much on here..

We have been experimenting with ways to streamline our posting to blogs and there are so many things to keep updated: Blogger, Twitter, Facebook and now Tumblr.

Tumblr has proven to be easier for us to use on a whim, especially from our phone - which is where we do a lot of our posting from these days. Our latest Tumblr posts can be seen in the widget box on the right.

Spoomatic is our Tumblr blog - feel free to have a look!

It's mid winter, but it's like summer

Gym or beach walk with the girls? Poodles win!

Of course I can walk in a straight line, I'm a Poodle!

Our humans got us winter jackets. They are tartan but we are not Scottish. Which is funny because we have seen Scottish dogs on our walks amd their hair reaches the floor and they look like they are hovering.

Here I am demonstrating how to do what should more correctly be known as 'strutting one's stuff on the dogwalk'.

Not that I am not hovering because really, I don't understand that concept and I am also not Scottish.

Alpha female apologises

Often we share a bowl and often I am the first eating and often I growl at my older sister when she tries to eat but we still happily share kibble but today we had a fight she bit my ear and now I smell of disinfectant.

She came and licked my face to say sorry. I am still eating kibble and she is lying down watching me. The humans made a fuss over me and she knows she went a bit overboard.

We are tired and hot

Our humans took us walking when we went to Laingsburg last weekend. Laingsburg is a small town/village in the Karoo with not much in it. The Karoo is a large area with not much in it either.

It was my first time climbing up rocks. My sister Mia is smaller and lighter than me and she climbs like a mountain goat. My humans had to take me up a more gentle slope.

We climbed up a Koppie. In the language our humans speak, this means a small head, or a hill. Which is strange. Because I have now climbed up a head.

But it is was fun and there were lots of interesting smells. And huge piles of poo from either bokkies or dassies. And there were bones lying around which is very thoughtful for Poodle climbers.

When we got to the top, we needed to rest. Then we went home.

A different beach

This is the main beach in Bloubergstrand. There are normally lots of dogs walking their humans here but my human brought me when everyone was somewhere else.

Probably the humans were all at those large buildings where they go in empty handed and walk out with food.

This sign tells the humans not to swim but there were lots of humans in long rubber bags standing on things and moving with the waves. Isn't that swimming?

We like to chase each other

This was taken by our human yesterday as we played in the dog park opposite Babette's home. You can see how fast I am. Babette likes to pirouette and Poodle box!
