Yesterday was parlour day. We were dropped off at Wags and Whiskers again. Mia was very keen to have her hair done but I wasn't. I tried to get the human to take me away but the lady from the parlour dragged me to the back. Anyway, we look quite cute and the humans reckon it was worth the pain and suffering.
Look what my human mom found in the upstairs room! It's a little flying thing. Similar to the ones that eat the seed in the bird feeder but this one has a long beak. I wonder what it is? Are they edible?
When we are eventually let off leash (providing any small humans and other canines are not close by) boy, do we just go for it! I think we run faster than Wuh wa huff's (Greyhounds). Despite the best efforts of the humans, we headed for the surf and got soaking wet. Ha! Poodles are made for water.
What a treat! We got bundled into the car and taken to Milnerton to run on the grass. Made a nice change and Mia and I were able to zoot around at full speed. Then a man came with a doglet on a leash and then another man came with what looked like a black horse. I wanted to make friends with it and it got a fright when I barked with excitement. Apparently it's something called a Great Dane which we know as Wuff Huff. Mia just wanted to beat it up - but that's my little sister!
We have taken it upon ourselves to wake the human at 5:30. We do this as illustrated here, standing around and looking fluffy and cute!
You know that famous song by Sir Elton Poodle, Poodle in the Wind? Well, that was us this morning. Here is Babette singing it while we stopped for photos. Check how we look with our hair and ears blowing backwards.
This yellow thing that you see on top of the door also arrived to sleep over with the humans and Babette. Can you believe I didn't realise the thing in the big cage made squeaky noises and can fly! It's a bit like the wood pigeons that come down and eat our kibble except it's a hypnotising yellow colour...
These pesky humans that insist on whipping out those cameras with little or no warning. I mean, one minute I'm busy playing with 'Big Beer', my toy of the moment and then "flash flash flash". It's blinding and somewhat disorienting. Not that is detracts too much from play but c'mon humans! If you must take pictures of Poodles, we need hair, wardrobe, make-up and a dedicated air-conditioned Winnebago. OK?
This was taken this evening on the beach near my home. I'm posing next to my walking human. We chased each other around the sand and grass for a bit after I had a wee.

This is a photo that my Ouma, (Mia's human) took with her phone camera on our beach walk this afternoon. I think it's a lovely self portrait of me and Ouma, capturing the essence of Poodleness adoring a human.
Mia's human mom and dad went away for the weekend. Last time they went away we all went to Mia's house but last night she came and stayed with us!
