I lost my favourite ball while on our camping trip so I made up a poem on the way home - hope you like it - rhymes are hard for puppy minds to think of!
My Yellow Ball and I!
One day I went a shopping
And picked you from the pile
This one please mummy
A waggy tail and smile
I took you home and showed you
Toy balls of every hue
But you were the only yellow one
And I stuck with you like glue
You came with me out walking
And didn’t mind at all
When I dropped you in a puddle
My Muddy Yellow Ball
You came with me out swimming
And didn’t mind at all
When I dunked you in the river
My Soggy Yellow Ball
You stayed with me at bedtime
And didn’t mind at all
When I chewed you ever so slightly
My Lumpy Yellow Ball
It often was suggested
As days and weeks went by
That yellow ball was past it
And a new ball we should buy
But I loved you Yellow Ball
And kept you by my side
And never put you in the bin
No matter how they tried
One day we went the seaside
And played upon the sand
And looked in all the rock pools
But I kept you close at hand
But then oh Yellow Ball forgive me
For fate was cruel not kind
When I dropped you in the ocean
My Yellow Ball, I couldn’t find!
A wave had come and stole you
Away from my searching nose
And swept you from my watching gaze
To where? Well heaven knows!
I stood there looking hopeful
Until I was called away
My Yellow Ball is lost now
Although I looked for half the day
So please can we go shopping
I have a gap to fill
Would really like a new ball
I’ll look after it, promise I really will!
Camping Puppydog Style
I have a new fav hobby!
When P&B packed up the mini on Friday I was really not sure what to think - especially as there was so much stuff my head was almost on the roof of the car - did mean I could snuff out of the sun roof!
After what seemed an age of bumping along we arrived in a field and I was tied to a post! (which was worrying cos I was have heard about doggies being tied to a post in a field!) and then P&B started to unpack the car. I did offer to help but they said no it is fine - so I had a lay down, chewed a ball I found in the hedge and watched.
Imagine my surprise when after a few minutes a little house began to appear - this is apparently called a Tent!
Once the 'Tent' was up P said would I like a little walkie - imagine my surprise when we walked across the field and there we were on Lligwy Beach - which is like one of my absolute favourite places!
When we got back to the tent Nana and Dubs had arrived and were setting up their tent next to ours!
I think you need to tighten that guy rope
Have had such a great couple of days - paddling and swimming in the sea, walking on the headlands, supervising the camp site from our little corner of it, sleeping, chasing bunny rabbits at 3am - it was just sooooo much fun - and once I have caught up with my sleep I only have one question - WHEN CAN WE GO AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!
Please can I have a chicken sandwich Nana?
The Crazy things Humans do - can I have a burger please!
King of all I survey!
