Year of the Dog Day 173

I went out at lunchtime but I didn’t spot any dogs so I went to the park after work. As soon as I arrived I spotted a very lovely Boxer dog so I went over to say hello. I really love Boxer dogs, they’re so friendly, happy and smiley; Kenya (Kenny for short) was no exception! Kenny has such a big beautiful smile as you can see in the photo, such a gorgeous girl! Me and Kenny it hit off, I feel that we’re already friends and I got to play fetch with her!

Myself, Ethan and my husband took a stroll to the park this afternoon and just as we arrived at the playground I spotted a really cute Long Haired Dachshund tied to the railings. I looked around the park trying to work out who the dogs human might be, I guessed it was a lady who was pushing her grandkids on a swing near by so I went over to say hello; I guessed right! The beautiful Dachshund is called Lottie. She’s a really friendly girl, I got to give her lots of strokes! She loves spending time with people, especially her human mummy’s grandkids. Lottie is also a bit of a chatter box, she had a good long conversation with me! She especially likes talking in the car and when she’s at home she makes a funny noise if she feels she’s not getting enough attention! Lottie once a litter of 5 puppies. They were going to keep one of them but Lottie let the puppy walk all over her and it ate all of her food.

The weather has been miserable today, lots of rain! I had to pop into Pets at Home so I hoped I’d see a dog there and I was in luck! I met very cute Frank a Pug and Chihuahua cross. Frank has only lived with his current humans since Wednesday so they’re just getting to know each other! Frank’s previous owners had 5 other dogs and 2 cats which proved t be too much so they decided to re-home him. Frank is a very lovely!

We travelled back home from Weymouth today; we were stuck in traffic for most of the way, it took an age to get home! Fortunately I knew I’d have no trouble finding a dog today as there’s always loads at service stations; someone could do a blog on service station dogs! As soon as we drove into the car park I spotted a French Bulldog, I was very pleased, I think they’re great! Finn is a very handsome and friendly boy, I got to give him lots of strokes! Finn’s humans have previously had Boxer dogs but wanted to go for something smaller and so the chose a French Bulldog! They said when they went to pick him up he looked a bit funny and had a wonky eye! He just sat there and looked at them and they fell in love. He definitely doesn’t have a wonky eye now!

I’m currently on holiday in Dorset and I’m very excited about all of the dogs I’m going to see! I wonder if I’ll see different breeds; is there a North/ South doggy divide?!

I went into Weymouth today and pretty much as soon as I walked into the town centre I spotted a really handsome looking dog. I met gorgeous Derek, what a friendly boy he is! I got to have a little bit of a cuddle with him, he’s very nice! Derek is a Labradoodle. His mum is a Fox Red Labrador which you can see from the lovely colour of his coat and his dad is a Miniature Poodle; I’m not really sure how that worked!

I’ve been travelling today and had hopes that I would spot a nice dog at the service station, I was in luck! I spotted two really cute dogs, a Basset Hound and another dog I didn’t recognise! Although they look completely different in turns out that they are both a type of Basset Hound! Hermione is a Basset Griffon Vendeen. I hadn’t heard of the breed but Hermione’s human daddy informed me that they’re very rare with only a handful of breeders in the country. They both make a really cute duo, I don’t think they stopped wagging their tails! They get lots of attention, everyone wants to stop to stroke them and who can blame people, Basset Hounds are amazing! I genuinely didn’t stop smiling when I was looking through the photos I took of them, they’re both brilliant!

I had to go to a meeting on the other side of town later in the day and spotted a couple of cute dogs but I didn’t have time to stop!
