Year of the Dog Day 249

I went for a walk at lunchtime today but unfortunately I didn’t spot any dogs, so I drove to the park on the way home from work. As soon as I arrived I spotted a very excited Springer Spaniel so I went over to meet him. Oscar is very active, he hardly keeps still! Oscar was a little bit nervous when I first went over; he used to be bold and would go up to anyone but he became really nervous of new people after a trip to the vets! Oscar warmed up to me though and I got to give him lots of fuss and rub his tum! He especially likes having his belly rubbed and lies down on his back as soon as his humans stroke him! Oscar lives with his human brother who’s 16 months old; he loves Oscar to bits, he make him laugh loads!

Year of the Dog Day 244

It was pouring down at lunchtime today so I decided not to go out on a dog search until I got back to Bolton. I parked up near nursery and spotted a very lovely looking dog across the road so I went to say hello. Lilly was so excited that she did her excited dog dance where she steps from side to side, so cute. Lilly always does her dance when she’s excited! It reminds of a lovely Black and White Corgi I used to know called Pearl, she also used to dance from side to side when I saw her. The excited dog dance always makes me think of that episode of the Simpsons where Homer makes Lisa play the jug to help him think and he does a side to side dance along to the thinking music!

Lilly is such a happy friendly dog, she’s one of the happiest dogs I’ve ever met! Lilly is a Golden Labrador and Golden Retriever cross. When she was a puppy she looked more like a Labrador but her fur has changed as she’s aged and is now darker and with more curls. Lilly is best friends with a cat called Daz, they love each other loads and are always licking each other.

I was on my way to pick up Ethan from nursery when I spotted a gorgeous and very excited Boxer Dog. I crossed the road to say hello but they crossed to the other side at the same time so I had to cross back again, I think I might have seemed like a crazy stalker! Eric is a friendly boy, I got to give him lots of stokes. Eric was excited the whole time I was with him, I don’t think he stopped wagging his tail! Eric has a human brother who’s two years old, Eric is really gentle with him and likes to look after him! Eric thinks that he’s a lap top, he likes los of stokes and leans into his humans for a cuddle. Eric is named after Eric Cantona, my mum really appreciate that name, she loves King Eric!

Molly was on a walk with her human daddy and human sister. Molly’s a very happy doggy, she was having the best time chasing her ball! Molly’s human granddad also has a Springer Spaniel called Charlie (her dog uncle!) which she’s friends with, they see each other all the time.

After I saw Molly I also saw beautiful Poppy from Day 3, such a lovely girl. Ethan and my nephews are now obsessed with her, they gave her lots of strokes and she didn’t stop smiling!

Me and Ethan went to Smithills Farm today, we had a great time. We got to see a baby donkey, piglets, cows, reindeers, two European eagle owls and many more great animals! I also got to see beautiful Lady the farm dog! I was hoping I would see a farm dog as I have had one on my blog yet! Lady is very friendly and gets to say hello to all of the visitors to the farm. She gets to run free all day keeping an eye on what’s going on in the farm and saying hello to all of the other farm animals. Lady has bad eye site so she doesn’t round up any sheep but she does enjoy rounding up the donkeys! When I first saw Lady I didn’t manage to get a good photo but fortunately I saw her a couple of times during my visit so I got to take a few more. I also got to give her a little stoke and even tickled her tum! Lady is friends with two other farm dogs, a German Shepherd and a Jack Russell.
