Heathcliff Back At The Keyboard

Hi Everybody! It has been quite some time since I last nudged Desiree off her blogging seat.

I thought you might like to know that Bonny, Toby, Coco, Milo, Noodle and I are all doing very well. With the warmer weather, we have been spending some time at the pool. Continue reading to see all of us having fun in the sun!




Toby and I are the two swimmers. Bonny does not enjoy being in the pool much and the pups are still getting used to the idea. Linda was here this week and spent quite a lot of time playing at the pool with us. She even had her camera on one of the days and took lots of photos of us. It wasn't easy for me to decide which showed us off at our best. I think we're all good-looking all of the time, so the choice comes down to Good-Better-Best. I'll leave you to decide for yourselves...

Bonny was finding the sun a bit bright and had one eye half closed.

Toby is actually an otter. He just looks like a German Shepherd! Water really is his natural element.

Coco is our Glamour Girl. She loves water, but is not yet too sure about the swimming pool and likes to watch from the sidelines. I also think she's trying to keep that fair complexion, blemish free. 

Milo is our Eager Beaver. He's always just so happy and ready for a game that's why he keeps his white socks looking so clean and smart all the time.

Noodle is rapidly becoming a Glamour Girl in her own right. She  thinks that since she's the youngest, she deserves extra cuddles.

Bonny is 10 years old. Her passion in life is and always has been a tennis ball. 

Toby is loved by us all. He is growing into such a handsome young man. He is very obedient and super intelligent. 

There's Miss Glamour Girl again. She's very photogenic.

Milo probably has the sweetest nature of us all and that really is saying something, since each of us is incredibly sweet natured. He's just so gentle!

Noodle still loves to dig and eat all sorts of plant material and bark. She's been at it again (the muck around her mouth gives her away every time!)

And here I am again, leading the pack. Don't be fooled by my height! I am the Alpha Male around here!

Here I am, asking Linda nicely to please throw the ball into the water again. 

Noodle is tempted, but not yet quite sure.

Toby fetches the balls out of the swimming pool and then passes them to Milo who takes them to someone to have them thrown back in again. This game keeps them amused for hours.

See, what did I tell you? There's Noodle getting some extra cuddles again!

OK, Folks! That's it from us for today. I'm off to have another swim. Anyone care to join me?

Desiree said she'll be back with another Garden post as soon as she can find the time to sort through her pictures. I must admit we do keep her pretty busy, but it's just so nice having her around all the time. We never feel lonely!
