WEDNESDAY 20th Apr: Donkeys!

Cato:

This is that first, all important sniff-widdle.  It was lovely.

Boring white stuff

and then we saw the Donkeys.  It was very exciting.  There were so many of them!

This is me having a foray on the Donkey Side.  I slipped through the fence and started to go to see them, but I got distracted by some delicious Donkey Poo, and then I sort of realised how close I was to them, and turned round to find Mum, and she had disappeared!!!  So I executed a controlled retreat at top speed, and then I saw Dad, and headed straight for him!  Phew!

But Tara didn't get any Donkey Poo, cos she was too wussy to climb through the fence!

This is us leading Mum away towards safer places and sniffs.

Tara:

So after Cato did his silly donkey stuff, and nearly wet himself hahahaha! we went along here,

which is BORING until you realise that the bit in the left is a FASCINATING and sniffy ditch.  A deep ditch.  With marvellous sniffy things in the bottom.

It is deeper than Mum is tall, but you can't really see that here.  I wanted to go down it very very very much, but I also didn't want to go down... and Mum and Dad were watching, and I didn't want to get told off.  So I didn't get too close.  Maybe next time...

Then we got to the lake, and there was glorious squelchy mud, and Cato got told off for drinking the mud soup.  And I got a 'Oh Tara!!!!' when I mud puddled.  But it is OK cos I wiped it off on Cato's back, and the benches, and even on the grass.

It was a bit hot, and Cato lay down under the bench and panted instead of playing Truffle Hound.  Mum says that when it gets really hot we will have to walk in the evenings instead of middle of the day.  And then Mum can have her lunch in the garden instead of in front of the computer every day.

 

Mum:

And a fisherman that the mutts did not see (thank goodness) or they would have mugged him for attention, and his bait and sandwiches, if he had any.

Oh, and very interestingly, this afternoon, they went outside and sunbathed in the garden without a human for protection.  They often go out and widdle, or play, but this time they lay in the sun, on the decking, rather close to the entrance to the side alley, and were completely sleepy and relaxed.

Those ghosties have obviously vacated!  :signthankspin:

Awwwww Donkeys ? What a lovely treat. 

Oh my, thanks for the picture of the moorhen on the water.. The water looks a bit green and murky for my liking. But what a super clear picture ? 

Good job my guys weren't there, they would of dive bombed the fisherman and probably ended up in the river.. :roflmao:

Cato what a brave paw you are for  wandering in with the Donkeys.......did they make there funny noise to try and scare you off ? We have a couple of donkeys close by where we live and you can hear them talking back and forth to each other. People keep them in their cow pastures to keep the coyotes at bay.........another lovely walk for you again and it is getting warm here too.......so it is early morning or evening for our walks........other wise it is the porch for my guys to nap and lay in the sun.........how nice that the ghost are gone and you can lay in the garden and knowing Mum is close at hand if you need her.

Cato:  no, @auntie Sophie's Haven, the Donkey's didn't make a funny noise at me, but they were eating grass in a really threatening manner!

no blog today Aunties.  Mum had work stuff ALL DAY and Dad was out doing HIS work stuff from before we woke up till FOREVER.  So we went to AuntieKimDogsitter for the WHOLE day.  We got there at before breakfast o'clock and went out for a walk.  Then we ate (yum!) and had treats.  Then we had ANOTHER walk! With Arty and Missy  

This is our walks:

Mum and Dad came and picked us up together, and we were sooooooo glad to see them we bounced and bounced and bounced.

but now we are very tired.  Mum gave us a special tea and now Tara is so deeply asleep that she isn't snoring, and i am going to sleep as soon as Mum finishes typing this.

see you tomorrow... zzz... zzzzz... z
