Meteors, Snowtime, Sleeping Lazy Bones and Romance in the City

Wow! Super Snowy Sunday Surprise. Surprised that his garden was suddenly white, Hamish had to be carried out to pee this morning but once he got to the park he was super-excited and had a ball with all of his friends. He was sliding around and diving in and peeing on all the snowmen - not popular with the real mummies and daddies, but hey! it's a park and it's a vertical surface.
Luckily Maisie has spots. We haven't seen her in a while - she's been in season. Still giving off a strong signal to Hamish though and he was a bit on her case.Retrieving is much more fun with a white ball and snow. Hamish did really well to find it and loved the challenge. Really I think these were some of the most enthusiastic retrieves I've seen him do.
Photocall for humans too. We all had a really nice morning together; cold, but even more fun than usual in the winter wonderland.
I was away last week and Hamish stayed for 3 days with Ruby. I came back to find that they'd been getting very romantic together.
Sound asleep in the back of Joe's jeep coming back from a long walk on Hampstead Heath.
Mr. and Mrs. McKahn snuggling up after a hard day's work.
The day after..............today most of the snow had gone apart from these meteors (goalposts really) - still good enough to pee on.
Ermmm? Three's a crowd I think. Stop wrestling and get your paw out of my armpit. Steven is trying to sleep (pretending to I think). This is actually the first time Ruby's even seen a bed never mind get up on one. Sorry guys but she lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvved it.This is the cosy scene I found when I came out of the shower this morning (yes, I know it's a dog and he shouldn't be in the bed). Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...Two sound asleep lazy bones - both as bad as each other.

Love is in the Air......Today We Finally Met Ruby, Matt and Joe

Today we went to the Tower Hamlets Dog Show which was a fun event with categories such as the Best Harry Potter Impersonator. However we didn't come home empty handed as Hamish won 4th place in the Best Puppy Category. He didn't mind but of course we thought the judge needed glasses. (No offense to the lovely winner 'Snippy' but we do have a clause in the intro of this blog that openly admits that we're biased.) Anyway it was fun and we got lots of freebies.












By far the best thing about today though was that we finally got to meet the lovely Ruby, and Matt and Joe who are very nice too. We've been hearing about them for months now but our paths never crossed until this afternoon, and we were very excited as was Hamish.They got on very well together as you can see. Wouldn't they make lovely puppies...mmmmm? We must be crazy to even think it, no?
After lunch we nearly got the bus home as Hamish was trying to cuddle up and sleep. But he soon perked up at the sight of his furry friends in the park.Ok then go for a quick swim but don't..........HAMISH!!!.......He absolutely stunk something rotten all the way home....and then cuddled up for the rest of the day after a nice warm shower with a good rub with Tomato Purée (apparently an old hunters tip we got from Andrea, he still stinks a bit though).
