Deffo something a-paw - holiday beds washed, holiday collars packed, Java's beach lead put in box and Java's anorak.

Humans stuffing clean pants, socks and toothbrushes into a bag. Sad goodbyes to online WOW friends - much crying, flirting, saluting, bowing and last dances - how barkin' sad is that!? 

Little Abe warming basket for small  young visitor and her elderly, but quite mad, spanglesnooted accomplice.

32 Sleeps to Santa Paws? See for every one human sleep in the dark/light cycle - we doglets have four (not including mini-kips, resting our eyes, power napping, mediating or stealth guarding disguised as sleeping). Four proper sleeps is equal to one day.

kAt0 is well excited, marking off the Sleeps till that welly-wearing  beardy dude comes down the chimney. Tho welly-wearing beardy dude could be describing Hippy. 

Then its counting down the sleeps till Lindsifarne - might even let Java have an off lead run whe the tides in - it being an island lowers the chance of losing her (Java's recall can be is naff) and also having a

[personal profile] boglinto run after her is reassuring. Java doesn't mean to be rubbish at recall - but when she gets the slightest sniff of prey (chippy, pint of real ale, rabbit etc) she is so focussed, she goes completly deaf.

Java spent the weekend with her many, many canine friends - of all shapes, sizes and genders a-rambling and a-boozing with her Besty Friend Gromit. There were five other dogs on the ramble and she was friendly, sociable, swopped mobile numbers and prmised to do lunch sometime with them all. Her Gromit does seem to be able to find many pubs that will let dogs in AND serve a decent pint. That Abe hung out with her Little Emo (who prob isn't an emo anymore but some gothpunk hybrid - still Little tho). While kAt0 was in the longest Down Stay like Evah up at the humans parents - but was rewarded with illicit yet delish sugary biscuity goodness.

In other news, Little Abe has some green seaweedy powder added to her food in an attempt to combat her tartary dog breath. But one of her canine(!) fangs looks like it is going bad and may need removal. Going to discuss with vet after ConsumerMass - but it would mean a general anaesthetic, and Little Abe does react badly to any chemicals in her body. But probably best to get it done while she is ten rather than waiting till she is even more elderly. Heh! Little Abe being elderly - who woud have thunk it.

So, we are back then. Little Abe did alright at the weekend with a [profile] cathandtheskunk to look after her every whim, and a [profile] rainbowskye and [personal profile] flooks in attendance just in case there wasn't quite enough attention for Little Abe. Little Abe now curled up in warm contented ball snoozing away. Or thanks to Team Abe for making the weekend possible.

Java and kAt0 not such a good weekend and our humans have resolved never, ever to put us in kennels ever again. [info]sheff_dogs Penny was also in the nick with us. But then its a rare occaision that demands that every single other dogsitter was indisposed. "Team Abe"  had offered to endure look after all three of us - but thats such a tricky conumdrum and our humans really thought we would be OK in kennels.  We did feel sorry for those whose sentence was longer than ours, but couldn't wait to get in the car, never has the boot of a VW Estate felt so welcoming. 

 Aside from a sprint around on the beach for an hour on Friday and Saturday - the rest of our time was pretty miserable. Our tails were so right under we looked docked! 

We were so upset, we called in Chester on the way home, to have a relax and a pootle in the parents garden, many poos and lots of wees. The humans parents made sympathetic soothing nosies and gave us sugary biscuits (the holy grail of Biscuits) and we eventually felt safe again.

kAt0 and Java booked into Welsh holiday camp for weekend. That Abe got the long straw and gets to spend a whole weekend with Kathi (or Qathi as we think it should be spelt). Human and hippy just nipping out to get married. Back Sunday.

doglets: (Glyn and Java)

The LJ user formerly known as [profile] balsal_heathen now WINOLJ, commented at the weekend that Java and Glyn (her personal dogsitter) relationship always puts him in mind of Wallace and Gromit. 

And we suspect the mental image we have now, of Java and Glyn sitting down to a breakfast of Wensleydale and tea, surrounded by gadgets, isn' t that far from the truth. Pondering where they will go for the days walkies....

"Java!, that's it! Cheese! We'll go somewhere where there's cheese!"

And thinking about it - Java has become more partial to dairy products since her friendship with Glyn commenced. Java always returns from her weekends away with incredible stories of swimming, beer festivals, launderettes and steam trains.

"Holy helecopters! Penguins aren't supposed to fly! We'll never catch him now. Unless." 

 Wouldn't surprise us to see Java in the newspapers with a column of sheep on her shoulders saving them from being rustled by a mad cyberdog called Kato Preston. 

"Well I think we got away with that, eh pooch!"
