Shane pup came to stay!

Little pup Shane has come to stay with us for THREE nights!! Yippeee!

Look at us all together - such good Dales......

Shane hasn't met Gertrude before. They certainly seemed to like each other straight away!

What shall we do with him Molly?

Shane tagging along like Gertrude's shadow

Play with me Molly!

Well, this little puppy likes to play rough and tough! We have spent most of the time charging around with him jumping on us one by one. He is like a little kangaroo!

We love having somebody extra about to chase us with our toys!

Just look at this little pup go.....
First he picks his victim.....
Then he exerts his puppy power.....
Help me Gertrude, I'm going down.....!
Ok, I'm down! (Molly - he is only half your size!!)
Finally the little pickle settles down, cheeky thing
Thank gooodness for that - he does sleep sometimes


I think I'll just sit up here for a while out of harm's way and recharge my batteries.

It is fun having another little puppy here to take out on walks and play play play!

Love Molly, Gertrude and little Shane

It's getting hot!

Caught!

It has been quite hot these last few days and we were beginning to look a little woolly,

so daddy decided to get the clippers out......

Gertrude certainly looks rather relaxed about it!

And THIS is why!

Because she knew daddy was transforming her into a

beautiful stylish young lady.

Look at her pose!

Is this my best side?

And me? Well, I thought I looked pretty good too!

Gertrude again....

Love from two smart summer Airegirls

(ps - it was daddy's birthday last week - a big one apparently.....

Happy Birthday daddy)

Strange things arrive....

Hmmmm......

What's this then.......?

This funny big black thing arrived at our house the other day. Gert was a little scared of it (she's scared of anything that moves) but I reckon we'll get used to it.

Daddy told us it was where our little brother will sleep and sit - and the best bit about it is, it means he can come out on big walks with us - yippee!

Some of our frineds have told us that the big black tray underneath is where all the puppy treats will go, so we'll just have to wait and see about that.
You see - Gertrude did get brave enough to come and sit next to it for the photo.

Here I am having a little natter and nose-poke with my baby brother. We do bark at him quite a bit, so he'll know who we are when he arrives. I think he knows me quite well already!

Do you like my close-up?? Mummy and daddy finally got a new camera that will take nice clear photos of us without blurring. Apparantly it is the same as the Thuglets' camera - and Molly and Taffy's - so it comes with great recommendations! Thanks guys!

Why am I ALWAYS on the floor with my legs in the air, and Gertie is ALWAYS standing on top of me?! (I like to play the victim, but she knows I could floor her any time I like.....)

You see, I've got my paw over hers just to keep her in check - cheeky pup.
Oh yes, it's me again! I'm not so sure about this close-up lens....!

Haha - now just look at this photo below.... What am I supposed to make of that?! That's my little sister Gertrude trying to toy with me. First she slowly crept towards me ready to pounce (I just lay down in readiness watching her trying to creep up on me - as if!) and then suddenly with a little jump and a prance she thinks she can charge at me! She is such a funny pup. We had a bit of a wrestle and a chase, which seems to be her favourite past-time.

Other big news!

A couple of weeks ago mummy took me over to a house in our town to meet Shane, a new little Dale puppy who has just moved in! We played together in his garden for a long time until he was exhausted - he has some great toys! He was a cutie pup and kept trying to jump on me.


Here's Shane with his owner below. And me, trying to be a good Airedale and set him a good example. We will introduce him to the Gertster another day.....!! Hahaha!

Hopefully when he's a bit bigger we can all go on a walk together and have a proper race around.

Look at him go - the flying pup!
Well, that's about it for now.

Lots of love from

Molly and Gertrude

Walkies with Harry!

It's Harry!!!

We were so lucky we got to go for a walk with Harry, the 10 month old Golden Retriever.

We've never met Harry before, although our mum and dad first saw him when he was a tiny bundle of goldenness....but now he is old enough to run and play with us!

Here we are all posing together in the green fields.

Harry was great to chase - and a good sparring partner for Gertrude too We love Killerton - it is so pretty in the spring sunshine
Here I am relaxing with a stick in the long grass
Oh yes....almost forgot to mention...there was quite a few cow-pats around....I couldn't help but try one on for size....

What do you think of my stylish new headgear - I thought I looked quite the bees-knees. Just like daddy's flat-cap I reckon.

There was greenery everywhere and lots of lush grass to eat

By the end of the walk, Gert and I were pretty worn out!

Oh yes - and how could we forget..... Mummy went for her 20 week scan on Wednesday so they could have a good old look at our new baby......and, guess what....

It's a boy!!!

So, sorry Persephone, it looks like we wont be stealing your name after all, or any of the other girls names for that matter.....Buster, well, we'll think about yours but no promises ok!!

Looks peaceful in there don't you think?

Love Molly and Gertrude
