I can’t believe it has been over four months since we welcomed our dog, Dot into our lives. It’s as if she has always been here. Although she was quite nervous at first, she has settled into living in an urban setting. I wrote about driving to the Andalucian mountains to get her here.
Like parents of a newborn, we have taken tons of pictures of her. Here are a few. Believe me, it was hard to narrow it down.
Enjoying her new toy, but what she really likes to play with are our socks!.
She also likes playing with her ball
Please, dad, can you throw the ball again?
She enjoys going for walks on the beach
But she doesn’t like to get her feet wet
Sometimes she meets another dog at the beach and gets to play
A special play date with Havane, her friend from France
She loves to play with other dogs.
Dot is popular with the neighbourhood children who bring her treats
Our special young friend is a good buddy
She sure loves her dad!
and she loves her mom too. She goes with us just about everywhere we go.
You can see she is quite a character and keeps us busy. Whatever did we do without her?
Farewell to Andy
Posted on: September 5, 2012
It was Andy’s last weekend with us. We were invited for tea at a friend’s place where he had an enjoyable time and made some new friends.
We enjoyed our tea and freshly made cranberry scones, with homemade jams, under the lovely grape arbour.
Andy made friends with Odie the cat and Blue the dog
He also explored my friend’s wonderful garden where he met pixies and another cat who didn’t move.
Andy and Monkey the cat finally started to get friendly. Monkey was even willing to share her toy with him!
The time has come for Andy to go home. He has had a good time on the west coast of Canada, but even armadillos get homesick. We are packing him up as we pack up to leave for a seventeen-day trip to Europe. You won’t be hearing much from me for the next three weeks. I will miss all my blogging friends, but there will be reports of our travels and pictures when we return.
Thanks for following Andy’s adventures with us and thanks Lenore Diane for letting Andy be our guest for the past few weeks. I can’t wait to hear of his next exploits.
