"Oh, don't tell me off, Skye . . . "
". . . Mum said I had to lie down on a bed and be good!"
November 2008

"I'm 15 weeks old now and Mum says I'm a real handful. I am bigger than Skye the husky and weigh more, but you can't tell because of my long lanky legs.

I've been remodelling Mum's kitchen cupboards. Well, I had to finish the job that Skye started, didn't I?! The doors are rounded now not square - much more stylish.

Mum says I am brave for a wolfhound. Except for the other day when I followed her to the garden shed to see what she was doing, only to hear a terrifying noise. I barked and quickly turned tail and ran inside the house - that metal shed door doesn't half make a racket!!"
"Go on, Dad, give us a kiss!"

"I am almost eight months old now and getting big. I love gardening and have redesigned Mum and Dad's garden for them. There were far too many plants, so I dug some up and ate them. Mum said that it was lucky none off them were poisonous. And she was really cross with me for eating Boru's memorial bush - well, I didn't know, did I?!

I met a dog bigger than me the other day. His name was George, and he's a St Bernard. I thought I was the biggest dog on the block - ahh well, give it time!

"Skye is always cranky with me - she's no fun anymore."
