Tennis. The greatest sport invented since fetch. I haven’t played, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE my tennis ball!
It tastes like rainbows
I’m not sure why I do this, but every time somebody comes home to the house, I find my tennis ball and put it in my mouth. I then carry it around with me for ages and sometimes I groom it.
Here’s me watching a random game of tennis in mum’s room – I was even lucky enough to catch the ball when it went out. I slow mo’ed it so you can enjoy it for even longer 😉
I kind of thought I was being a really original dog being the only one to blog. But the other day, I heard mum talking about this other blog…and then I did some research, and it turns out theres a whole bunch of them!
In the end, I actually found some good stuff. So for all you dog owners/potential dog owners out there, have a look at this blog:
You can find all sorts of knowledge about breeds, puppy care, healthcare and training, and it is written in an informative manner. There is also a large community of people sharing their know how. I might nudge mum in that direction so we can learn more together!
A fellow wordpress user has also caught my attention. This blog is fantastic for finding out about products a dog owner might like to buy and handy tips for training your dog, which is imparted to you in a more conversational way. (I don’t think mum needs to know about this one, I’m already spoiled and VERY well trained thank-you!)

I really support animal shelters rehoming dogs (and cats… I suppose!). I think it’s really sad that so many of my cousins aren’t really wanted/are poorly treated. If you are thinking about getting a pet, please contact your rescue shelter before paying a lot of money for a puppy – when you get an animal from a shelter, you know what kind of personality it has and it is guaranteed to love you all the more! Here is an excellent blog with information about dogs needing rehoming, covering every single breed imaginable in many locations throughout the UK.
Anyway, I hope that helps if you need any dog info!
I look like a dog.
I squeal and snort like a pig.
I gallop like a horse.
I gobble like a turkey.
When my bum is rubbed I lift up my head to look like a seal.
I have ears like a bat.
I have a tongue like a lizard.
I am every animal.
Here’s a video to check out some of my noises!
Hi! My name is Boo and I am a black and white staffie whippet cross. I have just started a new life in my forever home (a name used by rescue shelters to describe a second/third/etc permanent home) so I decided to share all the new experiences I have.
I have a bit of a mysterious background, and a somewhat celebrity one. Originally, I was born on the farm of the original drummer from The Clash. I’m not sure of exactly what happened next because I don’t have a very good memory. What I do know is that after this, I got a new mum, and she took me around for a bit until she gave me to my second dad because she was a bit poorly. Eventually, my dad decided he couldn’t keep me anymore, so I ended up with my FOURTH owner, and definitely best, my new mum, Sarah.
Let me tell you a bit more about my life. My old dad doesn’t know exactly when I was born, but he thinks I might be 2 or 3 years old. Unfortunately, a few months ago I had a seizure and I swallowed my tongue. My old dad thinks that maybe it was epilepsy, but mum says that it might be a hereditary staffie disease. The vet still isn’t sure 😦 I hope I never have one again, it was really frightening!
Since I moved to my forever home, I have had a few obstacles to overcome. I’m used to being an only child, but now I have a brother and sister! They are these weird little creatures – mum says they are called cats – and they are HORRIBLE! They make these strange hissing noises and sometimes jab their paws at me and scratch! I certainly don’t like them at all.
Although, at least Rascal, the ragdoll cat, has something in common with me. He is a bit of a celebrity too! His twin brother, Socks, is one of the Blue Peter cats. I would never tell Rascal this, but I think he is the looker of the pair 😉 And I suppose, it’s not all bad; my sister Gizmo is starting to grow on me a bit. Sometimes she climbs up on the bed with me and mum when we are sleeping. I guess she might be okay.
Anyway, I need to go for my walkies now to catch some squirrels (more on this later!) so I will update soon. *arf*
P.S. Please take part in my poll. I just can’t decide myself!
Me!
