Magnus Wednesday 30th March

Happy Easter all.  Been chasing my football around rather than an egg. Skinned my paw a bit but a guy just plays on.  Of course I left a blood trail in the house.  Pam wasn't very happy.
Been back at the vet but, Yippee, I didn't need to go.  In fact I just stayed in the car.  It was Bitch Face who went in.  She gets excited about going in cause she gets to see Colin.  I don't think I'll ever get excited about the vet.  There was one dog there last time who kept begging his owner not to take him in.  Poor dog had his paws round his owner's waist and was looking up at her whining.  Made me feel a lot better.  Apparently, the Princess made a lot of noise in the vet's.  Whine, whine, moan, moan.  We can just hear her.

I must agree, Happy Easter all.  Still have a red bandage on my tail but Colin says I've healed up really well.  I'm just so healthy.  Didn't get to see him last time, just the nurse.  I made a lot of noise to let him know I was there.   He must have been very busy not to have come and seen me.  I mean I'm one of his star patients!  Anyway, not licking or chewing my tail.  I want it to heal with just a little scar.  Us girls like our scars to be invisible.  Don't want our good looks messed with.
Big Boy is complaining about a skint paw.  Huh! He has no idea!

Magnus Wednesday 23rd March

I've had a great time with Ewen.  We found a football and we've been playing with it.  I'm really good at football.  I can close down a ball no problem.  Tackling Ewen, brilliant.  Side stepping.  I am very good at this. I could go pro.  Mirren doesn't join in.  Too rough.  Means I get to play with Ewen and the ball without a girlie joining in.  Excellent.

Other than that..don't know what the fuss is about.  Mirren has a bandage on her tail?!  So what?  Happens to me all the time.

Mirren Wednesday 23rd March

I've been mutilated!.  Pam was giving me a brushing on Sunday.  She felt, rightly I have to say,  that my hair was getting a bit clumpy.  She was busy on my tail when she found a lump.  It was most embarrassing.  It was underneath, up near my bottom.  Well, panic!  I had to go and see Colin on Monday.  I was glad Pam had brushed me because I do like to look good when I go to see Colin.  He said I had to have an operation right away.  He checked Big Boy's tail too but his attention was just for me.  Tuesday I had to go in first thing.  Fortunately, it was just a cyst.  I know have a big, blue bandage on my tail.  They might have given me pink.  Nice nurse. 
Anyway, let Pam and Ewen know I was upset they left me, even if it was with Colin.  Howled ALL the way home and ignored them for a while.  Felt better after lots of cuddles and biscuits.  I mean I had nothing to eat for ages.  Slept a bit too.

St Patricks Day ..........

Magnus  Thursday 17th March

Happy St Patricks day to you all.........

Magnus Tuesday 15th March

Good times.  Weather's good.  Great walks, toys, water dishes and food.  What more does a guy need.  Now Pam's on our walks, we have all of these.  I play with Ewen and Pam plays with Bossy Boots.  Bossy Boots wants ALL the toys, especially the one I'm playing with.  Ewen plays tug of war with me and then we run away from her.  Bossy Boots is Mirren by the way, NOT Pam.  I'm having fun.  Then when I'm thirsty Pam now has portable water and dish.  She's so organised.

Mirren Tuesday 15th March

I am just so much faster than him.  I am also incredibly good at running pick ups.  Pam says so.  She says I can pick an object up of the ground while going flat out.  She says Monty used to do this too.  Must be the breeding.  Big Boy has actually been cantering.  He gets dragged along by Ewen.  It's really funny.  He bears a remarkable resemblance to Scooby Do.
Pam is very organised.  The new drinking dish is fabulous.  Personally I think it's a dish to me but more like a nose bag to Big Nose.  As to the Bossy Boots comments!  Wait till I get him trying to sneak food out of my dish.  That's the end of my generosity.

Magnus Tuesday 8th March

Whoo hoo!!   I can limbo.  So proud.  Flattened myself and crawled under a fence.  Pam and Ewen were so proud of me.  We were out for one of our long, riverside walks.  I like going on them.  Bit muddy because it had snowed again  and melted.



 

 I hope it makes up for the fact they weren't quite so proud of me yesterday, when I ate a pound of extra strong, vintage cheddar.  Have had cheesy farts all night.
It was their fault though.  They shouldn't leave anything on a work top.  With my height and my nose. ..........nothing gets away.

Mirren Tuesday 8th March

Can I make it quite clear that the limbo thing was NOT that spectacular.  He climbed up a hill to avoid the steps.  He couldn't get back on the path.  Ewen tried to send him back down the slope but he decided to flatten himself and crawl under a fence.  Scared of the steps.  Personally, I'd just have jumped over it.
Liked the fact that Pam brought my new, portable, blue water dish with her on the walk.  She remembered I don't drink out of rivers or puddles.  She's a good girl!
I was particularly fed up yesterday when he stole the cheese.  He never offered me any.

Magnus March 1st

Mirren is getting increasingly grumpy.  She was really bitchy the other day.  I try and keep out of her way but in she comes, barking away.  Nag, nag, nag.  The rest of the time all she wants to do is eat and sleep.  Been for some good walks again.  The weather is getting better and Ewen says we don't need our coats anymore.  Really pleased about that.  I like to run with the wind in my hair.

Mirren 1st march

Humph! Which girl wouldn't get grumpy.  I am very hungry and yes, I have heard the "putting on weight" words again.  I think it's coming out of the winter that does it.  My coat is just not as silky as it should be.  I think I am going to have a word with Pam about some girlie time.
As to Magnus running with the wind in his hair??? That'll be right! He doesn't run fast enough.  He trots.
