WDB #36


“Oh man, that chicken was sooooooooo good!”


“Hmmm, I think I might just hang out here…maybe I’ll get more food!”

A dog this big should not attempt to sit on a kitchen chair, nor should it sit on anyone’s lap. My brother complained that his legs had died when he attempted to get up!

Check out other greedy (and not so greedy!) puppies over at Sweetnicks for the round-up of Weekend Dog Blogging #36!

Also…

Because I’m not aware of any Weekend DUCK blogging, I’ll just post Boris and Gwynevere here…


Gwynevere (left) and Boris (right) coming in for some food


Ain’t they beautiful?

They’re both Black Pacific ducks, and my suspicions are that Gwyn is actually the male and Boris the female - as Gwyn makes a low pitched quacking noise almonst continuously, whilst Boris makes a very soft ‘pipping’. They’re very friendly and have no problem eating bits of frozen (shelled) prawns straight from your fingers. I call them my birthday ducks as they first appeared on my birthday last year, and ever since have come to visit my pool once every few weeks! :)

Mr. Woofy, being a golden retriever (i.e. a dog breed which is bred to hunt ducks) is a bit disgruntled when they come to visit, as he can’t get into the pool to ‘play’ with them…yes…play (he’s afraid of water), but they co-exist quite well, chilling out by the pool, keeping a wary eye on each other…hehehe!

Ohhhh, the ducks are so cute!

They are very adorable :) They’ve got no problem running around my feet or being fed, but whenever I try and give them a pet, they won’t have a bar of it! :( Oh well, I’ll keep trying!

teeee! What is it with these bigger dogs thinking they are lap dogs? Chloe does the same thing - doesn’t even give it a thought that she’s going to cut the circulation off in your thighs when she hops aboard! He’s so damn cute!

Love the ducks! That’s so funny that they come to visit your pool! :D

You know what? I think it’s either little dog envy, or some kinda psychological twitch - where they don’t realize that they aren’t tiny, fluffy puppies anymore!

Hehe, Boris and Gwynny are awesome :) The first few times they came I was worried about them swimming in the chlorinated water, but Mr. Woofy’s vet assured me that they would come to no harm :D

yay !! they came back !

My interweb is weird -_-;
