Dora was the one to get muddy today. She disappeared off on our walk and didn't come back for ages. This is something she does sometimes usually when I am in a hurry. The Malinois never go very far, they like to keep an eye on me to make sure I don't don't get lost, and are very quick to find me again if I disappear, but Dora likes to go off on her own hunting sometimes. and can be gone for what seems like hours but is actually usually only a few minutes.
When she reappeared today she had obviously been in the creek as she was black all over. her tan legs were completely hidden so she got a showwer today much to her disgust. I think now the mornings are lighter I will look for other walks as hardly a day goes by without one or other of the dogs getting plastered with mud. It was funny to start with but I am getting a bit fed up of it now.

I put one of the dog beds outside this morning as Ruby likes to snooze outside in them and she and Saffy decided it was a good place to have a fight!



Ruby curled up like a poor abandoned stray in her bed on the patio. Until I started putting the bed out there she used to look even more unwanted lying flat out on the concrete. She prefers to be outside.
