After last week's BOAST, my dog is TOAST this weekend!!!

Despite my boasting a couple of weeks ago about what a good boy he was and how well he travelled to the bottom end of the country - on Friday night we drove for an hour and forty minutes, we arrived, I parked and heard GULP GULP GULP and went to find he had sicked up his tea. Couldn't even wait til he was out of the car.

He then settled in for the night at my friend's house, until 4am when he decided there was a cat three gardens away that he needed to bark at.
This would not do, unlike us, my friend has immediate neighbours.

I got out of bed THREE times between 4am and 5am, but each time couldn't get their back door open and ended up sticking my head out the dog flap (wearing a cow-print onesie, how chic) and hissing at him to shut his face.

He then spent the whole next day 'helping' my friend's mum IE wrecking stuff and high-fiving people in the face so instead of taking him tracking he got thrown in the van and had to sit in the car park watching the world go by while we went to a Horseware sale and bought lovely stuff :p

Ah, your turn.....


And Vizzy, I really, really hope you are back with a Milo boast this time next week xxxx

Snort!

I'm a little in the middle this week. On one hand we've had 'happy snow times'. On the other hand he's so excited by the arrival of the white stuff that his shorter toilet breaks are now epic sagas along the lines of "I shall hold in the poo, all the poo, I shall not poo for the small woman will take me back indoors. No poo!" :rolleyes:
 
A little Boast

I've got a stinking cold and completely lost my voice... Took Harley up the yard this morning, went to call him and suddenly realised I couldn't!! DOH!!!!! So I whistled (I can do that! Phew!) and he came! every single time!! Very proud of him, I have never whistled for him to come before, but he acted like I always did!

Clever boy!
 
Toast: Zak recalls brilliantly-in his own time

Boast: Bear recalls fine

Toast: Brig, at seven years old, has totally forgotten that 'Come' means right now, stop setting a bad example to the babies or you will be very bleeding sorry. I can't decide whether I have a cold coming on or just hurt my throat screaming for him.:mad:
 
Boast: Snow dog!

Toast: The resultant glue 'n stitches in my lip and mouth. Just enough snow to hide the fact that a stream had diverted across the path and frozen solid - no, I didn't have my crampons on. Two hours in A&E, a dentist's bill, meals through a straw and three unpaid days off work earnt. :rolleyes:
 
Ahh many boasts!
Barneys settled in so well you would think hes been here his whole life, hes eating and drinking well and hasnt had any accidents indoors (touch wood) and is possibly the sweetest dog ever! :D He also doesnt bark .. the door rang, alarm clock ect and not a peep :)

One little toast moment - he does pull on the lead! Stronger than he looks :o :p

Hes already proving useful as a footstool :D (sorry for the rubbish pic)

Hunny this post made me laugh so hard I was crying and then the last sentence made me properly cry :( Thanks :D

Tilly is TOAST! or actually nearly a chocolate cake she was just missing the flour cos she cant open the pantry door :rolleyes: :mad:
 
Boast-all beastly hounds came back when called,even though they were all running around like nutters in the snow:)

Toast-Teagan tried to roll me down a hill and ate the eggs before I could get across the yard to stop her:eek:


McCoy the bestest boy! x

I was crying at 5am on Saturday morning. I hope he realises how lucky he is that I couldn't fit through that dog flap.
 
BOAST: Henry was practising his 'beating' skills yesterday, staying quite close and finding his bunny dummy every time even though he never saw me hide it:D

TOAST: At our training class we were having some off-lead play, and he went up to this woman, jumped up and stuck his nose right into her treat pouch to steal all the sausage she had for her own dog:eek::o:mad:

Noooo, he doesn't look as if he's been there his whole life! You're on the sofa and he's on the floor:D

:eek: Double ouch!
 
:p

My friend's Mum, who bought it for me: "You know the worst thing? It really, really suits you."

Aye BC, glad to hear I'm not the only one who has ended up in A&E recently (that's a loooong story :p) get well soon!
 
Seconded - I winced to read that one, BC!:(

CC, I am glad to hear that you are recycling the cow in the bin into serviceable nightwear:D Very environmentally friendly of you. Well done that woman!

*snigger* Did you have to cut off bits of the legs so it would fit? (You're only wee after all) How do the cloven hooves work with toes? Two on one side, three on the other? Can't be comfy....:p

(Ooh and have an ouch from me BC, bloody snow (literally! :o))
 
Boast - Whilst out throwing Evie's ball on a rope for her, in dusk/near dark conditions, I threw it the wrong way (I throw like a girl:p) and she totally lost it. Told her to find it and she went into super search mode, really worked the area and although it took a while managed to locate it in nearly pitch black.:)

Toast - Buffy, who may not be able to see very well but can still locate frozen horse poo, and rather than get cold eating outside, brings it into the house to defrost.:(

In total agreement with CCs sentiments Vizzy, keeping everything crossed for Milo,
and Black Cob - ouch!
