Late from Sunday Pirate - was the kind of day where hiding under branches in the corner of the garden seemed an appealing life approach.
This world & its conflicts 😟

Pirate collected his toys & would squeeze into his junior bed.

Mood - today was lots of irritating, frustrating little things. Not Pirate obvs but his pensive face matches mine.

Pirate - sometimes in photos he doesn't look that big. He is actually rather large & eats & drinks a lot. 😂

Absolutely - he's still a terrible thief to get the 'drop' reward.

Are the gorgeous duo still with you?

This was Pirate's birthday collar to go with the grinz ball. I haven't yet managed to time it right so he has the teeth showing like the dog in the advert.😂

He's slowing down a lot more now he's 11 but he's such a wonderful, life enhancing dog.

When i had the "bright" idea of trying to make Pirate wear waterproofs. He was goodnatured enough to get into them once...

When he was still little enough to be lifted onto the garden table & brushed. His paws 🥰

48 hour party dog event for my darling Pirate's 11th birthday. So many treats & his favourite foods & pressies.
Pirate is a rescue boy - from info fellow sib rescuers & i found (4 others were also in rescue) we discovered his big litter (11) had a rough start.

Pirate was such a norty young dog he grew horns.

The ones with the teeth on. He still has all his teeth but ..just in case a toy & turkey teeth. 🤣🤓

I got the blue 'cos apparently dogs see blue/yellow best & this will be different from his Kong tennis squeakee balls.

Awww Sasha & Molly sleepover will be fun. Hide your paperwork!

My gorgeous & adored Pirate under the bottle brush.

With all the furore re the island of strangers comment I looked up Powell's 67 Rivers of Blood speech & read it closely. I had been aware of its general themes.

Been digging up a pretty but redundant path in 👵's garden. The bullnose edging bricks are lovely & from the quaintly named Cattybrook Brick company.

This was from a few years ago. 🤣
