I’m a young Airedale Terrier living my best life in Australia. I’m trying to train my Hoomans - they’re showing promise but it’ll take time. I have a Master’s degree in naughtiness. 😈
I’m having a snuggle on the couch with HooMum this afternoon. It’s comfy up here and nice getting lots of pats. Also, I have a great view of the fireplace and out across the paddock from here.

Hope you’re having a fab weekend, doing things you enjoy. 😊

I don’t think I do. I have my Boston Terrier pal Lucy. And my Cairn friends … Let me think about it and I’ll come back to you if I think of who it might be. 🤔

Hey Winston pal @winstonthewoofer.bsky.social - a friend sent me this image of Airedales playing Cricket - thought it might give you & Himself a laugh. I think our games might be slow going - imagine how long it’d take to get the ball back from the fielders. 🤣😆🤭

Yes, I’d be happy to do that. 🎶🎼🎵

To all my pals in North America & everywhere really, #happythanksgiving.

I’ve been thinking about what I’m grateful for, and friendship is my #1. I'm thankful for your friendship and all the good times we've shared on BlueSky 🦋.

I hope you have a great and happy thanksgiving day. 🥧

Hi pals - happy Thursday! ✋
This is my favourite toy, Mr Crocodile - he used to belong to my fur-bro Toby 🌈 and was a gift from HooGran. He is very well made and has so far survived games with me unscathed. Amazing!

Oh OK. I’d love to go with you ladies. Thanks for the invite.

Shove over HooMum, it’s my turn to use the footstool now. It’s just the right height for me. 😁

Did it fly over your house?

We seem to only have crappy old planes and helicopters for fire fighting, but then our state is a bit broke. 😠

Lovely dogs! Water’s such a great way for us to cool down on hot days. 🥵🥵 I think they might need a little pool like mine too though.

HooDad went for a medical check up today which freaked me out. When he came home there was no way I was letting him out of my sight. Anyway, his feet made a very comfortable pillow for me. Doc said he’s recovering well. 😅

We saw a little kangaroo family on our street when out walking today. If you zoom in close and look at the kangaroo on the far right, you’ll see how huge an adult male can be. He’d stand taller than HooMum and has very well developed muscles. Treat with respect I say.

Thanks Luna, I will. I don’t like cockatoos - they’re big and loud and very bossy. Here’s one on our verandah last summer - he was about 40cm tall 😱 and not scared of Hoos at all. I’ll show him if he comes back this year. 🤨

Well done Lucy - stink up the house! Do you get dried off with towels when you get home wet? I do. Plus my friend Pebble @olakwiecien3.bsky.social sent me a dog robe and that helps my fur to dry out quickly.

Hi pals! I was out walking this afternoon, and look what I found in a front yard. Reindeer, a sleigh and lots of sparkling lights … 🎄Just saying for anyone who may be listening, that I’ve been a very good boy recently. 🎅

Hi pals - I think I’ve got my time zones all mixed up and it’s too early for the Anipal Holiday Bizarre. 😱

I’ll drop back in again Sunday morning our time - maybe that’ll work. Hope to catch up with you all then. 🤞

So yesterday was fur-cut day with my favourite groomer Steph. She’s very nice to me, so I’ve forgotten all about being stressed about them. HooMum asked for the short summer ‘utility’ style which’ll be good on hot days, but I do think it makes my head look a bit big and boofy.

Smart Dad you have there Luna. Less wet towels is good.

The groomer was very kind to me but I had to have a bath(!!) first then stand still for what felt like hours. 😤 Not my favourite way to spend a Friday for sure.

Have a great weekend pal.

About 20m from our front door, we saw these two young kangaroos play fighting this morning. They were having a great time and didn’t even notice us watching them. They were very sproingy - almost like they were on pogo sticks.

Yes yes yes! We had heaps of fun. 🤩 Here’s a little video for you.

Brilliant detective work Charlie and Susan! That’s exactly what was happening. We had a fab time together, finishing off with a game of tug. (I lie down to give Lucy a better chance.)

Can you guess what I was doing this afternoon?

Hey pals - looked who we bumped into this morning.

Not dangerous at all Dougal. Succulents are plants that are adapted to life in hot and dry locations. They are very hardy and don’t need much care. Can be very attractive too, in a stark sort of way - some examples in the photo.
