bath time


I know that dogs have very differant taste to humans when it comes to perfume scents, and Layla is no exception.  Whilst out walking she has been stopping off at every perfume testing counter known to dog, and Im not talking about the Myers perfume counter either!  I dont even want to recollect the sample bottles that she has collected, albeit to say the scent stuck.
So she has been banished to her outside bed until we could muster the time to call it "bath day", which came around saturday evening.  Layla hates having a bath, particulary when she has spent so much time making just the perfect synergy a la dog, but we couldnt stand it any longer. 
So on Sunday morning she joined me for our monthly environment planting morning and she was so excited by the early morning sunshine, other dogs to play with and generally just being alive that she showed her happiness by jumping in the creek.
What can I say, we will always be in disagreeance about the type of scent that she chooses, but the washing photos are priceless.

A teaspoon of sunshine

Last weekend down here in Victoria on the coast we got a day of sunshine that was warming to the bone.  It has been raining and Im not complaining- we need it, but a little bit of sunshine was just the vitamin D that Layla and I were looking for.  Sunshine is the easiest way to get vitamin D, just 15 minutes of morning sunlight can make you smile all day.
So when I saw layla just sun bathing like a princess, with not a worry in the world, I joined her!!!! I urge you to take 10 minutes out of the day to just lie in the warmth with you 4 legged mate and do nothing.
