Claire

Tosh took some 300 odd photos on our short overnight trip to Lake Yamanaka and this picture taken at Dog Hotel Woof dog run just has to be my favorite.

Flower Power



Tango Partner

Friends have gifted me with the most beautiful flowers for my fiftieth birthday, and I'm keeping the memory in these snapshots. Poor old Nobu was snoozing like an angel when I stuck the rose in his mouth and woke him up, but he took it in his stride and he's back to sleep again now while I blog :P I don't have so many pictures of Claire from her pirate queen angle so I like this one. Today after a good run in the park we're doing training from ten, and then we've booked a lunchtime session at a dog trimming salon to see if we can get Nobu comfy for the summer - I'm thinking show dog cut, but wait for the pics! I found Inuya after calling a place I'd seen on my walks which was less than friendly and only catered for small dogs, so I googled for grooming large dogs, and found this hit which is also about half an hour's walk from my home. The owner  kindly called me back and agreed to see us this Friday to consult on the best course of action. Apparently the owner has graduated in courses in Pet Care and Professional Pet GroomingAdvanced Course in Pet and Show Grooming from the 「CALIFORNIA SCHOOL OF DOG GROOMING」, and has also taken a course in Amimal First Aid & CPR.  I wonder if we'll be speaking English :P

Dog Plate Anjing

I try and make a point of visiting Dog cafe Anjing every Saturday when it's open - the owners are so friendly and they make such delicious doggie plates. Their two shorthaired dachshunds have got used to Nobu and Claire and no longer bark so furiously, even venturing to wander around in their vicinity. In this snap Claire is staring longingly at her bone, waiting for me to mix it and put it on the floor for her to devour. Today is Thursday, so a couple more days to wait...Here are some excerpts   from previous Saturday anjing blogs:
「クレアちゃん・信長君」♪Claire and Nobunagaも遊びに来てくれました~came by too私がこの間転んだ話しで、クレアちゃんママさんも信長君が猫ちゃんを、I was talking about how I slipped and fell the other day taking cherry blossom doggie pics, and Claire's mum talked about how how Nobunaga takes off after cats he finds!
見つけるとダッシュ!
痛々しい傷跡を見せてもらいました「汗」
She showed me the bruises-ouch!
涼と暖でも転ぶのに、クレアちゃんと信長君は大きいからね!Here am I tripping up with my wee ones, and Claire and Nobu are a tad larger!
大怪我しなくて良かったです。Good thing she's okay.

「クレアちゃん・信長君」♪Claire and Nobunaga
も遊びに来てくれました。dropped in too.
今日はクレアちゃんの、おもちゃを暖さん気に入って離さない「汗」Dan latched onto one of Claire's toys and wouldn't let go -yikes.
結局貰っちゃいました「ペコ」 He ended up keeping it - thank u :)

他のお子のおもちゃは、楽しく思うんですよね~It's funny how other dogs' toys are more exciting.
