Dog Blog

This week I have swapped touring and recording for dog sitting…
I spoke earlier about our dog, Hobbes, who we got for free on Gumtree and makes me smile more than anything so is the definition of living happily on a shoestring!

We were such proud parents when he did this!

Well…. we have now been joined by my parents 2 dogs for the week while they ramble around Nice (nice!) and the flat has never felt so small! Apart from the constant whining of the oldest and biggest guest- Murr (yes my sister and I named him when we were young!!) the visit has been lovely… so far! It’s nice to have lots of cuddly company and a reason to walk on the Heath a lot.

*AMENDMENT* I forgot to mention the highlight of my day was a unexpected meeting on the Heath for a hot chocolate with a lovely friend who managed to tie up all the dogs together and laughter ensued! We talked about a lot of things including garden sheds as it’s still top of my agenda! Thankyou Mark! **

I thought I’d share some *nice* pictures (thanks to the Hipstamatic app on the iphone) of them galavanting on Hampstead Heath and around our place:

Here are our furry guests…
This is Tigger…
She’s a lovely Jack Russell
Hobbes loves the Heath!
And he REALLY loves showing his friends around!
This is Murr- a beautiful Lurcher.

 THE ROLL… Hobbes shows us how to do it:

Then Tigger has a go…
Hobbes’ work is done!
Its hard not to smile when walking around the Heath.

Back at home….
Hobbes comes up with some hilarious positions!
They love Stephen…
All peaceful for the night.

Oh and the Swan’s are about… with their signets:

We also spent the night putting up pictures and creating a beautiful gallery wall…
More on that soon!

Do you have a dog? Send me some pictures… shoestring@gabberdashery.com
Hope you’re all enjoying the sunshine!
Love and fluff

  1. Brill pics Gabblechops. I miss having pets 🙁 (I don’t think B counts)

  2. Just taken William Winter’s two dogs up to the Chateau, and it makes me miss mine even more. Glad to see they are so happy up north!xxx

  3. What about the mysterious handsome man you apparently met up with in the cafe for a crafty hot choccy? Where’s he!?

  4. I am so sorry for that outrageous oversight -it is now amended! Xox
