IT'S A GRAND LIFE

Hey bloggies.Got an award from my buddy Bruce. Cool for cats huh? Thanks a million Brucey!





Strange. How we look-a-likie isn't it? He's a clever claws. Supervises sooping up some super doooper cars. Wag over why don't you? But be GOOD. None of that chasing business. Bruce mewed I have to list my Life is Grands for the award. Okey Dokey. Here we go.

1. I wag all over off my lead. Brings Bounty. Bonuses too. Give it a go. Last weekend I got myself Bounty with a capital B. I was sniffing with my hooter snoooter in the ferns like so ...



Next minute Mom went all giddy.Cos TADAAAAA!!!!! I put on a magic show like this......



and pulled out a poor Over the Bridge Bunny from them ferns. Yumm!!! Had him nicely clenched in my snappers for a quick snackie when I heard them naughty naughty Chanel 4 After the Watershed Words screamed at me. "Drop it" . I did. Before I even had a chance to yap "abracadabra" and tap my wand I was back on my lead. Doh. I'm a dummy. Think my brain bonce is shrinking? Or something?

2.Off lead brings Bonuses. Take last Friday in the Rugby field. What happened? I found my second bone in that Kicking (?) Field..haaaaaaaa!!!! But. No sooner I'd got that bone clenched in paws n jaws when "blablabla". Yeah. You know. Darn and damnation. Mean Mom took my bone home. Here it is. Bark about impressive.



Then this Tuesday I only found me BONE NUMBER THREE!!!!! WEEEHEEEEEEE!! In the woods this time. I can tell you, that got the Squares scratching their old noggins. Billy bonus for me though huh? In a word. NO. Got caught short. Ever tried to poop and and eat together? It's like patting your bonce and rubbing your belly with your paw at the same time. Or. One for the leggededs. Sit. Lift the right leg and rotate your foot clockwise, at the same time, with your right hand, draw a number six in the air. Watch 'em try that everybloggie. Will make you hoot!!! They can't do it, that footie always changes direction!!! Hehehehee!!!See??? So. back to my point.Which was it's difficult to do. Tried it? Pooping and eating together? I had to put that bone down. Course. Daddi Square swooped in and swiped my bone away. But never fear bloggies there will be another Eric Bonus Bone. I know it. Why? Silly Daddy threw that bone away in the same woods. Whoot!!! He's definately got brain shrink. Haaaaaaa!!!

3. Got my one and only sweetie Toffee pupcake. The bestest blogging pals too. That's you. Doggies. And you. Kitties. You too. Leggededs. Please take this Life is Grand Award from me to you.(Remember to list your grands)



4. Shucks. It's my barkday this weekend. I'll be three. Toffee Mom's too the day before mine. Golly Gosh. I'm in good company. Barking Happy Birthday to you TM! Hope you get oooodles of stuffies. Anyways. Been mighty troubled bout using up my Terrible Two's by their sell by date. But phew. No need. Had a most most pawsome thought. Going to convert my Terrible Two's to Triple Troubles. Smart move eh? And decided not going to use them troubles till next week. Cos the Squares might've got me a huge marrow bone for my barkday. Plus there's this super special box ....



just out of reach. From my sweetie pupcake. Guess What .That box. It's stuffed full of snoggies!!!!! For doggies. Woarrrrr!!!!!!!



Can hardly wagging wait.

WHAT'S IN A NAME ?

Petey tagged me for the name game. All about me.

What is your name? I've got a few. First one was given to me by the Foster Furs.



Called me Spot.Where they expecting Dalamations? I was also christened at the Kennel Club with my Pee Degree name. Hair Trix! Ha ha!! All five of fur sibbys are Hair something or other. But I'll tell you bout that another bloggie. That's handsome me, second on the right. And this is me as Spot chasing Fur Mom Diva. Before I had to leave her.



Got me a third name when the 2 leggededs took me home. It was a long drive. Took fur ever too. Over 6 hours. They yipped and yapped back and forth bout what to call me all the way. I could hear them. Between chucking. Snoozing. Peeing. Cuddle Breaks. "Want a traditional old name. For an old fashioned sort of dog. Don't want a name any other dog has. "Walter? Cyril? Reg? Mom rooted for that one.Cecil? Edwin? Claude? Wilfred? Clive? Yes. Clive.They still like that one. 200 miles further on Daddi Square said "Got it! Eric!" "Never heard of a dog called Eric!" For some reason this made them snort with laughter. Guess I'm dog-a-blogging grateful considering the alternatives.



My first day as Eric. Do I look an Eric to you? It sort of niggles. Everyone giggles when they hears my name. What's so funny?



Here's me, now Eric, with one of the stuffie Wheelies. See how he's spying on me? Watching my every pretty puppy move? Yes Wheelies. I was on to you from the tender age of ten weeks.

Eric Dastardly giving that silly straw stuffie a good going over. Look how I'm laughing Darstardly as he bonks his old noddle and nose on the floor. Tee,he,he!!

Other names? Well Daddy Square sometimes calls me Eric Slow Hound. Bit of a joke on the other famous Eric. Eric Clapton. That old rocker. His nickname is Eric Slow Hand. Get it? And Square Dog. Suprisingly often I'm called Good Boy too. My newest name I gave myself after reading my Dog Book from Simba. Eric Dastardly.

If you could change your name, what would it be? Change my name? Too right I would. Who wants some old 2leggededs name when you're a four footed dog? Not me. I would have a proper dogs name. Like Butch. Champ. Rover. Or Bonzo. Bonzo!!! That's the one, properly pawfect. Tell me,if 2 leggededs can change their name by Deed Poll, can I change mine by Dog Poll?

What's your pet's name? Pets? I don't have ANY pets. Oh-oh. Mom says I do. What!! No!! Surely not!! Don't mean the silly wheelie stuffies? Not proper pets. Don't let me pet them. Never pawlite to me. I'll only going to tell you their names as I know what the next question is. And I so want to answer it. Here goes. The Wheelies who live here are called Bertie, Jeeves, Wooster, Enid Wheelie on Wheels and that waste of space, Wally Wednesday.Who is NEVER going to blog on a Wednesday. Or any other day of the week. EVER. NEVER.

If you could change your pet's name, what would it be? This is good!!! I'm liking this question. A lot. Course I would re-name them. Bertie - Scram, Jeeves - Clear Off , Wooster - Shove Off. Wally - Good Riddance. Enid Wheely on Wheels - Push Off . Ha,ha,ha,hha,haa!!!

What's your brother or sister's name? Brother Otis. His Pee Degree name is written in Russian. Strange huh? He's a Blue Kittie. Of the Russian sort. A Russian Blue. Can I ask you? Does he look Blue too you? Mmmm. Thought so. He looks sort of grey to me too. Only 6 months older than me and thinks he's a dog. Cos that's what I tell him. Doesn't go outside so doesn't know any different. Never going to know as no one will tell him...errr...unless you do.

Otis started as he meant to go on. Top Cat. Always getting one over on me.

Or is it getting me over?

If you could change their name, what would it be? Easy. Buddy. My brother and my best buddy.
