We have moved!

We have moved to another house in the same area- Bergen. Seems however there is so much more snow here. We are out many hours each day. So fun!
Some days ago there was so much snow I couldn´t even walk. But I did anyway. One just have to get used.
Today my brother Tuffy is going to a show. Poor him! I will never go to a show again. Judges are so respectless. I do what I want! Usually the opposite to what the judges want me to do.
I´m a yorkie with principles! If they asked me nicely, I would at least think about it. But No - I wouldn´t still do it!
Today will be a nice day, a sunny winter day.
I wish all doggies could have a chance to get out! To many locked in at puppy mills & pet shops!

A dogshow with 7000 entries!

In our dog family we are both rescues and showdogs. I was a showdog - well meant to be, but I thought it humiliating to be examined by some unknown human on a table nosetip to rear in front of all other dogs. I never got used to that. Either I didn´t walk at all or like a bloodhound in the ring, walking circles or triangles or whatever silly things I was asked to do. Well, I got my three CC´s for Championship, but that was it!
Now I´m going for the "Great Stockholm 2004" with 7000 entries- but only as a supporter for my pals.
In my view all doggies are beautiful, just that they need to meet the right human to see the beauty.
Some people have doggies as substitute for children. Sure they may, just that they are aware that we must be allowed to be doggies as well. Else we will be unhappy. My happiest me is running without a leash in the woods smelling all the wonderful things there are. WOW!

DU = Dogs United

If you happen to wonder what today´s primary photo is about, I tell you:
So many doggies need help from humans since they have been unlucky to be owned by non dog lovers. Yes, I thought only dog lovers got dogs, but there are a great deal of money lovers who get dogs too, unfortunately. They love money more than their doggies!
You know we have to discuss that- everyone- and do something to stop it.
So many humans don´t even know about puppy mills: Huge doggie factories, who breed doggies for profit, often with no Veterinary involvement and very little food & insufficient sanitary conditions. These dogs so often get ill or already are ill, when bought.
No doggies should be bought from those horrible places or from Pet shops, since 90% of pet shop doggies are bought from puppy mills. Also so often parted from their doggie moms at tender age, since they often are shipped far away and thereby they haven´t enough immunological powers to cope with diseases. Pet shop owners want puppies to look as sweet as possible, which they think they are as tiny puppies. If one "saves" one , that doggie will immediately be exchanged with another one. So the only way to stop puppy mills is to STOP BUYING.
Ok, that´s what I was saying at the General Assembly of Dogs United.
My mom happens to work for U.N. Just a coincidence.

Are you stressed up for Christmas, Doggies?

This year I have decided to be very relaxed! That means I will not prepare anything at all for my brothers, only for me!
I have my list ready for Santa: I want a mom who is home with me every day.
That way she can give me meatballs whenever I wish. Then I wish me meatballs. And some meatballs to go with them. ( I case I eat them fast)
My brothers don´t need any special gifts, not any gifts at all. They have me, what else do they need?
So as I see it, no preparations are needed, not by me at least. If mom & dad should protest, I just escape. Then they get scared and say: Oh Boris, you get what you want, just you come back! Ok, I ´ll come back. Happy End!
My, so many times the word "Meatball" is included in my diary!

My mom came home yesterday!

Yes, my mom came home from N.Y. yesterday. Fun of course, she thought it was so sweet we followed her wherever she went. Silly mom, she thought we had longed for her so much, but actually we wondered why she never gave us meatballs!
What was she thinking of? We sure must have tolerance with those humans.
We got some new squeekies. I got a turtle. To make her happy I squeeked with it some times, but they are so puppyish those squeekies. Suits my brother Tuffy Blackhead much better. I had hoped I would get some goodies - or a sportscar. (In my fantasy I´m a sportscar driver- the best there ever was).
Today we haven´t been out so much - Very cold. No idea to try to escape, which I usually try to do. Think if I should get lost and noone could find me! I could catch a cold! No, better to stay inside close to the meatballs.

We´ve got snow!

We got snow last week! Don´t really know if I like that or not! I love to sit at my rose bush, thinking of life with a doggie beer at paw! Yes, I can do that now too, but it´s really not the same. It´s cold! Can´t concentrate on thinking something smart about life, just how cold it is.
By the way girls, have you noticed I took away my wedding photo. Too many sweet girls here! Perhaps a greater chance you will come to visit my site if I took it away, I thought.
We´ll see!
Yours sincerely
Boris

So dark here in Norway now!

Yes, I know I said I like fall! As long as it is daylight! But when it´s dark I could go up to my bed and snore. Feel depressed. Someone must give me meatballs or I get REALLY sad! My mom has the stupid idea dogs shouldn´t eat human food. But she´s over the pond now,so she can´t interfere.
I love to be out running or at least guarding my rose bush. But in the dark I could get lost, horrible thought.
My brother Piff got lost once. He was gone for 6 hole hours.Mom put out a jacket for him and he did return to that jacket. 6 hours without meatballs!!
No, better stay inside when it´s dark, dreaming of walks in the sun! And meatballs when I get home!

Yesterday we celebrated "brother" Tuffy´s First Birthday!

That little puppy Tuffy has at last become 1 year. I must say I´m relieved, since this last year has been very "TOUGHY" indeed. So much ado about him, when humans could have used their time on more important things- ME!
Tuffy ended his birthday most typical though. He ate my Halloween bow. Luckily , for him , he didn´t swallow that little plastic pumpkin!
I told him he is now a grown up and must stop those puppy manners.
Else I put my paws off of him. That must make him reconsider!!

A walk in the forest

I decided to take one human for a walk in the forest. This human is often occupied doing nothing, f.e. working- that is sitting at the puter for hours doing absolutely nothing, just clicking on a silly little plastic thing. I´m sure those legs will disappear since he never uses them. My mom is abroad, so I can´t check her.
Oh Boris, do we have to get out, it´s rainy, he said my human!
Sure we do. If you don´t come I´ll escape.
ok, ok, I´ll come!
I like rain. So good to smell things in rain. Fall is my fave season, except for summer, spring and winter of course!
You know I am a very brave yorkie, all yorkies are, but especially me. There were so many odd caracters in the forest, roots & stumps they are called- look scary.
I´m sure they were scared of me too!

Now I have a diary!

I have always known I am a most important yorkie!
Just look at these times I escape from our yard! Everyone running searching. So fun to check them search inside & outside! Hehe! Under every bush under the beds, though I never go under beds. But I do feel sorry for them rather soon, so I go home all by myself. Sometimes a neighbour sees me and brings me home!
I´ll tell you about my escapes and more similiar fun things I do on these sites.
Oh yes, presenting myself- I´m Boris an eight year yorkie from Norway named Boris!
