Just a Dog?

My friend Charmaine from Pets as Therapy sent me a beautiful note about Just a Dog. I loved it so much, I created this little slide show about it for Norman. Thanks Charmaine for the awesome note, it really meant a lot to me.

Hi,
I came across this blog yesterday.
I am also an owner of an almost 3-year-old wire foxterrier named Bziku (in translation: cuckoo, nuts, crazy).
Bziku had a life-saving surgery 2 months ago. A piece of a plastic toy (that he ate...of course), got stuck in his bowels.
When I look at Norman's photos it's as if I saw Bziku.
Reading your posts from april and may 2009 was very diffcult for me, because with every line that I read, the fear that I've been feeling for the last 2 months grew bigger and bigger. I just couldn't stop crying...
I cannot imagine what you felt when you lost your dog, but I do know the fear of losing a beloved dog. Because he is to me like my own child :)
But there's also a bright side of it all. It's great to discover that somewhere out there live people who are as crazy about their dogs as I am.
I hope your heart will stop aching one day.
Wish you all the best.
Maggie.

Stripping a WFT is Cruel !

A message from Norman's Mom: As many of you can see (and know) my love for Norman (and all animals in general) is alot. He's growing up now and its getting time for his first trim. I have investigated stripping and I want all WFT owners to understand how strong I feel about NOT STRIPPING him and why. (the pic below can be enlarged for a wallpaper on your pc or cell phone) Why do you STRIP your Wire Fox Terrier: because they say so because everyone else does it to their WFT because its healthy because it brings out the colour because thats what you are supposed to do well, I say all of the above is -to say the least- BS: because they say so: so many people own animals and do with them what the 'breed' guidelines require for them to do. There is absolutely no reason why you have to follow the breed guidelines when it comes to stripping your dog. I say : if the animal is in any way inconvenienced or discomforted, then what THEY SAY is wrong. Its 2007. Those rules ...

My trip to see the Flowers in Langebaan

Hello everyone! Guess where we went today!? You gotta believe it... ... to see the flowers in Langebaan. Jippeee! The west coast of Southern Africa becomes a floral paradise towards the end of our South African winter. Doggies from all over the world come here for endless sniffing and playing. There are so many flowers this time of year, we dont know where to sniff. Boogie and I were not too sure where to start sniffing. There are also lots of mousie holes around here... eh... just a mo, I think I found something here. Lets go to the water Boogie? The Langebaan lagoon is declared a nature sanctury. Mom sez this is where she comes often during the windy summers. I look forward to coming back here then. That seagul swims way faster than we thought :-( "Not to worry, Normie. You will be able to chase many more in time to come, believe me" After a long hard day of sniffing, swimming and playing, we eventually get back into the car and take the hour drive back to Cape Town. So ...
