11 november… remembrance day

In our country there is a tradition: the first day of november, everybody goes to the cemetery and puts flowers on the ‘stones’… I know that, yes! But me, mum and dad do not like this very busy cemetery-days. We like it more quite and peaceful. 🙂

So, we do it different! We don’t go on the 1st but the 11th! Because 11 november is a remembrance day too! We remember all together! 🙂 ❤

I like this day! We drive to different places and we get in and out the car very often! And we make walks to see the ‘stones’. At every special stone where we stop, I sit down and whine a bit to say hello. Of course, mum, I know what it is all about… Why do you wonder and doubt that?
And then at one place mum got a bit angry: doggies not allowed! I barked! I was a bit disappointed too! I felt sorry for all those mums and dads burried here and their best fur friends can’t go and greet them? 😦 Poor friends… Sometimes the world is disappointing… 😦

Anyhow: some nice remembrance-pics!

 

Hihihi, me and… matching colours, everywhere!

The tv-typing-machine was talking to me a few minutes ago! It said: “Everyday an airedale Kita, congratulations with your jubilee!” I had to run to mum to ask when Jubilee was going to come. As always, mum was laughing at me… A pity I could not ask grandpa: he called me the little one but understood you can’t know everything.
Anyway, mum explained it when she stopped laughing: jubilee is not a dog but a kind of anniversary. Exactly four years ago I told my first story! 🙂
First story
And a few days later the first real fototoot! Well, here you are permitted to laugh with! 😉
First fototoot
And a few days later... Trees loosing fur!

I think life is quite a series of replays… but that is allright! Oh yes: it means that these days trees lose their fur again! You can walk and run and play in that fur and it makes such nice noises. I love the sound of the fur of the trees! ❤
But most of all, me and mum, we love the colours of the fur of the trees in this time of year! Oh yes… And the big news: colours match with my colours! 😉

So we are very happy life is a series of replays! ❤ Soon, maybe it will snow again and afterwards the trees get new fur… and so on! Lovely, don’t you think so! Enjoy it, friends! 🙂

Unbelievable! Incredible!… So many… airedales!

Mum, where are we going? Yes, yes, I get out of the car and I follow you!

Mum, look! Another airedale! Mum! Mum! Mum! Lots of sirs and ladies! My dogness! Mum, I am not dreaming, am I? I bark! No, I’m awake. This is really true! Mum, we never saw so many airedales together! 🙂
Mum, are we in airedale heaven? 😉

No, Kita, in Rockanje! For a nice walk with the folks and dales of ATVN!

Mum, my foreign friends will never believe this! Please, make a very big fototoot. Then I can show all the fun to my friends!
Mum, and we can run off leash here! This really is paradise! Mum, this is fun! See you later! 🙂

Oh, here you are, mum. Glad you used the whistle-language… lost you for a moment between all these dales and mums and dads! 😦

Hahaha! Normally it is the other way around! 😉

Mum, look, here is Duc! He is from Belgium too! 😉 He is a nice big guy, isn’t he? ❤

PS I “forced” mum to put all the pics here, I could not choose, you see! My Dutch friends surely want to see them all and find themselves in them! 😉 And maybe my foreign friends too! 😉

PPSS Now it is time for a very BIG nap! 

My dogness… great holidays!

Well, I am exhausted… I really am! How that comes?

My mum and dad were having a city trip. I know what that is: sometimes we make a city trip to the old city of Antwerp. We go and have a look at lots of things. I like city trips, you know! So I was a bit angry when mum and dad were talking about the city trip and… i could not come. I really was disappointed! 😦 But I was not for long, oh no!!!

I was going to holiday mum’s place! I knew it when mum was making my little bags of food for every day! 🙂 Yes, indeed! I spend almost a week at holiday mum’s place! Go figure! The fun we had!

Friends of this week? Suka, Nuggett, Balou and Lokum… We played and played… I even destroyed several squeezing animals and holiday mum was not angry at all! We played with the rests of them! hahaha 🙂 We were playing with a ball inside and we got it under the cupboards and then we told holiday mum to get it for us! 😉

So much fun ❤ , but now I am exhausted… I’m sleeping all day… I add some pics of my very tiring trip to holiday mum and some of mum’s trip too! 😉 (after mine of course! Click on Venise!)

Running business… on my mum’s head!

Promised you several days ago I would show you my adventures on the beach… But my mum was too much time at the library and I can’t use the tv-typing-machine when she is not supervising. 😦

Quite something! I was running on my mum’s head. 😉 And on her legs too! 🙂
She first did not see it, I had to tell her twice! Look at the pics! You’ll see it!

And then I was looking on the beach and there was another Kita! ❤

Ooooh, and look at the Halloween picture! Mum says I’m lady-Kita-Vampire. I do not know what she means but it must be funny because she really laughs with it! 😉

 

Action on… sunday!

Today was well filled.

This morning a big run on the beach! Those pics and video are for tomorrow… I’m too tired now! 😉
Then me and mum we thought we should share some colours with you: so we made a colour-fototoot. And no, I’m not in the pics but they are beautiful, these colours, even without me! 🙂

This afternoon, we went to see the football of the human son of my mum’s sister. As always I was a very nice lady and waited patiently (with a bully stick of course!) untill the football-vip arrived. But then: cuddling times! ❤

And now, I’m very tired! Go figure! Not one nap in this whole sunday!!! 😉

4, 700… and 1!

Antwerp, 20th october 2015

Dear grandpa Lennox

Tomorrow, the 21st of october, it will exactly be one year since you left us for the Rainbow Bridge. In my eyes, that’s quite some time ago and I thought I should write you a letter to give you a bit of news! ❤

How are you doing over there? Did you meet all your friends of the dogpark-gang? And did you meet my oversea’s friends who came after you? I asked them all to say hello to you? Well, did they? 😉

And here? That’s quite a story!
We have been very, very busy! All my businesses are a nice success! Running business, inspecting business, water business, fishing business, bunny-chasing business, digging business… you know: I’m a very busy lady. You surely remember that! 😉

Oh, yes, I have to tell you this! You know mum is busy too, you know her! Yes, she still works at the library, but now, at home, she does less reading. What does she do? Well, she is crocheting a lot. Now I have to deal with all kind of new members in the household! Even a copyKita! Go figure! 😉
I add some pics with this letter, you’ll see! Since you are not here anymore, strange things happen!

Oh, my dogness, I can’t forget to tell this: you would have been jealous, my dogness, yes! I get new food these days! We get it in the shop of the human pup! And twice a week I get fresh meat out of the very, very cool box! My dogness, it is a pity you miss this. You should have stayed a bit longer! 😦 You were the eating champion, not me! But mum says, with this meat I get your habits… not too ladylike though! 😦

And this little one does something you never did! 😉 I go on escalators with dad! Go figure! You said I would never dare! You see! Proof is in the pics! And something else!!! I have met mini-buffalo-sheep! No, don’t laugh at me!! We are very good friends. Proof again in the pics. 😉

Yes, we were very busy! When you left for the Bridge, I told 500 stories! One year later, so that’s now, I told 700 stories! Again: proof is in the pics! Yes, grandpa, in four years time I told 700 stories! Seven hundred stories! You don’t believe me? As usual! You did not change a bit! Look for yourself on my storypage! 😉

And we got more then 3000 clicks on post 500! Did you see that from the Bridge? I add the link with all the memories of the two of us… so you can have a look at all those good times! You surely remember them all! ❤
At least, we do! Me, and mum an dad, we often talk about you! Dad often says you were a phenomenal dog, the best dog ever… I agree, if I’m also the best dog ever! 😉 🙂 Let’s put it this way: in this household you were the best doggie-sir ever and I am the best doggie-lady ever! 😉

Grandpa, it’s getting late and it’s bedtime over here. Are you still awake up there, at the Bridge? Anyway: goodnight to you all over there!

Big hugs and wet kisses,

Kita, better known by you as “the little one”

PS Here is the link with all the memories… ❤   Memories

 

 

Me?… Having the strangest friends???

Grey mornings on the beach aren’t that bad at all! This morning was grey but I had fun! 🙂

From far away mum can see what I’m up to, she always says! She calls that body language! Whatever: ppssst-language, whistle-languaga, body-language… I don’t care about that! Or maybe a bit about the whistle-language: that means treats! 😉

So, she saw it immediately that I found a new friend to play with! She was taking pics… she sometimes does… accidently… Mum says I have to show the pics: other mums and dads will understand the body language! What on earth is she talking about? 😉

Anyhow: she saw from far away that I was playing with a new friend and she hurried to come and see it! 🙂 And then she filmed! And we did put my friend back where it belongs… that’s what mum wanted!!!! 😦
I was looking for him afterwards, but did not find him!

PS Mum says I also should tell I swallowed a dead very little one like that later on… 😦 Result: end of the grey-morning-fun! On the leash!!!

Walking together with my … mini-buffalo-sheep-friend!

Lot of mornings we do big walks, not to the huge dogpark, but elsewhere. Very often we pass by the house and garden of the mini-buffalo-sheep-friends.

I’m best of friends lately with the mister of the household! ❤
By the way, since a few weeks, there are three of them! 😉
So, the mister walks along with me and mum. But I often have to wait, I’m faster as he is. So I wait for him, just as I waited for my grandpa Lennox! 🙂

Yesterday morning, finally, my mum filmed it. She often said it but she always forgot. But now, you can see it too! 😉

Update-newsflash about… my detective-sniffing-skills!

Really… my dogness, what did they expect?

Last saturday we went to see the human pup in her shop! For the new friends: that’s a pet-shop with good food and treats and toys and coats and… a lot of things. Dad and mum and the human pup were wondering if I could find my own food in the very, very, very cold box! 😉

Really! Go figure! Do they think I am a food-dummie or something? 😉

All around the shop I hear: leave it! Human pup opened the very cool box and said: Choose your food! One sniff, only one sniff and I indicated my food! What did they expect? Tell me! You do not fool around in the food-sniffing-business! You sniff yourself right to the food-goal! ❤

Human pup said: BRAVO! And I got a treat: cake out of her cake box!. Hahaha, this is an easy business! Then I got a lot of presents too, because one week earlier it had been World Animal Day! At home I got a toy and…destroyed in less than a quarter of an hour. I was quite proud of myself, you see that in the pic! 😉 🙂

PS We bought a lot of food and now it is in our own very, very, very cool box!!!!
