Grandpa’s game? … I can it too!

Dear grandpa Lennox

Yes, I write you again! Yes, that is very soon after last letter. But I have big news! ❤

Last weekend, we went to the seaside, to the beach. Remember the game you always played with mum and dad, surely when you were younger? How you liked to run from one to the other and back, long ends and never stopping? Of course, you liked the treats… 🙂
Do you remember how you tried to teach me that game, in the huge dogpark, a few weeks before you left for the Bridge? Of course slower than before and not 40 times as you used to… And this stubborn little one would not do it so many times? You remember? You know my slogan: if I showed I understand it and I can do it, that’s enough! 😉

Well, here is the BIG news! I did it! I really did it! I played your game! On the beach! What? You do not believe me? Mum did not believe her eyes either, so she used that red thing to prove it! Quality of that video is horrible: playing and filming at the same time is not mum’s cup of tea, as you surely remember! 😉
Ask for a tv-typing-machine over there at the Bridge, put on your glasses and have a look! 😉 Don’t use your glasses with the little blooper… 🙂

Till next letter, I get my dinner soon. Should be ready for this new food!

Big hugs

Kita, the little one
(who is big now!)

 

 

Queen of terriers????… Queen of stormwind!!!

When we went out this morning for the big morning walk, it was clear enough: a lot of wind! I like that though! Although my “coiffure” is not to be shown afterwards! But this lady does not bother about that untill the grooming table and the brush are in sight! 😉

So, off we went! To the beach! When we arrived, mum said ‘oh no’!!! What? We don’t go on the beach for the morning run? I will pull a bit on the leash. I want to go and have a look! Euh… she did not understand… I firmly pulled on the leash: to the beach, mum, I want to see this! 🙂

Finally she said that we could try… Hahaha! YES! 🙂
My dogness! What is this? I run around in it! Mum, look, I play with the sand. It gets on my paws all by itself! Even when I do not move! I have sandboots now! Look! 😉

We did not stay long. 😦 Only ten minutes. I ordered mum to film a bit and to fototoot too. At first she did not want too. Sand could harm te red blinking thing, but finally she did, a bit, at least! 🙂

And mum did not want to return at noon, not at all! 😦 I was pulling, but it did not work for a second time… she only got a bit angry and said that this queen of terriers is more a queen of stormwind! 😉 Did not sound too friendly though… 😉

 

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! 

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

 

 

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!!!!

 

 

New adventures for… daddy’s girl! :-)

After lunch at the restaurant (I got a bully stick!!), dad said: let’s go in town. Off we went to the tunnel for pedestrians. Normally we take the elevator, but since a few weeks we know big dogs are allowed on the escalator. Am I a big dog? Yes, I’m even a big airedale! A big airedale lady.
With dad we always go on new adventures. That’s why I’m not only a mummy’s girl, I’m a daddy’s girl too… if you did not know it, you know it now!

Adventure of today? We go down to the tunnel by the escalator! Wow, this is a big one, a long one too! Not one, but two of those to get 31 meters down! My dogness! And it is a wooden one, this escalator. Like it. Nice adventure, dad! Mum was filming with the red thing. You’ll see, I even had time and the guts to do “kiekeboe”= peekaboo with mum! 😉
First 31 meters down, then 31 meters up! Yeey! 🙂

We arrive at the right bank, in the middle of the old town. First we saw a jumble sale. Pics will show you it was interesting, my dogness! Wanted to take some of those things home… no, adventure was not that big! 😦

Strolling around in town, lots of works going on. 😦 The good news: ice cream! ❤
And there was also the man with the “literaire snackbar”. A snackbar with poems on food, about snacks! Man was kind: mum could choose a poem and he was declaiming it to her! See the video!

Back home with the metro… that’s old news… 🙂

PS Mum and dad were very proud about me on the escalator. I really am a lady with a big L, so I’m a… Lady! 😉 Oh yes, and there is one nice picture of the three of us: can you find it?

 

 

Forgotten pictures… not forgotten anymore! hahaha!

Well, as you know from the tv-typing-machine, there is somethng with this day and my mum! She is busy. But she said I can keep myself busy – I’m a busy lady! – showing the pictures of my new friends of last weekend! Since I’m talking about that all week, she said: go on! 😉

Well, here they are! But as always: we moved too much and then the red thing is not too kind to make very good pics! Anyway, you can see them! 🙂
