Relaxing in the sun...

We haven't done very much the last week. It is very cold at night, but nice temperatures during the day and fine to just relax or stroll around a bit in the garden...

Here are Paloma & Knodden



and here are Hobby, me (Zara), Guri & Yess...

We think we are the prettiest dogs in the world!

Bye, bye....

Yess & Guri...

I have got new friends! Their names are Yess & Guri and they are afghans and come from Norway. They are only puppies at 3 months age, so they are very cute! They don't have lots of coat like Hobby and Paloma, and are much smaller and fun to play with!



We play a lot, and when we get tired we take a nap in the sofa.



From the left you can see Yess and Guri looking around and finally me sleeping deeply, tired from all the playing.



Here you have me and Yess... sometimes they need some special attention and comforting, and I give them that. I guess they miss their mom and friends in Norway, so I try to be nice with them!

Last weekend...

Last week we all had to take a bath, nobody of us likes it. First mom gave Hobby and Paloma a bath Wednesday. Then again Friday, and we suspected that something special should happen in the weekend. Normally it takes several hours from the afghans goes into the bathroom until they both are brushed and dry, and usually they are allowed to dry "naturally" by the sun and wind when she brushes them. But now mom used the blowdryer, so we thought is must be a show coming up. After being finished with the afghans she gave us 3 salukis a bath each, it took about 15 minutes, all together! As it was lots of sun and nice outside we could take a nap in the sun and get dry at the same time. Not that is takes much time with me and daddy (Sterling) as we don't have much coat! At the photos you can see what wet afghans look like, not very pretty! ha ha!

Saturday morning we went up early and were all (except the shelties) taken into the car..., YES..., to a dog show! We knew it! It was not very far away and we met lots of other salukis and afghans there as it was a special show for only our two breeds! It was fun!

Long time...

It is a long time since I told you someting here. The "smallies" (= the shelties) and I had an argue, they meant I didn't tell enough about them here. So now they have started there own blog, you can find it here:

We have been for lots of long walks , the temperatures are much better now, it is not so hot. But I like to play and run in the water if there is water around, and sometimes it is, and mud... he he

Mum does NOT like it when I've been into it, it stinks she says, I think it's like perfume! The bad thing is that I must have a bath when coming home, I don't like that!

Visitors...

This has been the best weekend for a long long time! We have had visitors since Friday, first Merethe and Lasse came, you know they who have my best friend Warda The Sloughi and Halal The Saluki!? This time they had little one too, her name is Ada and she is an Azawkah, she is very small and only 3 month old, or less... Then some old friends of mum came all the way from Norway, they had a house that was a car, or a car that was a home, it was a bit weird! Their names are Nils and Guri and they had 2 dogs; Jamila a Saluki and Nashmi that was an Azawakh too. I have never seen one before in my life and now there were two ones here the same weekend! Nils and Guri were on their way to a dogs show in Gibraltar.

We went for a walk Saturday morning:




Then after breakfast we went into our little town Castalla, and everybody stopped to watch us! Old men pointed and discussed which of us could be the best hunter and what kind of "galgos" we were...





Before we went home all the folks wanted a small rest at the bar in the park. The owner was very nice and gave us a big table in the shade. And he asked if he could hold me and Knodden and be taken a picture of. You can see us here! We wil go there and give him the photo one day this week, I think he will like it a lot!

Bye for now....

Babies...

You know what?

In Norway, where my folks comes from, and Teefah (my real mother) were born and Hobby and Paloma lived for many years before the moved here..., there, in Norway, is a litter of Afghan-babies!

It was supposed, two times, that Paloma should have had babies earlier this year, but she never got any. So I have never seen so small babies, ...since I was that small myself of course. But today I saw lots of picturers of small small afghans, they are really cute! I wish we had lots of those here so I could play with them! I show you some of the pictures here so you can see for yourself, and there are more pictures of them here: www.kennelcaravan.com

Afghans and agility!

Ha ha! I look forward to see Hobby & Paloma's faces when they read this post!

You know we have some very good friends that live a bit south along the coast from us, near Almería?! My best friend Warda lives in that familiy... I hope she comes to visit soon!

Today Warda's mum Merethe emailed me some very exciting photos! You can see them below...





PS. Hobby and Blondie, it's time to get your bodies in shape...
