Wotan?

So Gail's just back from her cycling holiday and she's gushing about this beautiful wire-haired fox terrier called Wotan whom she met when enjoying an end of tour bière with her friends in a café opposite the cathedral in Metz.

I'm thinking if she's that keen on seeing a beautiful wire-haired fox terrier she could have just stayed home and not banished me to 'camp'.

And what kind of a name is 'Wotan' anyway?

Friends, I have been missing you. Normal service will resume shortly.

  3. Bertie,
    Your Gail sounds more and more like some sort of fickle huzzy every day. Imagine going off on a tour with some other WFT and then flaunting it in your face while you were stuck in camp with who knows what sorts of riff raff. Do I need to talk to her?

  4. My Mom says Wotan is the German name for the Norse God Odin. No details, thats it.

    So how was camp, Bertie? Did you have any fun there?

    I wouldn't worry about your Mom visiting with other dogs. Mine does that all the time but she always comes home to me.

    Cheers,
    Stella

  7. You are soooooo right. She has the most handsome WFT right there. But maybe she needed to see that you are indeed the most handsome.

  10. Brilliant to have you back Bertie! Am sure Gail will forget Wotan now she's home.

  11. Bertie, I think it is horrid that you are being treated that way. I am thinking, however that you need to use this to your advantage. I suggest a few days of sad eyes, whimpers and turning your back to her might indeed get you a nice amount of treats, hugs and on and on. You have beautiful eyes, please use them and let me know how it works. I am glad you are back.

  13. Hey Bertie!
    Wow, I think that's horrible! Definitely give her the silent treatment for awhile. Her guilt should win you some extra treats and scritches!

  15. Bertie - Watch out. Gail will be changing your name to Siegfried before you know it .

  16. We're shocked that Gail would be so insensitive as to reveal this shameful indiscretion to you in such glowing terms. Did she show any signs of remorse? Did she promise never to dally again?

    On the one paw, we guess it's better that she did fess up; on the other, she didn't have to tell you that Wotan was beautiful. Anyway, he's a guy, so perhaps handsome would have been a better choice of words...

    Wirey love,

    Jake and Just Harry

  18. Welcome back from camp, Bertie!
    Thanks for all the healing thoughts you sent my way -- they worked!

    I hope Gail will give us plenty of info about her cycling trip!

    Keep on wagging,

  20. Welcome home, Bertie! We know it will take you a bit of time to check out the premises and patrol your park to be sure nothing is out of order. We're sure Gail was just petting that Wotan because she missed you so dreadfully and she was racked with guilt at having such a fun trip while you were confined in durance vile. Be generous and let her make it up to you in many, many ways.

  21. Oh Bertie, I hear you - I'm often subject to 'Oh, Groucho, you would not BELIEVE the wonderful Westie we met blah blah blah'. Really? I thought they met a wonderful Westie every day - ie me. Geez, what is it with the humans. Hope you had a good time at camp.

    Woof.

  22. I was just wondering how one pronounces 'Wotan'?

    * Woe-tan?
    * Wot-an?
    * Here boy?

    Glad you are back and glad you enjoyed yourself.
