The gift that keeps on giving

Lately I have been worrying about what would happen if, like some other bloggers, I should ever run out of subject matter for my blog.

Gail, I regret to say, has not been taking my concerns seriously. "Will the Daily Express ever be short of stories about Princess Diana? Will conspiracy theorists ever give up on the assassination of JFK?"

Of course, my owner and I are not always of one mind when it comes to deciding which topics readers will want me to cover in my posts.

Gail says I really must tell you about what she calls "the unfortunate incident on the 'A' frame", which took place at the end of the last week's DDAC* training session in Drumforskie barn.

I can't imagine that any of you would be interested but, for the sake of domestic harmony, I have agreed to post Gail's rather poor quality cartoon of what occurred.

  1. Bertie, there is an old saying "a picture tells a thousand words" and it seems the words that Gail left out in her last post are clearly drawn in the cartoon of you..

    Woofs,
    Riley

    PS My human instantly thought of Tin Tin cartoons when she saw Gail's drawing. Bertie, if Gail keeps drawing perhaps one day you there could be a book about you!

    1. Gail says: In fact Bertie wasn't even supposed to be on the 'A' frame at that point. My theory is that he ran up there to find a 'private' place to poo...

  8. WAY to... "GO" Bertie. You did it YOUR WAY.
    So why was Gail making a STINK about it?
    We think you just elevated your Poops to a NEW Level.
    Pawhaps it was already there and your "A" was Framed fur the job. Just sayin.

  9. I bet all the other dogs were running up there to try that after you bertie! Glad you showed the agility folk what you think of that A frame thing!
    Pippa :)
    P.S. Eve seems to think dogs like pooping on hills because that's where I drop my smellies. Maybe it's true!

  12. I recall seeing a high class dog like yourself, taking a dump in front of a judge at a Big Dog Show. Every one was embarrassed except the dog.

  16. Too funny, Bertie. I kind of agree with you on heights! What a great cartoon, more please :-)

  17. OMD, Bertie, did you get extra credit?! Just think of all the EXTRA agility it takes to manuever and balance so pawfectly AND leave poops behind at the same time!

  18. Brilliant cartoon!!!

    Thanks for your Border Collie advice! Oz's parents want him to join an agility club over in Tuscany. They are going to have their hands full with him!
