Well Darlings, the weather here is frightful. I cannot abide by weather that makes me pant and froth at the mouth in the most uncomely of manners. So far, my birthday weekend has been rather uneventful. But I have been promised a swim tomorrow in Lake Erie if no thunderstorms are on the horizon.

I must say that I am rather touched by a litte montage my caregivers have created of me. I do think they are rather besotted with me.

A bientot mes enfants...

Almost 6 months

Darlings!

Can you believe it my Loves....I'm almost six months old!

Celebrations begin tomorrow and will last (I am led to believe) all weekend long!

I feel this is proper moment to begin my six month retrospective. My daddies have been keeping me so busy they have neglected to share my achievements with the world. Well, time to resolve that. Let's begin....

Check out this link first. Here I am at 7 weeks. My breeder (affectionately?) labelled me as the brat. Me, a brat? I do beg to differ.

Here is me at the tender age of 8.5 weeks having just learned to sit.

Here we are darlings, one small step for a precocious Toller princess. Frankly, I could descend the Eiffel Tower at that age. But I am keeping all of my innate tricks in store. I love the look of surprise and adulation when I show my caregivers how smart I am. I have a whole lifetime of tricks to show (and teach) them!

A 10 weeks old, I showed them I could do this....you'll notice that I do well despite the confusing clicker timing.

Hello Darlings!

My spirits continue to soar- or should I say 'sore'- despite this relentless teething.

I found a tooth yesterday and all I got from the tooth fairy was ...nothing!

I should put that on a t-shirt and wear it. Sadly, my caregivers refuse to 'humanize' me and there will be no puppy shoes, blinged-out collars, or quirky t-shirts with pithy four-pawed proverbs.

Sigh. I hope they don't expect me to retrieve nasty dead ducks filled with gunshot ! They're not even hunters but I fear I may find myself thrust into a chilly marsh before long.

Well, let's think positive.

Here is another one of my beloved photos. Here I am at 10 weeks. This was no pose. I simply looked up when asked and 'click' my inimitable cuteness was digitized.

Now it's yours to enjoy my darlings!

Ciao, besos, bises and kisses

Welcome to Me!

Welcome Darlings!

Welcome to a site all about me.

I'll have many fascinating and extraordinary things to share with you in the coming months and years.

But first things first.

I know you must be desperate for some photographic portraiture featuring moi. Below you'll find some of the myriad photographs taken by my caregivers Anthony and Joe. These date from March 2009 when I was just 9 weeks old. What a darling face, if I do say so myself :)

My posts will be rather laconic while I finish teething, but I will endeavour to post pictures and video diaries to keep your ardent appetites whetted.


Ciao, Besos, Bises and Kisses,
Ajay

A Toller Princess is born

Picture it, Darlings: 6 Toller newborns freshly sprouted from mother's womb as planned.

All appear healthy, mother grateful the long hours of labour have come to an end. But then, contractions begin again. Mother seems exhausted and confused.
