Good day pack,

Skye dog here, international dog of mystery (Romania, UK, and now my home in Espana). I have been recounting my time since I acquired my new life first in Ferring and finally home is here in wonderful Arboleas. Life is never dull and after a strict training regime I have kept my male and female staff under a paw of iron, or most times. Male staff and I sit at our little table in the morning he drinks his coffee and I digest my breakfast cooked by one of my staff. It was in the height of summer and the time for long siestas from lunch time on.

I have invited the lovely Tricia, Lady Mayoress First Avenue Bexhill on Sea to stay and we have Noel (who bakes wonderful scones), and Anita here at the moment. Male staff stirs from his chair and says, Skye, look at that damp patch in front of the garage! We go over I sniff it and say ‘water`. We dig down and there is a pipe with a tiny fountain. Better get an expert says I. No says male staff I can fix that. At this I roll my eyes to the heavens and retreat to my summer comfort spot which is under a bush where I can study what goes on in my estate.

Off goes male staff to Longo`s and returns in triumph with a plastic connector. He turns the mains water off and sets to with hacksaw and much muttering and perspiration, cuts the pipe and puts the connector in place, it leaks, I place a paw over my eyes in despair. Water off and staff replaces the connector. Bingo he says thats fixed it!

Good day pack,

I hope you are all enjoying this lovely weather. A little hot for a Romanian rescue dog as I cannot take my overcoat off, thankfully I have staff to do my bidding and the floors are lovely and cool to curl up on. The only downside to this is that I have to breakfast early to take male staff out for our morning walk before it is too hot for my paws and staff's poor old body; I check how much he puffs these days.

Leading on from my last Blog when I managed to get our water leaks repaired with the help of Andy Venn and the lovely Tricia, Mayoress of Bexhill on Sea arriving for a stay with me. Now I thought a gentle, peaceful few weeks and sophisticated conversation, a far cry from my daily conversations with staff members. Oh, how I tempted fate.

The Mayoress and female staff were picking olives and I was supervising, when suddenly from the corner of ALL of our eyes we saw this, well, brown flash... I went to investigate and The Mayoress said “did you see that?” Female staff went to have a look and what she found was a big dog under the outside couch. Female staff went to get some of MY treats to entice the dog out, not sure where Male staff was at this time, I think he went out shopping, as he was nowhere to be seen. Well, I watched with a bit of anger as Female staff threw MY treats to this big dog. Eventually it came out and let Female staff pat its head, oh my, it was HUGE, but still only a puppy.   Anyway, Female staff gave it some of MY biscuits and it woofed them down, must have been very hungry, mind you it was a little thin.
