Easter Prayer....

As many humans go to church this Easter I thought it very appropriate to add to my blog a prayer so many of my Greek canine friends will know:-

Around and around he goes!

Rather a lazy day for me today, apart from going out on the beach run and the Guv feeding "Scruff" and his mates (see my earlier posts), all I have done is watch the Guv working!

First the grass whipping stick came out, from which I keep well clear, then he rode around in ever decreasing circles on his grass cutting tractor.  I can tell you I was quite worried, he was going round and around in circles for ages and I was concerned as I have heard some of you humans say that if you go around and around in circles you can disappear up your own...........no I can't say it !

He was lousy.....

Well this morning was interesting. A normal start with a walk on the beach for me, then onto Kalamata for the Guv to try and get some bits for the "human kennel on wheels", and a stop for refreshments near the tennis club.

Then on to feed "Scruff" and his friends.  This time though the Guv also "deloused" Scruff and afterwards put some of my special anti louse medication on him.....and never even asked my permission!

It's not about me!

As the headline says this is not about me, but about a few of my fellow canines (one especially) that my people have been feeding and trying to keep alive!

The top photo was taken this morning when we went to feed them, the bottom photo some time back.  The location is about 20 minutes drive from my house so we can't get there every day and despite trying the Guv can not get anyone to take it in.  That even goes for the dog rescue centres, as they are so full.

Now I want to ask all my friends in Greece WHO CAN HELP, as my people and me will be going away for several months, "Scruff" (as I call  him) has managed to "hang on to life" but definitely will not survive this summer without help....

Scruff is a friendly dog, in such need

If you can help e-mail or phone me......

Cloudy day

Cloudy morning for today's beach run-a-round, I heard the Guv say he thinks its due to all the red sand dust in the air from Africa on its way to the U.K. !

Not to worry though I got my morning outing as  normal and now its time for a lazy weekend with the Misses going to watch a load of horses jumping over fences later today on T.V., and the Guv planning to watch the F1 qualifiers.

Me, well I'll just lie around and pester them every now and again.

They want to keep dogs off the beach !

I think this morning the Guv was just a bit annoyed whilst we walked on the beach.  He spent a lot of time winding up masses of fishing line that had been thrown around the beach by careless fishermen. These humans have no thought for the turtles that nest on that beach, the birds that might get tangled up in the wire or indeed MY GOVERNOR, who also got his feet tangled!

You see the difference in the two pictures above ?  The first is the mess that we encountered this morning after the fishermen, the second is the mess I left!

Anything else I leave the Guv sorts out!

The perfect day !

What a perfect day, another exciting walk on the beach 
with the Guv and the Misses

Poopedmobile......

Once again there has not been much to tell you about recently, apart from the daily morning beach walks.  Mind you the other morning was quite interesting as the Guv decided the "poppymobile" needed a run on the beach as well, but I think it went a bit too far and got one of its "legs" stuck in the sand!  Don't think the Guv was all that happy and I think I got the message wrong when he rolled on his back under the "poppymobile" to clear the sand. I thought he wanted me to give him a belly rub, like he does me when I roll on my back!  

Huh....got told off !

So talking about the "poppymobile" I thought this mornings photo in the fields near the beach very apt, showing the wild poppies in bloom.

Beaches & birds.....

Another nice sunny day for my morning walk, this morning I got taken to Petalidi and then to Koroni.  It was my people's plan to have breakfast in Koroni but when we got there all the town had a power cut, that put pay to their plans!

The Guv normally lets me chase the birds off the beach when I have my run-a-bout, its great fun but this morning I thought I'd leave this one sunbathing as I might had got a little wet getting it!

Mind you I nearly got this one in the garden when we got home and got told off! Sometimes my people are no fun !!

.....and a few more

Just a few more photos my people took the other day.  

The top photo is of a village called "Elliniko"

Not very good photographs these, there's something 

missing from them

ME !
