Well, I haven’t blogged in a while, mostly because the dark
nights are here and I've been ‘packed in’ keeping warm on the sofa. So I woke
today to see mum decorating the house for the human festival of Christmas. She’s
decorated my basket and added a large red sock to the front, so I presume there is something
nice going to be left in there as the big day comes around.
Apart from the giving and receiving of gifts during Christmas
the humans have a strange ritual of bringing in an en-suite bathroom and placing
it in the corner of the living room. A great prospect I would think since it is
rather cold to go outside for a wee especially on these dark nights. As an
added luxury they even illuminate
it so you can aim better. However much to my disappointment the ‘Christmas’ tree is not to be used for toileting purposes, so it’s out into the cold for me.

Dogs don’t really celebrate Christmas although no puppy at
heart would ever turn down a squeaky toy, bone or bag of treats but to us
canines this time of year is known as the winter food festival. In the doggy
calendar this food festival is a period of two weeks when humans and canines
alike stuff themselves like bears with good nutritious meaty food. To dogs this
is the antidote to the long fruit and salad festival that takes place between
the months of May and September when the long days and warm weather mean that humans
eat more salads and fruit and canine tip bits are in short supply. So with only
a few days to go until the feasting begins, I can’t wait to eat and snooze, eat
and snooze, eat and sleep. Merry Christmas, and happy feasting everyone.
