Have been busy so recycling an image from a couple of weeks ago for #TerrierTuesday – demonstrates the difficulties of terrier curiosity 😆. When Alfie's around I can't vacuum, mow the lawn or (clearly) water the garden. Has to be locked away and then he makes an unholy racket. Good job he's cute...
Alfie has had a quiet #TerrierTuesday mostly snoozing in a cool spot... 💤💤💤
Alfie the hosepipe ban enforcer (we don’t actually have a hosepipe ban) #dogsofbluesky #gardening
Alfie the Patterdale cross terrier and his favourite toy. He was 14 on Gotcha day when I started fostering him all by chance - too small and old for the rescue kennels really. He's now 15, loves his home comforts and acts like a puppy. #terriertuesday #dogsofbluesky
I loved having a dog friendly cat! ❤️ (and a cat friendly dog). #petmemorial #dogsofbluesky #catsofbluesky
Alfie catching the rays last week against all advice. Me telling him to get in NOW 😆. #TerrierTuesday #dogsofbluesky #heatwave
Dogs are currently sitting in the direct airflow of THREE fans! (wishing they were due back at the groomers) 🔥🔥🔥 #heatwave
Apparently dogs have the ability to find a cool comfortable spot to rest in. 15 year old Alfie has plenty of those but just found him outside in full sun... Perhaps I should tell him. (He's in now 😆)
Sid who reached the great age of 24. He was a very feisty little guy and the terror of the neighbourhood. #caturday #catmemorial #catsofbluesky
Nini, such a sweet girl. Lost her a few years ago. #catmemorial #catsofbluesky #caturday
Only just heard about #ThickTrunkTuesday Here's one with a suspended bat 😵💫
Meg aged one at Christmas some years ago – after this she resisted the wearing of headgear... #dogmemorial #dogsofbluesky
Remembering Meg in her favourite winter place. #dogmemorial #dogsofbluesky
Alfie aged 14 and three quarters. Now allowed to rule the roost (with conditions).
Following on behalf of Alfie, the 14 year old terrier (terror?) mix. Deceptively cute.
Mori looking suitably serious during yesterday's two minute silence. Actually, this is her usual face.
Little 14 year old Alfie rocking his new heavy duty harness. Walks perfectly on a lead but easier to get him out of trouble with it on 😀. Just in case... #oldenoughtoknowbetter #dogsofbluesky #terriers
It's dreadful when a cat disappears but must be so good when they return. I adopted Letty from NCAR a few years ago and after 5 years she went out and never returned 😢 Tried everything to find her. She was the sweetest girl and normally so reliable. 2 dogs now but still miss having cats.
The newbie (little Alfie) with long suffering Mori who is not at all keen on Alfie's fondness for squeaky toys. 😆
My small area of natural biodiversity (otherwise know as my garden) might be a nightmare for humans but for Alfie the elderly rescue dog it's a fascinating place ripe for exploration 😍
Fostering a 14 year old Patterdale. He's checked out the premises and seems satisfied 😆 Certainly likes the bed. This was not planned! At all! But he's too old for kennels and deserves his home comforts. My other dog Mori is quite taken with him and I've always had a thing for elderly grey dogs 😍
