Archie brings the sunshine...

 & cuddles :)

a special day...

It was my lovely Amy's birthday today.
I took her for a walk, let Kathryn brush me until I was super soft, gave her cuddles & my people made loud noises for her, fed her special food & gave her things. I think she had a good day.

Happy Birthday Amy!

love & licks
Archie

you can't catch me!....until you do...

I'll just run circles around you for a while...

...oops, well I was tired of running anyways...

 

...but I bet you can't lick your own nose...

(Archie loves our new baby)

Dear people,

My people got a 'Fuji Instant Camera' the other week, not sure what it is but it makes them happy.
I think the pictures they took looked pretty but they wouldn't let me lick them, what's the point of something I can't lick?

I was confused the last couple of weeks, other people starting taking me to bed instead of Christopher. At first I was suspicious (my birthday is coming up) but it turned out there was nothing to worry about. 

A few days ago I went to the forest with my people, so much fun! We walked and ran and ate yummy things.

Yesterday I got a super sore ear, but my people looked after me and I'm fine now!

lots of licks, hugs and pats,
Archie

P.S. I've included some photos of me and my people, enjoy!

Positive Dog Training

By Pamela Dennison

I have finished reading this dog training book, which is full of usefulness and over the next few days I'll be drawing up a training routine so we can all start training the Archie.

So, no more misbehaving for him!

random cuteness...

just a little Archie-ness to welcome  the new look for the blog...

and some running, one of favourite puppy's favourite things

Archie has been many things, a gentleman, a bud, a spy, and this week he's a sheep...

Kathryn: So Archie What have you been up to in your 52 weeks project lately?
Archie: I was a bud and met a very nice Gardner

Then I pretended to be human


To see more of Amy's 52weeks project, go here.

Anyway, this week Pretty Pink Themed Weekend's theme was Nursery Rhyme and Amy did little bo peep with Archie as her sheep.


Here are the outtakes





Archie was very cuddly after photo taking.

Archie & Amy have ears....

The photo above is part of Amy's "52 weeks: Me and the pooch" project. Looks all calm & happy right?, well I thought I'd show you some out-takes, so you can see what we go through to get cute shots like this.

Trying to get the hat to fit right....

oops! not quite...

a treat to keep him happy....

a dose of the wigglies (I think he wanted to go chase something)...

a little help from Kathryn...

& just cos it's cute...

All the out-takes are in chronological order.....the shot Amy used is actually from near the end of the session.....he got more co-operative, not less :)
