I have been having a hard time of it with this thing that Mom says is called my Season!  I did not know what was happening to me and I needed lots of hugs and love off everyone!  I finally feel more like myself and have been playing again!  I really hope that does not happen again!

Mom has her sewing room back and has said I can have a new bed in there, so when she is sewing I can be with her.  She does not know what sort to get though.  I have my big basket next to Mom’s desk and a bit smaller basket in Mom and Dad’s room, so Mom thought of getting me something different for her sewing room. 

So far this is the one she likes the most.  I don’t mind so long as it is comfy and I can snuggle in it.  Mom says one benefit of this one is that she can wash all of it!!  I don’t know what she means.

It has been very warm over the last week or so and I have been outside soaking up the sun although Mom does keep an eye on me in case I am digging which Dad does not like!!  I am going for a Spa day next week to cut my furs and also make me feel better after this horrible season thing!

It has been cooler over the last few days which has been nice but we are supposed to be back to warm sunshine next.  I hope you are having a wonderful woofy week.

I have not done one of my blogs for a while because, well I have just been so busy!  My day starts with Daddy letting me out into my garden and then having my breakfast.  I then race back upstairs to find Mom and show her the toy I have brought up with me!

Then, depending upon what day it is, we have different rountines.  Mom spends quite a bit of time at her desk and I have my basket next to her desk which means I can keep an eye on her!

I have a lunchtime biscuit when Mom has lunch and then we spend the afternoon at work.  One day is spent doing house jobs and I walk round with Mom supervising and another day she is out all day at Eldest’s garage so I have a quiet day in my crate snoozing.  Mom always leaves the radio on for me and I am at the moment listening to Radio 3 here in the UK which is the Classical station. 

I am having a hard time at the moment keeping the blooming cats out of my garden!  There is one black and white cat who sits on the top step and no matter how much I bark will not move.  It does go eventually if Mom goes to open the door.  Our neighbour also has two new kittens, a black one and a white one with splodges on it.  They will not leave the garden so Daddy had to go outside last night and got the hose pipe.  It eventually went!!!  They are NOT allowed in my garden at all!

I hurt my leg the other day trying to keep the cats out and it hurt but Mom massaged it and I was able to walk on it by lunch.  I did, however, get a bit of a telling off after that!!!  But I do have to defend my garden after all!

We have been having some sunshine over the last few days and the door has been open for me to run in and out as I please, but Mom is keeping an eye on me from her desk!  So far I have not been naughty digging up her plants!!!!

I hope you are having a lovely woofy week.  Coco xx

I have had a busy few days helping Mom and organising those Boys of mine!  I should have done my Corner yesterday but I spent the day curled up in my basket as it was cold and very wet here in Derbyshire. 

This is where I spent yesterday as it was cold and wet outside!

Mom says I have been too distructive with my soft toys recently so my next ones will be the tough chew ones.  I have lots of string ropes which I love chewing, you can see one of the cotton strings on my nose!

Mom I am ready for playtime.  Can you throw my rope toy please?

Can you get this piece of string off my nose please?

I am ready for the rope throw!  This string is now tickling my nose!!!!!I have had fun today and I think I now smell dinner cooking!

I will be back next week for another Coco’s Corner.  Mom is still trying to get me a Spa Day appointment, my ladies are very busy at the moment!   

Woolly Woofs, Coco xx

Happy Thursday Everyone! I thought I would do a fun #Throwback Thursday today.

Above our Darling Treacle aged One Year!

Above our Darling Coco aged One Year!

Coco has got such a different personality to Treacle which has made it easier in some ways getting over Treacle’s passing.  She is such a little character and so, so different to all our other Airedales too.  They have all had their own personalities of course but Coco really is in a league of her own!!!!

Also found out it is National Puppy Day today!  Always a bit late with these things.  Anyway here is Madam when she was little and of course Darling Treacle.

I have been working all day today and so will be doing home jobs tomorrow.  I have plans for the weekend, some spring cleaning, some sewing hopefully, some baking, who knows.  I will take each day as I find it!!  Tomorrow is Book Club Friday and I can say I am really enjoying my current read.

Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx

Mom said it was going to be cold but she forgot to mention that we might get some snow, even if it is not very deep!

What on earth is this white stuff?

Oh I can eat it!

Yeah and I can Play in it!

I had great fun in my real first snow!!!!

Mom has to go out so she is not looking forward to navigating the roads!!!  I will be tucked up in my quilt snoozing!!!

I hope you have a lovely Woofy Day.

Here are the promised pictures of Miss Coco’s Birthday!  Sorry it’s late but this week has been really busy again!!!!

A special Doggy Birthday Cake for her, she really likes it!

Her Presents!

A new Cuddly toy for her, which she loves.

Showing off her new Collar for Spring.

Playing with Daddy with her new toy.

Her One Year Old Portrait.

Of course she loves all her other toys too!!!

She is looking quite woolly at the moment but we are having another very cold snap at the moment so don’t want her cut just yet!!!  I am hoping for some nice Spring sunshine soon and then she can have a day at The Spa.

Today is International Women’s Day and I thought I would celebrate all my female friends, especially as I am surrounded by Men!!!  I hope they have a fantastic day:

Sue (& Molly), Susan (& Tara), Jayne, Anne, Christine, Carol, Pat, Tricia, Val, Elaine, Judy, Hannah, Suzie (& Coco).

Today I should have been at Eldest’s garage but he has been busy out and about with DH, so I am at home working.  Tomorrow is home jobs and Friday grocery shopping.  DH is out all weekend again at another swimming event so I am hoping to get some jobs done and some quilting.  Last weekend I didn’t get chance as I was helping Youngest with his new job in the swimming club sorting out the small pool swimmers!  It took a while!! 

I hope you lovely lot are having a good week, it will soon be the weekend! 

Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx

Well that first year has flown by!  Coco is One year old today!  I thought you would like to see that year in pictures.

They don’t stay little for very long do they?

They never replace our previous dogs and they all have their own wonderful personalities and we miss our darling Treacle, but am so glad we got Coco.  I think as I work from home all day every day I noticed it the most when Treacle passed and there was no little presence in our home and next to my desk. 

Coco is definitely different to the three other Airedales we have had but saying that they have all been different from each other too, which is why they are our favourite breed. 

Happy 1st Birthday Coco, we love you to bits.

Happy 11th Birthday yesterday Molly, we love you to bits too!

I did not realise that Molly and Coco’s Birthdays were a day apart!  Molly had a great day with her wonderful Mom and had a Birthday Biscuit.  Coco has some gifts and a Birthday cake which I will show you tomorrow. 

Hugs & Love, Susie, DH, Eldest & Youngest xxxx
