Hot

Hot by Fantasia Dog It’s too hot. It’s too hot to go for walks. It’s so hot I don’t even want to go. It’s so hot the air conditioner can’t cool the house down. It’s so hot I don’t want to sleep on the bed snuggled with the human. I lie on the floor and…… Continue reading Hot

Strange Cat

Strange Cat by Fantasia Dog Strange things have been happening in our house. It started with Mr Bumpy. He’s been sick a lot lately, but he was acting very strangely the other day. He couldn’t stand up, and tried leaning on walls. The human and the upstairs human took him to the emergency vet. When…… Continue reading Strange Cat

Bed

Bed by Fantasia Dog The human sets an alarm on her phone for when she plans to wake up. Then she sleeps through it. Sometimes she plans to go somewhere in the morning, and misses out because she doesn’t get up in time. You might not know this about me, but I’m a watch dog.…… Continue reading Bed

Tired Dog

Tired Dog by Fantasia Dog I has the best week last week! My favourite human came to visit, for a whole week. My human and the upstairs human took her away most days. They said something about school, and then about holidays, and then about the zoo. What I was most interested in was the…… Continue reading Tired Dog

Dressing Up

Dressing Up by Fantasia Dog When my favourite human was very little, I sometimes played dress-ups and tea parties with her. So when my human made clothes for my favourite small human she’d make matching clothes for the small human’s doll and a matching scarf for me. A couple of years ago, my human stopped…… Continue reading Dressing Up

Crocodile to the Rescue

Crocodile to the Rescue by Fantasia Dog I have a bit of a problem. I can’t manage my behaviour when I’m over excited. When a human I like visits, or when my own humans come home after being out, I get really excited. My tail flails wildly, in fact my whole back end flails with…… Continue reading Crocodile to the Rescue

Sneaky Dog

Sneaky Dog by Fantasia Dog My catty sister Princess is famous for being a sneakypaws, but I can be sneaky too. I played the absolute best trick on the human the other day. The human has a favourite chair. Some friends of ours got it for her. It has buttons to push to lean it…… Continue reading Sneaky Dog

The Great Toffee Heist

The Great Toffee Heist by Fantasia Dog The human made toffee this week. She said it would be extra yummy because she put a tiny bit of cinnamon in it. When she finished making it she ate a piece and told me how very good it was. She did not give me a piece. It’s…… Continue reading The Great Toffee Heist

Abandoned

Abandoned by Fantasia Dog I’m an abandoned dog. At least I was abandoned. I’m not now, but I was. I knew it was going to happen. If you look at the photo, you can see me wearing my worried expression. I was worried, because the human was putting on some of her “going out without…… Continue reading Abandoned

Walking

Walking by Fantasia Dog I love my walk. I love that people sometimes ask to pat me. (Yesterday, I persuaded three people to pat me. That’s equal to my personal best effort.) I love the interesting things I see. I don’t love the dogs who bark mean things at me from behind their fences, but…… Continue reading Walking
