Brie vs. Storm

Although Brie is getting more and more confident, today's storm was too much to handle for such a little poodle. She did her best, barking at all the noises and trying to scare it off, but after a while she got bored and wanted to play instead. Storm 1, Brie 0.

When the rain stopped

I finally managed to drag this lazy poodle off the couch and off for a walk, even though she was sleeping. We met a Jack Russel who was strolling the park, I think he was taking himself for a walk. Brie was impressed by his independence. Brie I hope it doesn't give you mischievous ideas.

3rd time unlucky

Poor poor Brie, her attempt at some quiet sunbathing has failed miserable for the third day in a row. Her favorite spot was soaked, so she just had to make do with next best thing - on the bed. She still gets sunlight and the view, but maybe a little too much for her liking. Brie, do you need sunglasses, you are squinting so much you look like you have your eyes closed.
On the other hand, I have a little new finding about Brie. In past I read that if you yawn, your dog copies, and it is one way to calm the dog down. And it works sometimes, she doesn't calm down, but she definitely copies. So I was wondering that if I wiggle my nose, just like in "Bewitched", she might mimic me. Despite how poor my nose wiggling is, Brie still copies. It's rather fascinating I thought. I'm sure my biased observation isn't very scientific but give it a try!

Poodle in the Wind

To make up for yesterday's lack of sunbathing, Brie went outside this morning to inhale the fresh morning air. Unfortuately, at the same time a huge gust of wind came blowing through the garden which nearly knocked her over. Brie has decided that she doesn't like the wind very much, so she came inside to wait until it was safe outside, but then it started raining. Poor Brie.

Grim and rainy

Brie loves her routine, and when she wakes up in the morning she likes to do a bit of pre-breakfast sunbathing out on the deck, and then some post-breakfast sunbathing. She gazes out to her garden and absorbs the morning sunshine. However, today was one of those typically grim and wet winter days, and her morning routine was canceled. She isn't a happy poodle today.
