The Bond Head Luxury Pet Hotel

Chase, here, Lovely Buddies, Well, actually, I had to whisper this post into Belinda's ear, and she is at the screen right now, typing this for me. You'll understand why in a minute. Today started out like any other day at the Bond Head Luxury Pet Hotel. Belinda and I went for a walk in the back yard before she had to leave for church. Belinda spotted a fox, but I didn't see him this time. Instead, she mentioned the word, "Treat," and we both headed inside at a fast trot, leaving the bunnies of Bond Head to wily Mr. Fox. After she came back from church, she called my bluff with the halter and leash again, and as I lay on the rug, she gave a soft tug, opened the door, and I was up and out in a jiffy! Even humans need a tug sometimes to get off the couch and go for a walk! We had just got back when Belinda saw a message on FB. It was from Mom and Dad, Peter and Beth. Oh, my goodness, they were back!!! And they were coming to pick me up!! Belinda packed my...

Hello to All My Friends, Today's story is a short one because it's time for beddy-byes already and all this partying is tiring me out! Today Belinda cracked the code! She realized that all along I was bluffing about my halter and leash. She needed to have a proper walk, even though it was pouring with rain, so she ignored my bluff, put on the equipment, opened the door and said, "Let's go." And I went. Just like that! Oh, well, it was fun while it lasted, having her run around the lawn with me for exercise. I have a feeling that she'll still do that too. 👅 We both got wet on our walk. I left my mark all over, and feel like I own the village right now! When we got home my coat was so drenched that Belinda though she could mop the floor with me, but instead, she dried me off with a towel, and later she brushed my coat because I couldn't do a thing with it. She had to go out to a Burston Boys Birthday Brunch after the walk, then she came back for ...

Hello, My Dear Friends! Chase here again! Today I was officially deputized by Belinda. Here I am standing at the ready to be of assistance the moment anything drops to the floor. Belinda was making some carrot quiches, Bavarian Apple Torte, Chicken Pot-Pies, Macaroni Cheese, and Meatloaf. Can you guess what my favourite things to drop to the floor were? Yes! You guessed right--chicken and cheese! That's probably because they make good alliteration with my name--Chase the Cheese and Chicken fan! When you're working as hard as I worked beside Belinda today, you have to have a break or two. Here I am having a really good, all-out break! Belinda thought it looked so comfy, but she wouldn't come down and try it!  Instead of going for walkies around the village, Belinda took me around the back yard several times, and then she kneeled down and weeded one of the flower beds, while I kept her company.   I see that Belinda caught me red-pawed with her monkey toys. She sa...

Hello, Dear Friends, Chase, here with my Thursday Doggie Diary. When Belinda’s Friend, Susan, visited two days ago, she admired my cuteness and asked Belinda, “So is Chase your favourite so far?” Belinda smiled and said, “No, I can’t have a favourite--they are all such unique personalities, and I love them all.” She was thinking about Oscar, the little white dog who had some health needs and was quite an old “little boy.” He had dental and breath issues and bad kidneys, but he still had lots of love to give. Then there was the famous FIFA, an extraordinary dog, who stole Belinda’s heart and even Paul’s, plus was admired by several neighbours. And of course, Magic and Spero, the dynamic pair of handsome family dogs, an Aussie and a Golden Retriever. But deep down, I could tell that there was a favourite, a dog who went on many Belinda walks because he used to live in the downstairs apartment. He was Molson the Golden Retriever. I’ve seen his photo on her bookshelf, a...
