Some Interesting Things You Might Want to Know

This is another dog called Buster. Can you believe it?

Sometimes I look out of the window to see if anyone I know is out there.

But a lot of people have been in my house lately.

This is Claudia.

This is Henry. 

When we went to the park Claudia  took some pictures.

This is me when I have been in the pool. I am licking Mum's hand.

This is Gomez. You can probably tell that because he has been in the blog lots of times before.

This photo was taken on Saturday. It is not fall yet even though it looks like it.

It is more peaceful round here now but a bit dull.
In honor of the WORLD CUP I have got another video of me playing soccer 

I hope you are having fun too.

Art, Rat, Water

My sister has come to stay and it is very hot so

 I have not been in the mood to write very much lately.

This is my sister and Gomez but he is looking the other way.

I do not often make comments about fashion because

 I am not a very fashionable sort of guy.

Few of us dress up to go to the dog park. But sometimes girls wear stuff that you notice.

This is a hair bow.

This is me letting Charlotte Maude drink out of the paddling pool.

She is very important because she has two names.

This is me looking golden in the morning light.

This is Harlan lying in the water and blocking up the drain.

He is one of the biggest dogs I know.

I hope this does not scare you. It is not really a rat, but it is a rubber pretend rat.

I saw it when we were on our way to the park.

You will like this picture I did. It is of a llama being taken for walk by a creature.

I did it all myself on the window with my nose. Dad had cleaned the window

so I had space to do it. Then I added stuff to it and it is now messed up.

Dogs Whose Name Begin with B

This is us at the park today. This is Bruno. 

He is not going to let any one have his blue ball.

 This is Bella. She is now grown up and lovely like Darcy.

This is the Bigster.

Bentley with the spotty tongue could have been in it

 but he was bad and had to go home early.

This is me with my leg growing out of my chin.

Sometimes photos are weird.

I will do another letter another day.

Some Funny Things

This is my pink rabbit. It was meant to be indestructable. Haha!

This is Peekaboo. She is very small.

 I thought you might want to see Bentley's tongue. It is very special.

When he is hot it hangs out a lot.

There was a graduation around here. Someone tied balloons on the fence.

If you look very carefully you can see Knutty in the balloon!

This photo was taken on the telephone.

I do not have a blue mouth usually.

I hope you are well.

Soccer and Me and Other Stuff

Lots of us like the pool.

We are water dogs.

You can see a picture of me playing soccer in the water here !

This is because it is the World Cup.

This looks like a good bookshop.

This is Fatty doing her Houdini imitation. I still do not like her.

This is Jasper who I do like. I let him bite my stick.

This is a dog Mum met on her bike ride. It is not me. You can tell by the collar .

Can you believe it?

Hope you are having fun.

I Go On A Visit

I went in the car to Tappan. Then we went for a walk and there was grass to play on.

This is Professor Joba inspecting the grass.

Then we ran round a lot.

You can tell this because our tongues are hanging out.

Then we played with Henry for a while. I think he was pleased to see me.

I helped him play in his bouncy thing off the door.

The next day we went home in the car.

I hope you had a good weekend too.

Buster

ps:

In reply to some people who have written to me.

I was not sick in the car! That is because I am now grown up.

Professor Joba is on leave from the Cern Institute where he heads a team studying Sub Nuclear Manifestations. He is currently doing dog activities like barking at the mailman and stuff.

Yes, Dexter, I know it! Now there is Henry, me and Joba 's stars do not shine as bright.

We lick him anyway.

Big and Small Dogs, a Toy and Knutty

This is a new guy at the park.

His name is Shadow.

p

Everyone says he is Mini-Me. He is maybe half my size.

This is Oliver and he is very, very big. Maybe a hundred pounds.

He is like my friend Benny who is not big at all.

He is Giant-Benny.

This is a toy Mum got for Henry.

I am not allowed to have it.

This is a picture of Knutty on his rock.

People say: "Aw.......isn't he cute."

Mostly he is like Knutty.

This is another picture of all of us.

You can see me and Benny and Biggie and Ella.

It has been raining.

Odds and Ends, My Big Stick and Looking at Things

Someone painted a picture of this purple  dog and it is in a window in Tappan. 

That is where Henry lives with Joba. In eleven days I will go there.

This cat looks at me a lot when I walk by. I think maybe it has evil intentions.

The stick that I am working on is so big you cannot see all of it.

You can tell I am pleased with it.

We went to a pet expo two weeks ago and saw lots of dogs. 

We saw CesarMilan in the distance. He is on TV. 

Then we saw dogs that have a pedigree and know they are super handsome. But they looked kind too.

 I do not have a pedigree,  but I have a noble profile.

I hope you are not too hot.

Paddling Pool and Marcus

 

Tuesday was a very good day. Suddenly my paddling pool was back!

It was full of water.

 

This is me and Milo in it.

Then Zeus got in it. There was no room left for me.

But today I went in it again.

Below is a picture of Marcus with exactly the same monkey as me!

A note from Buster's Mum:

 I loved Marcus of Umbria, Justine van der Leun's vivid memoir of a year spent in the Italian countryside. The star of the book is Marcus, an enchanting young pointer, whose early life was very different indeed from urban Mr.Buster's -- not that Buster wouldn't love to kill chickens and rabbits; he's not quite so sure about the tick business.....

Justine's spot-on meditation on travel, love and all things Italian(not to mention all things dog) brought back so many memories (both good and less good)of when we lived there years ago. 

Highly recommended.
