Hovawart gathering :-)

Dear friends,

tuesday was very happy day for me. My friends Alessa and Bono came to visit me. Alessa is living in Novo mesto and Bono is living in Skofja loka. Since I'm living in the middle I was glad to be their host. They came early in the morning becouse it's very hot these days in Slovenia. Hovawart dogs don't like hot:-)

Alessa and I

Bono and I

We took a long walk in the woods where nice shadow was protecting us :-) After a while we came to beautifull meadow to play and take some photos...boy was I running again... to catch ball first, of course :-) I'm in excellent condition becouse of my running with Ron the whippet remember? But Alessa and Bono were running fast too!

Hi, girls and boys, I'm baaaaack! How are you?

My vacations didn't went so good as I expected. My mommy got a serious astma attack, so our walks were more or less short. But I did visit again my "friends" deers up on Deers hill, where is a big homely guest house and they breed deers. Look how close to them I was..sigh! I just get once to chase them for 10 minutes up and down the hills when I was 6 months old and my mommy and daddy waren't paying atention...huuuuiiiii, what fun that was!

So there is nothing much to report.But I'm OK with it as long as I was tgether with mytwo all 4 days, snuggling, rubbing, kissing, licking...and all this stuff hehe...

But let me tell you about my progress chasing Ron the whippet. We went again on our walk together and here are some pictures:

Running....

Our tongues are pretty the same, right?

and then: Ron, what's up?

OK, buddy, let's lay down for a while...

Hej, Roooon, are you dad,man?

Woooof, luckily he stood up...

And me? Fresh as morning dew hehehe...

I'm looking forward to see him again today...although my mommy still have problem breathing I hope for a short walk.

Kisses and hugs, Nessa

Sprehod z mojo najboljšo prijateljico Alesso / Promenade with my best friend Alessa

Alessa and me

Včeraj smo šli v Novo mesto na obisk k moji prijateljici Alesski. Super, sva se spet malo videli, čeprav se ravno veliko ne igrava, ker je Alesska leto starejša in zato že prava hovawart dama in če veliko rinem vanjo mi takoj pokaže...no, zobe. Zato lepo tečem ob njej, za slikanje pa me je kar težko pripraviti, saj se raje previdno držim na distanci haha. Ampak, ko smo se odpravljali domov in sem bila že na svojem prostoru v avtu, je Alesska tekala okoli in okoli avta in tako milo cvilila, da sta me mojadva še enkrat spustila ven. Kako se me je razveselila! Takrat se je pa res videlo, da sva prijateljici in sva veselo dirkali po dvorišču.
Kot je Smiljan kasneje preveril, smo prehodili več kot 8 km okoli mesta, zato sem bila kar pošteno utrujena, da o mojihdveh ne govorim, hahaha...Tea je sproti vse dokumentirala in voila, slikce so tu. Hvala, Alesska, za lep dan. Drugič pa se vidiva na našem koncu, a ne?

Yesterday we went to Novo mesto to visit my best friend Alessa. It was great indeed, we saw each other again, although we do not play much because Alessa is year older and therefore the right hovawart lady, and if I push her she shows to me... well, her teeth. So, I nicely run with her. For fotoshooting I was difficult to prepare, I rather stay carefully on distance :-)). But when we wanted to go home and I was already on my place in the car, Alessa was running around and around the car and whined a lot, so my mom and dad let me out once again. How we were joyfull! Then it was really shown how good friends we are when we were cheerfuly running in the yard.
As Alessas dad verify later, we walk more than 8 km around the city, so I was really tired. About my mom and dad I rather will not speak :-) Tea, Alessas human sister, has kept all documented, and voila - photos are here. Thank you, Alessa for a nice day. Next time I'll see you in my neighbourhood, right?

Sprehod po Ljubljani / Walk through old Ljubljana

V nedeljo dopoldan je bil prelep dan, zato sta se mojadva odločila, da gremo na sprehod po Ljubljani, kjer je vsako nedeljo bolšjak, zdaj, med prazniki, pa tudi ogromno stojnic in veliiiiko ljudi. Zaradi moje socializacije, seveda. Spet. Avto smo pustili v Trnovem in se napotili peš ob Ljubljanici. Ojej, koliko skušnjav zame! Neznane vonjave, predvsem pa - ptiči(golobi) na vsake nekaj metrov. Mislim, da Bojančko močno boli roka danes, ker sem jo nekajkrat prav grdo povlekla, hihi...No, saj je ona mene tudi nazaj, tako da sem se proti koncu sprehoda malce umirila ;-) Čeprav je bilo okoli mene ogromno nog in čudnih zvokov, se nisem prav nič bala. Tule pa je nekaj utrinkov iz sprehoda:

On Sunday morning was a beautiful day, so my mom and dad decided to go for a walk in Ljubljana, where every Sunday fair take place. Now, during holidays, there is a lot of stands and a lot of people. We went there because of my socializing, of course. Again. We left the car near the center and we went on foot by the river,called Ljubljanica. Oh dear, how much temptation for me! Unfamiliar smells, and above all - birds (pigeons) every few meters. I think my mom is having a lot of pain in her arm today, because have pulled her quite a few times, hihi ... Well, since she'd pulled me back, I walked a little slowly towards untill the end of promenade ;-) Although it had been around me a huge leg and strange sounds, it become a thing I'm not afraid anymore. Here are a few pictures from our walk:

Danes je bil prelep jesenski dan...

...sonček je sijal, tako da je prav vabil ven. Skakljala sem in skakljala okoli Bojančke, tako da sem jo spravila na noge. Tu okrog nas je veliko gozda in možnosti za sprehod, tako da skoraj nikoli ne srečava nikogar. No, razen, ko greva mimo tistih nekaj hiš pred gozdom. Tam je pri vsaki hiši privezan kak kuža in ko začne lajat prvi, se začnejo dreti vsi po vrsti, ko greva mimo hehe...Jaz pa rep pokonci, malo pocvilim in grem hitro mimo, čeprav ne morejo do mene...ker nikoli ne veš.

Danes sva šli spet na "tadolg" krog, ki traja več kot uro hitre hoje...najprej v hrib proti Orlam. V hrib vedno vlečem kot nora, da gre Bojančki lažje hehe...ko pa prideva v gozd, me spusti in takrat vse pretečem in prevoham, saj se tam giblje veliko divjih živali. Nekje na sredi gozda je ena lepa strma jasa, kjer se vedno ustaviva, da se po mili volji naletam za žogico ali pa kongom in malo pridobivam na kondiciji ;-). Ko imam dovolj in se uležem v travo pa se spustiva navzdol proti vasi, čez travnike in domov. Super, vam povem.

Tole pa je nekaj slikic iz današnjega sprehoda...

Počasi sem rasla v malo damo

Moji dnevi do 1 leta so potekali zelo hitro in živahno. Ves čas se je nekaj dogajalo. Vsaj dvakrat na dan so naju z Bello peljali na travnik na sprehod. Bella se je ponavadi vlegla na začetku travnika in me ves čas spremljala z očmi. Če pa se je počutila bolje, sva uganjali prave norčije ...večinoma mi je pustila, da sem se valjala po njej in se delala, da sem taglavna hihihi.

Včasih, ko sem ji kar preveč natežavljala, pa mi je morala pokazati, da je še vedno ona šef...

Ti bom že pokazala, tamala...

Pri vsem tem valjanju po tleh sva se seveda tudi umazali, tako da je vsake toliko časa sledilo kopanje. Ne razumem sicer, zakaj je to treba...sebi se nisem zdela prav nič umazana, črna sem bila kot vedno, pa še svoj vonj sem imela ;-). No, ja, na koncu koncev pa kopanje niti ni tako slabo, še posebej, ker so ...

...me potem faaaaajn crkljali in mi govorili, kako sem lepa, hehe.

Prišlo je toplo poletje in odpravili smo se na kratek dopust na morje, v Strunjan. Morja od blizu sicer nisem občutila, ker je bilo zelo vroče, na plaži pa do večera veliko ljudi, zato me mojadva nista utrujala, sem rajši ležala cel dan z Bello v senčki. No, ja, naj bi ležala. Ampak ker sem bila pravi pasji froc, sem stikala okoli po soncu toliko časa, da sem imela jezik do tal. Takrat se Bojana odloči - pod tuš z mano! Takrat sem videla, čemu ljudje pravijo "kot polit cucek" hahaha... Saj sem že ohladila, no !

Tudi Bella je bila deležna "obdelave" hehehe..
...še posebej temeljito pred odhodom domov :-o .

Dnevi so se krajšali, postalo je hladno, zato smo izkoristili vsak lep dan za sprehod...

...po travnikih,po gozdu, tudi v mesto so naju peljali na sprehod.

Sledil je dopust v Termah Olimije. Fensi. Ko smo se sprehajali okoli hotela, smo bili glavna tarča pogledov. No, jaz in Bella, seveda, mojimadvema pa se je zdelo fajn, da so ju vsi občudovali, kako lepe kužice imata. Če sem čisto iskrena so občudovali Bello, zame pa so spraševali, če sem njen ponesrečen mladiček hahaha...za hovawarta seveda še niso slišali. Bo treba naredit nekaj na tem področju....

Prišla je zima. Nekajkrat vmes sem celo videla, kaj pomeni besedica "sneg", saj ga je bilo le za vzorec. Še dobro, da so me poslikali, da imam za spomin. Tudi prvo Novo leto sem praznovala, seveda v obvezni opremi. Za darilo sem dobila pravo novoletno piskajočo žogico.Take imam najraje in potem "natežavljam" s tistim uiuiuiu cel dan hehe.

Jaz moram tukajle pozirat v tej hecni kapi,

Mico se pa lahko zadaj na radiatorju izležava, a ne?

Ves čas pa je bilo seveda veliko crkljanja, na katerega sem se že dodobra navadila in zato včasih kar sama zlezem v naročje ;-). Predvsem pa sem se zelo navezala tudi na Bello, ki sem ji rekla kar "moja krušna mamica". Vse dneve sva pretičali skupaj, tudi ponoči sem včasih ušla k njej na posteljo. Takrat je bila doma še Tejica in sva se jo z Bello ves čas tiščali, najraje takrat, ko se je učila. Z nama je bil seveda tudi muc, včasih eden, včasih oba.
