Ziggy fell in love the other night. He's fallen for bitches before but I think this time it's the real deal. Her name is Ella and Ziggy let her eat his dinner. I have nothing to report in my own life. The days are full of laughing and talking in stupid voices. I've told Gus that one day I am going to speak to him only in rhymes.
Spending time with my eldest niece once a week has been wonderful. Last week we built a snowman. Of course I say 'we', it was actually me who did all the building while M ra around in the snow giggling about hom much fun it was to run in the snow. Yesterday we did arts and crafts and in no time M had decorated both a tiara and mirror with time to spare to do a drawing for her Daddy. We also did the apple dance to this song, which entertained Gus greatly!
Ziggy is a clever boy but, like me, he just has to do things his own way. Since he mastered the roll over trick he has no time to wait for commands. In his eagerness to receive a tasty reward, when I ask him to 'sit' Ziggy sits, lies down, plays dead and rolls over in one foul swoop. Here's a little video I took of him. It's not great quality and a bit distorted (seemingly the dropping my phone down the toilet incident had some repurcussions) and you might have to tilt your head but other than that, it's great! Here is my wee man.

I love that video! Ziggy is adorable!
Thankyou kindly...he certainly has a charm about him.
Ziggy is a bouncy little Beast. I think he needs to learn to play dead just a bit longer. but if folk are holding treats I would probably do exactly the same. . . . OK not exactly the same, just similar.
I think I've figured that part of his reason for doing it like that is to gain momentum so it's easier for him to roll over lol.
Remember how Danny would, at the first hint of a treat, slam the hell out of any open (or closed) door. Love Ziggy.
Haha, he would race from one end of the kitchen to the other closing both (already closed) doors. You couldn't not give him a bite to eat.
