Crates Castle
2007-10-21 12:27:00 Mikki and Alfie's first trip to Crates Castle.They were all dressed up for the walk around the Castle grounds and Forest trails.Doesn't Mikki look great in her new red hoody from her aunt Daphne?
Mikki's visit to Dunnottar Castle
2007-08-07 09:03:00 Saturday 4 August was forecasted to be one of the few days where the scottish sun would be shining bright all day. And since I hadn't had much time to spend alone with Mikki after working in London for couple of weeks and introducing a new puppy, Alfie into the family as soon as I got back, I thought it would be fun for her to go on a little excursion - to the great Dunnottar Castle.Mel Gibson's Hamlet filmed a few scenes at Dunnottar Castle:Everything about the castle and its surroundings was just surreal and gorgeous. I could lie on the grass all day just to sink into the magnificent site. Mikki had a ball herself, except that she had to keep herself from being blown away by the constant breeze.Check out what she has to say:
Alfie - Big dog in small body
2007-07-30 21:33:00 Yorkies may be small, but they're no easy pushovers. Alfie, for example, does not have a single strand of fear in him. He reminds me of the Goths from Asterix and Obelix, absolutely oblivious to the real meaning of FEAR.For one, he fell off the flight of stairs last week while trying to reach Mikki who was overwhelmed by his constant desire to play and thought she could get away from him by hiding in the middle of the stairs. Alfie rolled down the entire flight of stairs, only coming to a stop at the foot. Thank goodness my stairs were fully cushioned with carpet, hence reducing the impact. You might think that he would then be terrified of the stairs. Not a chance! He continued to linger to the stairs whenever he gets the opportunity - thinking its time he took the leap and learned to go down the stairs.Here's a new video of the Alfie the monkey!
Alfie - The Yorkie
2007-07-29 12:33:00 Finally, Mikki's got a little brother - Alfie. Took me a really long time to find a suitable companion for her. Because of her size and timid personality, big dogs were ruled out. Alfie was born in Birmingham on 19 May 2007 as part of a litter of 2. He's got an older sister Ruby who was sold to a family in Dundee. His mom Kizi's currently 8yrs old and this is her 2nd litter. His pedigree certificate shows that his gt grandparents were from the famous Ozmilion family.Above are 2 of his great and great great grandfathers.More pictures of Alfie at 9weeks old, you will notice that he's got his ears taped in the last few pictures. Reason for that is because his ears were way too fluffy and they were not standing the way yorkies ears should! Will update more next time on how Alfie and Mikki are getting along... Stay tuned.. |
