  1. Dear Plum,

    Take comfort in the fact that humans have the same problem... As much as we may love them, some friends will always be childlike. But I think this gives us balance. We can't all be serious all the time!

    Giorgi adds: Hi Plum! It's been my experience that the "nasty teeth-baring face" isn't always as effective as we hope it will be. Try turning the tables next time. Give Nanook a good smiley lick in the face. The results may surprise you!

    Cheers!
    Ellie and Giorgi

    1. Dear Ellie and Giorgi,
      I am definitely going to try that next time, if I remember.
      It's good to know about humans being like dogs. I hate it when they are serious, unless it's the kind of serious that is about telling me how beautiful and adorable I am. Then I don't mind, as long as it doesn't go on for too long.
      Love Plum xx

  2. Dear Plum,
    What is the world coming to? It seems these days a girl can't take a leisurely walk through the Autumn colours without it all being construed the wrong way. It's a shame we aren't living in the age of Jane Austen. Then, I expect even for dogs it took 300-odd pages before anything much 'happened'. And not a great deal even then.
    love, James (see picture)

    1. Dear James,
      I'm not sure what you mean by 'anything much happened', but I have a feeling its something to do with sniffing bottoms. So I wish I'd lived in Jane Austen times, before anybody used to do that.
      I like your picture.
      Love Plum xx

  3. Scandalous behavior! Back in the day a lady would have given him a good poke with her Chantilly lace parasol.

    But with a name like Nanook.....this was bound to happen, dear.

    1. Too true! Now all I have is a blunt stick. But they can come in handy too. I'm afraid it's really all down to attitude though. I just haven't got the right one.
      Love Plum xx

  4. So today - a RhodesIan Ridgeback, about 20ft high and on MY beach. And there's me, flat on my back in my best all-weather serious mountaineering coat, waving my paws in the air to the vast amusement of too many seagulls with nothing better to do......there should be a law........ xx fudge

    1. There should be a law. Especially today, when I was flat on my back, legs waving in the air, being sniffed all over by a puppy. An enormous puppy. There's no respect any more.
      Deeply depressed, Plum xx
