Giant grass and a lean, mean, puppy machine

As you know, we Miniature Schnauzers are pretty big dogs. Here are some pictures which show how big we are...

You can see that this poor labrador is dwarfed by my enormous presence. He's standing up for himself, though, and pretending he's not afraid!


My friend Millie is also a big dog. Here we are greeting a teensy poodlish dog.



Given how huge we are, you can imagine that if grass grows taller than us, then it's pretty tall!



Here I am bravely trying to break a trail through the grass, using my teeth.



Because the grass is so big, the grass seeds are enormous! They keep getting stuck in my coat, so even though the weather hasn't really warmed up properly yet, my human and I decided I should get a clip.

Now I'm a lean, mean, puppy machine!



Ha ha!



P.S. Happy birthday to my friends JD and Max - they turn one year old today!

Spring fancy

In spring, a young puppy's thoughts turn to... gardening!

...these flowers look tasty...



...I'm helping with the pruning...



...that's much better...
