Gromit's Dog Blog: November 2006

SNOW!!

It has been a while since Gromit has seen the snow. So he was excited to play in our first snowfall here in YEARS!

Walking the Dog

A little help for those 4 legged friends who have a hard time keeping up.

Each month features a beautiful image, but in every picture is a nice picturesque pile of dog poop. Professionally photographed, these pictures are almost breath taking, and yet totally disgusting at the same time. Packed with fun facts and stories about dog poop, this calendar is an ingenious gag gift for both the dog lover and the dog hater!

Mmmmmmm!

Winston Carter Denison

Winston Carter Denison
September 1999 – November 1st 2006

A very dear friend of mine lost his best friend this week. I just wanted to let you know a few things about a great dog named Carter.

Robin adopted Winston Carter in 1999. He was a beautiful full bred Airedale, strong and stout. A fine pick of the litter. From the beginning Carter showed signs that he was a smart and loyal friend. Potty trained in one day and only chewing up one sandal, he was an ideal puppy.

He spent many of his years chasing balls and things that made noise. (I’m sure he loved squirrels) He loved his coat petted and brushed as to always be handsome and attractive for the bitches. He didn’t like big male dogs in his territory and stood his ground well. He liked popcorn and double cheeseburgers from Sonic. (Man, I really miss Sonic, there aren’t any around here.) He enjoyed watching his younger dog brother, Will be ignorant and cause trouble. And all though he was brought home by the chief of police due to a run-in with the law, he was well loved and adored by his entire family. Carter returned that love unconditionally.

“We for the most part called him Cart or Carter, he answered to both. He was a splendid member of this family...and will be greatly missed.”
Robin

I want Robin and his family to know that my heart goes out to them all. Losing a pet member of our family is never an easy thing to go through. Just remember that Carter is somewhere where the fields never end, the streams never run dry, and there is always a ball to be found.

I am very sorry for your loss.
