We took him back to our hotel room where we spent some time studying each other.
This was a really fun trip, even though it was an eight hour drive. I've never been in a hotel room before. They loved dogs there. We could walk down the hall like we owned the place!
Mister Higgins had to stay in his pen most of the time and he was sad about it.
"Please let me come out now"
It's lonely in here. . .
But he sure got excited about the room service!
The next day we went for another ride. The Duke's Aunt and Uncle have a farm in Idaho and we got to visit for the whole day.
Just us, going for a walk on the farm.
Mister Higgins got wet and rolled in the dirt. Well, ok, we all did!
But I think he enjoyed it more than any of us.
By the end of the day he was pooped!
The Duchess says living with Mister Higgins is like having a two year old child on roller blades. As soon as we got home he found the toy box. There are toys everywhere now.
It didn't take him long to make himself at home. Sir Bear has to growl at him sometimes. He always wants to kiss Bear's face and Bear isn't too keen on that. I have been having a blast though. Mister Higgins can really run! Sometimes he chases me and sometimes I chase him. And sometimes he is just flat out annoying. You know how kids can pester you till you want to scream? Yep. He does that sometimes. But, for the most part we are doing pretty good here at the castle. It's fun having a friend to play with!
Till next time -
Kisses!
Sounds like you are mostly enjoying your new brither Emma Rose...I will take notes so I can make sure I know what to do when I am a big sister!

Oh Emma Rose, your new brother is just adorable. I love his ears and what is up with that skinny long tail..I hope it gets all bushy! He looks like a sweetie, but I know all pups can be a pain in the neck sometimes..you gotta be patient. Sir Bears probably just hates being slimed by a pup!
ReplyDeleteLOL..two herders taking turns playing the chase game..what fun! :) Kisses from Chance!
Hey there Emma Rose

Hi Emma Rose,
ReplyDeleteMr Higgins is so adorable. We love his running shot with his ears flapping. Running and chasing each other endlessly is so much fun but yeah, sometimes we do get some scolding from mommy when we go crazy. Waaaaah
We look forward to more of your adventures together. Weeeee

ReplyDeleteMom says to get ready with some chewies...teething stage coming up! I love bully sticks and frozen hard bones filled with Cherios and peanut butter...I work on them for quite a while.
Hugs and snaggle-tooth kisses,

Mr Higgins is simply adorable. I loved your analogy "two year old on rollerblades". Yep, that 'bout sums it up! LOL
ReplyDeleteEmma Rose..you are so lucky to have a brother like Mister Higgins!! I bet he is like a two year old on rollerblades since he is just a puppy. Think of all the exercise and fun you all will have together running around and playing! There is nothing like a puppy to get you going and keep you going and make you happy! Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling that Mr. Higgins is going to be lucky that he's so cute! Not that I would know anything about that!

Emma Rose - Congrats on the baby brother. I'm sure he will be a little annoying at times (as all little brothers are) but I know he will bring you hours of joy! - Abbey
ReplyDeleteEmma - I know that Mr. Higgins already loves you! How could he not? Mr. Higgins looks like he's a Bernese mix - very handsome!!
ReplyDeleteYes! Frozen kongs....my mom's getting creative, using cream cheese, or peanut butter with a few cherios thrown in....or, sometimes, when my teeth are really bothering me, I chew on a frozen fabric bone (bought at our local pet shope).
ReplyDeleteI'm working on one of my porkhide chewies at the moment...guess mom didn't like me snaggling the furniture.
Hugs and snaggle-tooth kisses!!!
