November 1, 2017 – Hibernation

I heard my humans talking about hibernation. They said bears hibernate which means they sleep during the entire winter. Wow, that sounds great to me. Sleeping is my main hobby and I am really good at this.
But – wait a minute. That means they are not eating the whole time. No way I could stand that. I love eating.

My mistress told me more about hibernation. Not only bears hibernate but chipmunks and hedgehogs hibernate too. Bears even give birth to their cups while they hibernate.
On a second thought I think I don’t like hibernation. I prefer being a dog and am able to survive without hibernation. Cuddling with my humans, playing in the snow and having nice food is way better than sleeping in a cave for a couple of months.

May 12, 2024 - My humans keep telling me I am a destroyer. Do you know what they mean?

 Hello and ciao, it's me again.  I am growing up and believe it or not, I can jump the couch now and climb the bed! Isn't that awesome? It's getting warmer now and most of the time the door to the terrace is open and I can go outside whenever I like. But I am still not allowed to be in the yard on my own. Really? I don't have a clue why! My people keep telling me that I can't be left alone because I destroy everything. What do they mean by that? Well, I do have to admit that at the beginning I loved chewing on shoes, especially on crocks. They are so soft and you can sink your teeth into it so nicely. It was also fun because my people ran after me and play fetch when I took their shoes and ran around the house. My people didn't like that too much though because the shoes were dripping afterwards.  After the shoes I found out that plants taste delicious. My favorite is the olive tree and the orange tree, rosemary and basil aren't bad but the taste is too stro...

Our new home – January 4, 2022

  My turn, my turn, my turn! Hej everyone smørrebrød, it’s me, Mogli! Lupo needs a break, he’s getting old. I will blog now!   No, you will not, this is my blog and you can help me once in a while. For now you can go on, but I will have a close eye on you. Don’t blog any nonsense.   Smørrebrød, ok, you are the boss old man. My English is not good. Please be patio with me, no patient. Today we moved into the house. We had to leave öhrli, early in the morning. San Quirico, the town where we move to, is located on a mountain. We drove up-hill for quiet, quite a while. Smørrebrød, tabernac, writing in English is not as easy as I thought. My humans, sorry, our humans, were afraid we wouldn’t make it to San Quirico with the trailer. But we did! We drove by at first, there was no smørrebrød number on the house. This seems to be common in Italy. And if there are numbers on the houses they are not in order. Not all the time I mean.   The landlord, was waiting for...

Ciao tutti!!!! April 1, 2024

Ciao a tutti, io sono Balu. Parlo correntemente italiano, ma i miei nuovi umani non mi capiscono molto. Ora devo imparare il tedesco e l'inglese. Ma siamo in Italia ed è una lingua così bella.  Ok, let's try that in English, I am a fast learner when it comes to languages and not so much when it is about behavior or other things. Ciao tutti, I am Balu. I speak fluent Italian, but my new humans don't really understand me. Now I have to learn German and English. But we're in Italy and it's such a beautiful language. My humans told me that a lot of people are reading this blog and I fear I have big footsteps to fill.  In contrast to Lupo I haven't traveled much. My longest ride was from the refugio in Rome to my new house.  When my humans picked me up I didn't know what to expect, but I seem to have hit it well. Mogli is the best buddy I could have wished for - very patient and smart. Sometimes he wants to be left alone and I try to find out how far I can go wit...
