Traveling The World with my humans

  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...

We returned from Italy after spending a week. Mogli and I enjoyed running around and meeting new people. Everyone we met was so nice. My humans had a couple of meetings over the days, and it looked like they were happy with what they achieved. Now back in Fachbach they worked a lot for a couple of weeks, sitting in front of these big boxes and stressed. The weather wasn’t very good and Mogli and I weren’t too keen to go for a walk. Once we met the owners of Chloe and Cindy and my owners got the news that Cindy crossed the rainbow bridge. This was sad news. After some weeks my humans started moving around things, bringing more stuff from the storage and packing boxes. All of a sudden ,a lot of packed boxes were everywhere in the apartment. Normally when that happens, we are usually about to move somewhere else but the last time they packed boxes like that we moved from Frankfurt to the USA. Are we going back to Nevada? But no, they did not talk about Nevada or flights, they talked about...

We left early the next morning. The humans had breakfast at the B&B while Mogli and I waited patiently in our room. Next stop was Broccostella where we would stay for a couple of days.   Again my humans chose to drive along the coastline as long as possible and luckily they did because shortly after we left Piombino my master saw a sign with “dog beach” written on it. Finally, Mogli and I could feel sand under our paws, feel the sun on our fur and run on the beach. Mogli wasn’t sure if he liked it, he was very skeptical about this weird feeling on the paws and the salty, moving water. After a while he loved it but he did not go into the water. I tried to walk into the sea but it was cold – too cold for me anyways. We spent more than half an hour on the beach before we went back to the car and drove on.   In the early afternoon we arrived in Broccostella, at the Agriturismo La Pesca Villa www.facebook.com/agriturismolapesca. Miriam, the owner, welcomed us warmly a...

My humans did not get up too early so Mogli and I had a good long night. My humans packed most of the stuff they had taken to the room the night before back in the car. Then they took us to the car and Mogli and I waited in the back of the car while our humans had breakfast and checked out of the hotel. Great opportunity to have another nap before we would be on the road again. We did not take the Autobahn, instead my humans tried to drive along the coastline as much as they could. They said we weren’t in a hurry and they thought it’s nicer to be able to enjoy the drive. Our next stop was Piombino where my mistress booked a room in a B&B. It was a nice drive and we could see the Mediterranean Sea. In the afternoon we arrived at the B&B called Regina Margerita, just like the name of the street where it is located in Piombino. www.bedreginamargherita.com/ It’s a small B&B close to the historic part of the city. In the evening my humans decided to walk into town to g...

Not much happened the last couple of months. My humans were very busy working on the big box they call computer. They move something called mouse and all of a sudden they have colorful pictures on the box. Their mouse does not smell and does not have fur or a tail and it does not run away – how boring! Now we have to go to Italy to talk to some people there, my humans will talk, not Mogli or me. Today we left early in the morning. Mogli and I had our dog beds in the car. The night before I had to go out to take care of some personal business. Not only once but twice. My humans hardly got any sleep. Luckily I was able to sleep in the car. After a couple of hours of driving we arrived in Switzerland and later Italy. When we came to the Italian border control nobody was there and we could just drive over the Swiss border.   Switzerland has a lot – and I mean a looooooot – of tunnels. Short ones, some open on one side like a gallery and others are pretty long, just like the Gotthard tu...

 My mistress is busy painting walls, doors, ceilings and furniture. Because my humans do "Living for work" they help around the house wherever help is needed. In return they can live in a room, apartment or camper for free and sometimes even food is included. So, my mistress goes painting a few hours every day whereas my master does other things, like repairs.  I can't smell much chemicals when my mistress comes back after doing paint jobs. She uses chalk colors. In the pictures you can see some things she painted. before - after After my humans finish their work around here, they work on their software or walk us dogs. Sometimes we walk up the hill to the big cross or to the little oratory. Other times we drive to the woods or to the field on top on one of the hills. Mogli and I can run free there. We both love running free, but I get tired easily. I have to admit, I am getting oder and calmer, whereas the young fellow Mogli never gets tired. He is having so much fun whe...

  I already told you that I love food, not just dog food but human food as well. My humans fed me a lot of different dog foods, some of them I liked, others I did not. They feed me dry food, my digestion is not too keen on wet food. In the USA I had food with peanut butter flavour, or cheeseburger flavour, in Canada it was mainly hamburger flavour. Here in Germany it's chicken or beef flavour, sometimes duck. None of them were outstanding. While we were in Burg, Dithmarschen a year ago, my humans found a shop that sells dog food mainly made out of fish. My humans bought a sack of food there and I loved it right away. Mogli? Don't ask him, he will anything, he doesn't care.  Mogli: "That's not true, I love a good taste. I only eat paper because I can chew on it and will not tear anything else apart. Remember, I'm a Husky and I love fish, that's in my blood. I was born in Swedish Lapland." Be quiet, you don't care how the food tastes, as long as it i...

 Funny dolls in the garden, Chloe and Cindy and my mistress broke her arm - April 23, 2021 On Easter Sunday my humans, Mogli and I went for a walk in the woods. All of a sudden while talking to my master, my mistress slipped and fell. She fell on her left side, very hard, and I could hear a crack. She was in a lot of pain when she got up again. My master took her to the Bundeswehr Krankenhaus (a hospital) in Koblenz. My master, Mogli and I had to wait quite a while until she finally came back to the car. She had a cast on her left arm, the arm was broken and needed to be in the cast for about 6 weeks. Now she can't take a shower and needs help doing somethings. Luckily my master is here and can help her. Sometimes when our humans take Mogli and me for a walk at the Lahn we meet two boxer dog girls named Cindy and Chloe. It's fun playing with them and if no other dogs are around we can run free. Cindy is older than I am and she doesn't like it when I say hallo doggy style, y...
