Saturday Steps... With Barnie

Our blogging friend Barnie is joining us this Saturday


"Ok Barnie over to you"

GruffHello there to you! 
My name is BordoggyTerrier
 (AKA Barnie to my Buddies!). 



I am a very Large, Handsome, Fabulous 4Leg Hunter Extraordinaire disguised in a little hairy, yet huggable, hunter-wannabe body. 
You can see I am also a wisher ey - ha ha!  I am most honored to come along today and introduce myself. 
I am 2 now, I know, I don't look my wise years, I wonder sometimes where the time goes, do you? 
I live with Mummy/Daddy2Legs and Little2Legs Boy/Girl, Daphne the Cat and Sheila the Finch.  I have only taken up residence in Blogland for 3 months or so, (it's great here as Daphne the cat has not found me yet! - this is my own little place of tranquility), therefore you have to excuse my 'home' as it's not finished yet.  It is, I am afraid, still a bit of a 'work in progress'.  Mummy2Legs has been trying to decorate it after seeing some of your fabulous places - it is not going well it has to be said - oooh my nerves with it all, even one of my Bordoggy Biscuits can't help, any hints/tips would be glady received!
I came here as I wanted to share with everybody a few 'tails' and pictures about my adventures, about my walking and playing with my family, (well you should see me on the trampoline), and just to try to get to know some other Fabulous 4Legs, People and 'Other' out there!  Mummy and Daddy2Legs go walking a lot -  (Mummy2Legs has made some very basic attempts to put a couple of our walks onto YouTube, lets just say everyone has to start somewhere - she is not too good with all this technology you know, bless her she is trying her best, ha ha!). 
We have really enjoyed paw plodding about in Blogland and having a good sniff about everbody's 'pawticulars' with our schnozzle.
 We have made some good friends, I even have a girlfriend - my Posie Princess!  I have been very lucky to have been made to feel so welcome.  Please do come by and see me when you can, to say 'GruffHello', have one of my 'Bordoggy Biscuits', lets have a sniff about with our schnozzles and exchange a bit of pee-mail.  My door is always open............Love Barnie x


"Thanks Barnie, I must see you on the trampoline! sounds fun and if I can have one of your "Bordoggy Biscuit's even better, you didn't waste time getting yourself a girlfriend, I know Posie, cute girl she was here with me  on 19th May"


Pop along and give Barnie a big Welcome to blog Land

Saturday Steps with Finn and a LINK

We found some steps, it was a close shave as the rain didn't stop until late Sunday afternoon. 
I've done these steps before, its our train station and no there's not 397 of them!!

"Ok Finn over to you"



Hewwwow!  I'm Finn, and I live with my Momma and Pops in New York.  Some people say it's the big apple, but we really don't have any large apples around here, I just don't know what's that all about.
Anyway, here I am last fall on some steps to a place called
 a moo-seee-um, it was a historic house where Momma used to work and I got to go with her every day. 
The house was built between 1918-1921 and was called a Gold Coast mansion.  I dunno about that either because we never got any gold there.  Momma says it was the North Shore of Long Island, and back in the 1920s, it was where the elite from New York City came and spent their weekends, like the characters in The Great Gatsby.  The house was in a park and some people who worked there made sure it was decorated for every season, and we love the mums they put out in the fall.  And here I am sitting on the steps to front door.  Where's the butler?  Someone let me in!!


Ok, that's enough rambling for me
Hope you like my steps!



"Thanks for joining me this week Finn, mom loves that door and the flowers are beautiful, of course my eyes are on the steps!"

You can go visit Finn at
