I'm Going To Crufts!

Well since I last posted lots has happened. I have been to 2 shows and at the last one I qualified for Crufts. My picture is on the Spinone Club website at http://www.italianspinone.co.uk/images2006/ISCGBOpen/M-Zambuca.jpg. Well I haven't been to Crufts since I was a puppy so it will be an exciting day out for me.

Last weekend I had to go to a grooming workshop. Yuk! We took Bobby with us and he spent all his time hiding under a table cos he doesn't like being groomed either. It was nice to meet some other Spinoni though and we had a good time really.

Good Hair Day

My mum has been busy recently so I haven't been able to update my blog. But today I'm quite excited because I'm going to a show tomorrow. The down side is that I had to be brushed .... I hate this and try to make it as difficult as I can. But I have to admit my hair needed a bit of a make over and now you can see that I have quite long eyelashes, they almost reach the end of my nose!

I've been learning a new trick since I last wrote. It's called "Catch". My mum sits me in front of her and throws a knotted pull which I try to catch in my mouth. More often than not her aim isn't too good so I miss it but today we had improved. After a while I get bored though so can't be bothered to move my head. But tonight we tried with a different thing to catch - a prawn cracker. Well that's much better, even if her aim isn't too good I seem to get them every time and love the way they crunch when I bite into them.

Back to the show though, we are going to Leicestershire in the morning with Bobby (who lives with me) and my best mate Luca. I don't often go to shows so it's a real treat for me to have a day out and meet some other spinone friends. Watch this space.

Buca's Bad Hair Day

Here is a picture of me. This was a bit of a bad hair day for me, I've had a trim since this was taken!

About Buca

My name is Buca (Michiamo Zambuca is my posh name). I'm an Italian Spinone dog and I live in Ringwood with my Spinone family, Riva, Hudson, Bobby and Fraggle. Fraggle is my mum and was named after Fraggle Rock as she looks like the dog in the programme.

I decided to start a blog because I think I will have lots to write about and I like to spend time chilling in the garden whilst pondering life as a Spinone.
