Bluey style dog cartoon based on my son’s anxious elderly Staffy cross

My son just sent me a sketch he did of his dog in Bluey style

OMG Squid!! Cuddle her for us, please, while soundly telling her off

Critters

I have one who disappears sometimes for days but thankfully I have fab neighbours who keep an eye out - he hunts rabbits in their gardens then swans back here for fancy kibble!

Hate this - Squid, get your act together!

FFS - how stupid

When it gets dark at 5pm in June is when I lose the will to live

It was super strong for an hour or so in Hawkes Bay so stay safe xx

Let’s just say it was an inside day today!

It’s lessened finally, quite a relief!

I’m about 500 metres from the Haumoana evacuation zone but the wind was so strong it drove rain through our tightly shut louvre windows, so I hope everyone who had to get out of their houses is safe now

Nice

5-6pm! Edit button where are you!
