Ten degrees at 8:30am, sunny intervals. Feeling damp.
Mama : [In a full-steam fury] "Jakob! Jakob! Come here! SITZ! Now tell me, what IS THIS?"
Jakob! : "Wasn't me, ma'am! No ma'am yer honour. Me 'twas not! I didn't scatter cacao in the corners, sugar all over the shelves. I didn't go nuts with the noci, oops over the uva, whacky with the walnusskerne. I didn't spray water all over the washer or put pawprints on the porcelain. And I wouldn't ever, ever, ever eat half a bag of dried plums with the pits still in them."
Mama : [In full English-schoolmarm-sarcasm mode] "So tell me, Mr Smartypants. Who was it then?"
"Oh. Oh dear. Oh dear me. I think I need the loo.........."
Mama smiles to herself in an affectionate serves-you-right sort of way, makes a quiet note of the whereabouts of the disinfectant and the pressure-washer, and gently closes the door.

Quite a handful! Now I now why I only adopt adult dogs...
But he's cute!
Just found your blog through SITs. Totally love it and have now added it to my blogroll. I love taking photos of flowers too and reading is a passion!
Ha, but how hard is it to stay mad when you have that cute wee face looking up at you?

Oh! That face!
What a lovely blog. What a "fun" dog!
Stopping by from SITS!
Oh isn't he a gorgeous chap! Why are all the handsome ones such trouble, though?!
HA! I always wondered what those creatures were thinking. Now I know!
Also, Thanks for your comment on my special SITS day. I gave you a special mention in my latest post! (All in good fun!) :-)
That's why nature makes them cute...so you don't blow your top when they do stuff like that:-)
Problem is you can never stay too mad at them for too long... Have a lovely weekend, Love from London x
Can't possibly stay mad at a face like that. Oh, how they do wind themselves around our hearts.
I can tell this animal is blog post material for sure.
Someone looks a little guilty in that picture....

Found you via SITS. You hit my sweat spot with dogs, Italy, good writing and beautiful photos. I spent a lot time in Italy so I will really enjoy following you!
Great story! I know I can relate!
Oh we've had some of those moments in our house too!
