On Friday my humans and I went to Auckland Regional Botanic Gardens, one of my favorite places, and I met a peacock there. I had been to the place many times, but I had never seen a peacock there. I wonder where he came from. From the Auckland Zoo, where my Mum says she has seen a peacock walking around freely? But, do you think a peacock can fly from the Zoo to the Botanic Gardens over 25km away?
Look, I found a peacock across a pond!
He was showing off a display of his beautiful feathers.
Later I went over to have a closer look.
My Mum told me not to scare him, so it was the closest I was able to get to him. But anyway we had to leave as it started raining. I hope to meet him again when I go there next time!
On Saturday we went to a dog show at New Zealand Kennel Club Ardmore Exhibition Centre to meet my breeders and their Beagles including a litter born in late November. I think I behaved very well while I was there, quietly watching the puppies eating their breakfast and treats. I think my breeders were impressed by how good I was, because they gave me a dried tendon too.
On Sunday we had this year's first coursing of the Hound Racing Club at NZKC Ardmore Exhibition Centre. I love racing more than anything! I was so excited that I just couldn't stop barking while I was hearing the noise of the reeling machine. I had a great run with my team mates, Holly the Poodle and Chloe the Beagle.
Look at our fantastic run!!
Lucky girl you are, Cinnamon! It's nice to se you back in action.

Do you know, Cinnamon, my humans never took me to the Auckland Botanic Gardens? They kept saying "next weekend" - and now it's too late! I wish I had the chance to go. Although that peacock looks a bit scary to me - I think you were very brave to go up so close like that.
ReplyDeleteAnd oh! I LOVE the photos of you doing Hound Racing! Especially the action shots! What a great camera your humans must have to get such clear pictures!
