Cookie and Cinnamon's secrets

We went to two different beaches for walks with friends yesterday and today. Yesterday we went to Mission Bay, which is about ten-minute drive from Cookie and Cinnamon's house, with Anko & Kurosawa and today we visited Mellons Bay, which is about twenty-five-minute drive away, with Scoobie.

At Mission Bay, we met two Beagles, which doesn't happen often, and greeted each of them and their humans. It seems Beagle owners have some sympathy among themselves, so they just cannot help talking to the owner whenever they find another Beagle.





We had never been to Mellons Bay before. It is not only a beautiful beach but also a great beach to walk dogs. Accoding to Scoobie's mum, there are about 50 dogs on the beach in the evening!




Honey the Great Dane has given Cookie and Cinnamon the Honest Scrap Blog award. Thanks, Honey! They are honored to be given such a wonderful award.

However, there is one problem. When accepting this award, you have to tell 10 honest things about yourself and choose at least seven blogs which you think deserve this award. However, being beginner bloggers, Cookie and Cinnamon don't have many blog friends, so they cannot choose seven blogs. Would it be rude to turn down the honer of this award?

Nevertheless, we think it is a good idea to list honest things about yourself. So, we will tell you 10 honest things about Cookie and Cinnamon.

1. Cookie bit his mum when he was two months old.
   
   
   At that time, he didn't mean it. He just jumped toward his mum's face and accidentally his teeth scratched his mum's lip. However, he later developed a bad habit of biting his mum (See 'Obedience training').
2. Cookie lost a tooth when he was three years old.
   
   
   Some blood was still visible when his mum, who was trying to brush his teeth, found a tooth missing. We don't know how the tooth broke.
3. Cookie doesn't mind wearing clothes. Actually he loves it!
   
   
   This coat was made by his mum.
4. Cookie loves having a bath.
   
   
   He stays in his bathtub happily until his mum tells him to get out.
5. Cinnamon cried like an avian dinosaur when she was very little.
   
   
6. Cinnamon escaped from her puppy pen more than once. No one knows how she made it!
   
   
7. Cinnamon ate a whole tube of dog toothpaste, leaving only the screw part of the tube, when she was about eight months old.
   
   Sorry. No photo.
8. Cookie lost his ambulation completely once, due to a slipped disk in the neck.
   
   
   This photo was taken at ICU of a pet hospital after an operation.
9. Cinnamon has many stuffed toys which she loves destroying.
   
   
   This gorilla has lost the upper half of his face, having gone through numerous operations.
10. Cookie doesn't like walking in the neighbourhood unless he has his friend with him.
    
    
    With his girlfriend, Bertie, he enjoys walking (See 'Laziness or sickness?').

Honey, thanks again for giving us a chance to make such a memorable list.
