The PON golden rule .




The hottest place in France yesterday . 24 degrees . With the light cloud cover felt more like 30 . Wilf spends his day listening to Angus stacking wood in the barn . Mid-morning , Aude , the decaratrice , arrives with a box of supermarket dog biscuits . A gift from the womens cooperative . A very rare accolade indeed. ' Bonjour Wilfee ' . The family fellow gently takes an orange coloured biscuit from Audes outstreched hand and saunters over to the middle of the courtyard to devour it in peace . The family fellow a strict adherent to the PON golden rule: Sleep til you're hungry, eat til you're sleepy.

    We are surprised (but pleased on Wilf's behalf) to learn that the women's cooperative buys supermarket dog biscuits.

    And if you are a Golden Retriever, then you will also dream of food while you sleep.

    Sending lots of love form NZ to Wilf from Riley (who always looks forward to and drools at the sight of his daily supermarket dog biscuit each morning).

    ...'and get up when you're ready' is the Golden rule our crew adheres to at our house!

    Isn't it nice to have so many admirers, Wilf? Especially when they're always bringing treats! I always smile when I read about his charmed life! :)

    Has there ever been anyone in the history of the world who hasn't fallen for Wilf? (Well, with the exception of that odious vet who falls into her own never in the history of the world category.)
    Dyed store- brand biscuits! Is this like a guest showing up with a really, really unfortunate wine selection? Or are you pleased it's not the co-ops home made ones? I think they're trying, Angus.

    I certainly do follow that PON golden rule too!! :) It looks a bit breezy in the third snap, cooler weather coming perhaps? Let's hope so! Keep on going Wilf, handsome boy!

    With love from your Canadian pals,
    Dianna along with Tor, Willow and Tucker

    Our guys certainly follow that golden rule -- interspersed only with a few intervals of serious barking.

    That's a good golden rule for boxer-beagle mixes and Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers, too! That, and running in and out of the doggie door 87 times a day.

    It was kind of Aude to bring Wilfie a gift, and kind of him to accept it with such grace and apparent enjoyment.
