Welcome to my Blog!

Hi everyone! Welcome to my blog!

I am now 6 months old, 30 kilos, and just had my first off leash experience in an open space: a field with hills behind them. I live in Belgium in the province of Hainaut. A long time ago, there were a lot of mining activities around here. When the mines closed down, the coal was pilled up in hills all around and trees were planted on them. That's where I went this weekend with Alex and Marie. It was super cool, and I came back all muddy! But I am all soft and good smelling now, no worries. Alex and Marie cleaned me up...the mud and the tomato sauce...because I finished up a bit of pasta in a pan (I was allowed to!) and my ears got a lot of tomato sauce on them.
I am becoming really well-behaved. I go to school every Sunday with other retrievers, and I do sit-lay down-go to your chair-stay/wait-go get-find...and let's go for a walk very well. Alex is working on teaching me other tricks, we'll see how I do with those!
I am still trying to become friend with Oliver and Nala (the cats) but they continue to be afraid of me (?!) although Oliver is starting to understand, I think, that I am not that dangerous. In any case, I will keep trying!
My masters say I give them "plein de bonheur" [masters confirm]. It's like that: we love each other a lot, we play a lot, and we hug a lot!
I wish all dogs could have a nice home. Check out my social vibe below, you can help dogs with just a few clicks! Take care, and til soon! I am going to bed...perhaps I'll snore--I usually do when I am really tired.
