Thanks for the nice comment.
Puppies are ...Hi Bob.<br /><br />Thanks for the nice comment.<br />Puppies are sure good at soothing :-)<br /><br />As strange as it may sound, saw dust doesn't seem to stick that well to Bertha as does the chips from the planer.<br />She happily tries to dig in the sawdust of the horse boxes every day when she "helps" me clear them out of old horse apples. That sawdust just falls off when she shakes her body.<br />Mud on the other side... I just talked to Mette on the phone, and she told me that Bertha had helped spreading a bit of sand on the riding court, and she was smeared into mud and sand after that job. It normally falls of after the fur dries, but the otherwise nice and cute looking dog looks like some amphibian just straight out of the swamp until she is dry again.<br /><br />I had to explain my points of view to her when it came to chewing on base moulding on an antique clothes cupboard originating from Mettes family... But she seems to have understood it :-)<br /><br />Make sure to give Rudy a treat for being a good soul doctor.<br /><br />Brgds<br />Jonas<br />Jonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-7538459072043044742017-01-19T02:53:07.663-08:002017-01-19T02:53:07.663-08:00Hi Jonas and family

That would be an accident waiting to happen for sure.<br />But there are so many chips lying around after I had used it, and she found it interesting to roll in them and to dig through them as well. <br />Cheers<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-11611842758515766182017-01-18T23:48:54.087-08:002017-01-18T23:48:54.087-08:00Hi Jonas,

They ...We had Newfoundlands too when I was a child. They are indeed very sweet.<br />They do manage to move a lot of dirt and mud around with them too, but I think they sweet nature easily up weighs that.<br />I don't know what it is that is so nice about a shop dog, but I like that she finds it comfortable to cuddle up in a corner and taking a nap while I work on something. If I start banging too loud, like testing out a set of large dovetails for the window frames she will raise her eyebrows and look at me kind of like she is trying to say: Hey, some of us are trying to sleep..<br />I tried using two brooms, I can usually take two or three sweeps with the one not being tugged on before she changes to attack that one. After about a minute I normally give up and enjoy playing with her instead. <br />After all, a clean shop floor is vastly overrated..<br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-88648172165883701812017-01-18T10:35:14.446-08:002017-01-18T10:35:14.446-08:00Hi Xoney

Newfoundland puppies are hard to resist :-)<br />My daughter likes the school, but she has changed to another class.<br />The school suggests that people can change to an different class after Christmas time, and she had decided that she would prefer to take the music line/class instead of the International class. One of the reasons is that the teachers who taught the International class weren't very good in doing so in English, especially not compared to the level that was at her old school. And another reason is that the IB program isn't very well recognized in Denmark.<br />But she really wanted to stay at the school.<br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-34649674725493795922017-01-18T09:24:40.832-08:002017-01-18T09:24:40.832-08:00I grew up with Newfoundlands and Labs.
