Nobby says hello

So here I am. Nobby. Standing on the shoulders of giants. Or so I'm told. First there was Hamish the Westie. Then there was Bouncing Bertie

Will I be 'Nice Nobby' or 'Naughty Nobby'?

Time will tell!
 
We can at least be sure that I am an eight week old puppy from Craigmancie Wire Fox Terriers, just settling in to my new home with Gail in Aberdeen. Right now I'm feeling a little overwhelmed, and missing my litter mates Olaf, Tilly and Biddy. But I'm pleased I was allowed to bring Smelly Tigger with me.

Oh and by the way, I want you to know that I share a birthday with Scotland's bard Robert Burns and with the Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. 

I'm looking forward to making lots of new friends and I hope you'll be following my adventures...

Toodle-oo for now!

  2. Welcome Nabi! I'm so happy to meet you I am both mom and he said to tell you he thinks you are absolutely adorable. We will be here to watch you and your adventures with her new mama Gail and we are so happy to meet you. I can tell you are going to be as good as birdie at staring into the camera you've already got that part down. Hugs and kisses to you on your first few days at home. Now I'm waiting to see if you will grow into the same size as your smelly tiger

  3. Welcome to blogland wee fella. You certainly have an auspicious birthdate. No one will forget. (My humans had to make mine up and gave me 1 April 🙄 They don't forget but I don't think they take me seriously.) The warm season is on its way so you will be nosing your way about the garden in no time. Paw smacks Mr T

  5. Oh Nobby, you are a cute little pup!
    You have so much to learn and there's a great big world out there, ready for you to explore. I'm sure we'll come along with you, and Gail, on your many adventures.

    Love,

  7. Oh Nobby we are so very pleased to meet you. I will admit to being struck with puppy love.
    As for your sharing your bday (January 25) with great 2 great men, May I add it was also the bday of my Annie Ma, my maternal grandma. She was a great lover of animals which she shared with me. Tinkerbell was small and feisty and did a great job putting fear into all the squirrels in her back yard.
    I hope you, Tigger and Gail slept well. FYI humans do best with lots of sleep but not with lost sleep.
    Hamish and Bertie paved your path to Gail's heart. I am sure you will keep her on her toes just like they did.

    Hugs and nose kisses
    Cecilia and Bryan

    1. Gail here: I need to figure out how to do this properly. I think the original method is no longer available.

  14. Hello Nobby. I'm Joey, a 15 1/2 WFT rescue successor to two legendary Barkalotboyz, Jake and Just Harry, so I know how it feels to have big paws to fill. But what I've learned in my 2 1/2 years here is that love has no limits and only grows from one of us to another. Especially, if I may say, if one is an absolutely adorable wee WFTee. So welcome young lad!!! You have chosen well.

  18. With such a shared birthday, we are certain you will become a National Hero. For now, taking care of Smelly Tigger seems enough.

  20. Hi Nobby! There is no minimum age or species requirement to enter the snow contest. We would let a squirrel enter if they wanted. Lee and Phod

  22. Welcome to the clan and to Blogsville, Nobby! Since you're a puppy, you are almost expected to be naughty Nobby for a while. Then you can grow into good Nobby! In any case, we are going to follow you around and see what you get into. That way we can say to our Mom, you can't be mad at us for THAT! Lookie what Nobby did! XOXOX Xena, Lucy and Chia

  23. Nobby, please tell your Mom we can't figure out how to follow your blog. When we click on "Subscribe to Nobby's blog" we get a choice of "netvibes," "my yahoo,' and "Atom." There's nothing there to let us subscribe. eeek!
