Rolliīs Diary

 

My name is Rolli - Galbaras Minstrel - and this is my diary page. Sometimes I have been writing more and sometimes less. I need to think things over before I write, you know. 

My life is occasionally quite boring and sometimes lots of things happens! So on those boring times I sit and think...others say that I sleep but that is not true! Iīm just meditating! Beicdes some things are quite embarassing so I donīt want to write down just anything. That is why I must think what iīll write and what Iīll skip.

Anyway, Iīm in the leading role. Ofcourse. Dogs in the other roles may wary - depending of what happens. So names come and go but donīt let that bother you! Iīm ofcourse all the time envolved. That is the most important thing and the story itself ofcourse also. :-) 
   

                                                                                              
                                                                                             
September 2003

I have had a wonderful life! So much has happened during these years, but lately has happened something special. Iīm going to be a father! But I refuse to pay any maintenance payments, I must say that.

Oh, you should have seen me during maiting time! I was posing to Sarah and I looked SOOO handsome. (Tail wagging madly, ears like rosettes and eyes like plopping out of my head at any minute, said our human.) But guess what Sarah did? She was playing hide and seek and made me run after her until our human stopped her. At night then I made our home look a little different. I just had to move places of carpets and guard Sarahīs creat because of my brother. I didnīt want him to come near Sarah. I almost forget to eat, I was so busy. 

Our human is in a hurry at the moment. Good for me because Iīm sitting here and computing. She would be shouting if she would notice me. Just like last time. I still think I didnīt do anything forbidden. I ONLY marked keyboard. And only three times because it looked so strange and I wanted brother to understand to whom it belongs. 

Then we decided to run away with my brother when it would be Sarahīs labour time. I donīt want to be an assistant at that time. After all Iīm a man! So we packed our things and hopped into car. Come on human, lets go, we shouted. And she heared us!

Well, there was also some other dogs with us too, not just me and my brother. But anyway we went to central Europe. First we arrived to Tallinn by boat and then we drove to  Holland, Germany, Luxenbourg and then back to Germany again. Our human sais she can drive!! LAUGH LAUGH LAUGH!!!! She drives 80km/h  at autobahn, sais it is economical driving?? And what about her landscape driving then? 60km/h!! I just had to put paws into my eyes and ears, I was so ashamed. She was a road block, I tell you that. 

Then those humans had a GREAT idea. They made us to follow them into different kind of tourist places. Natural park was a good one. Especially because of thos two ponies we saw. After they had dissapeared we practised some tracking with brother and that was fun. Then one day a dog run out of one house and came into street to see us. It was barking a lot all the time. Gladly too other dogs stayed inside. We had an emergency meeting with brother and we would have beaten those all up if needed, but gladly we didnīt have to.

But I must say sheeps would have been too much for me and my brother. Thankfully they were friendly. I mean there was hundreds of those animals. We decided to be as quiet as possible and pretended being invisible. Milla was trying to bark few times but then couple sheeps started coming ahead of us so she decided to be quiet too. You should have seen her eyes! She obviously thought they are going to eat her!

And what about those castles humans tried to get into? They tried to into two different castles but both were closed. No knights for me said our human and smiled. Well, those knights would not have been very rich anyway because other castle was in ruins and other one was almost collapsing. So, good for her she never met those knights!

At the time we were in Europe Sara had four puppies. I havenīt seen them yet because they live in upstairs and our human does not let me there. I think it has something to do with the thing I tried to make her bed look like waterbed.


I love hing speed driev and I wanted to contiunue car drives after out European holiday. One day after out trip whan we were already back home, our human came home from shop. We tried to rush into a car at the same time with my brother and it end up to be a dandie fight! Now my brother has one stitch in his eyelift and I have three in my leg.  We growled few days to each other and competed which one is more ill. I am ofcourse!! I was lying on livingroom soffa and was SOOO sick. Human gave some goodies to eat...which I would not have eaten if I would known there was a pill hidden in!! Antibiotics, said our human. Uuugh! She managed to fool me badly...

                                                                                  Travelling with Rolli 3.10.1999

We were at dog show! And it wasnīt just any show but a Terrier Speciality. My breeder and a woman I have adopted were with me. I got a chance to see the "big world". Wow! It is just that I did not see very much of it! Our own human drives like mad so it is better to sleep all the time. Otherwise one might feel scary. She denies that she drives fast but we all know that she does!

Anyway, I had to wear a very slim string which was called a wshow leash. I didnīt like it at all! I mean, try to wear one yourself! It feels hard around oneīs neck so I decided to start a stike. I refused to walk totally with that string around my neck. No way! I decided that shall not walk a single step! No matter how hard our own human tried! And those sausage pieces she got were totally useless when I was in strike! And guess what?! So it happened that this new terrible thing was taken away from my neck. Guess if I was happy?! ....until I got a new leahs around my neck! Blaah. Ok, lets make a deal. Iīll walk and you give me LOTS of sausages...? Ok?

My sister was there also but I was actually too busy to say more than just a quick hello. I was a bit worried you know. Ouor own human is quite quickly so I had to keep an eye on her. She might easily have lost among all those people that were there. And then I had to go to the ring also. I had to walk here and there. The man called judge told what to do. And I didnīt get so many saysages I would have wanted. But I got some. I was wondering where were the rest of them? On Leilaīs MOUTH???? But they were MINE!!!!!!!!!! Now we must call to SPCA! This is defenetly misstreating of a poor little dog!

And then, suddenly, I was put to crate and my breederd and owner left! Just like that! Oh, dear! I had to take a deep breathe and open my mouth and protest a little! Ouuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!! Didnīt help much so I had to raise the volume a little. OOUUUUU!!!!!!! And I tried to scratch the crate door also. Ooops! And it was just a bit too late when I realised that I had made a big mistake. Breeder came and told me (not very nicely) to shut up. I thought that it was better to obey her! You see, I had a little fight with my brother and step-sister two weeks ago and I had hurt my leg. So the breeder was afraid that Iīll hurt my leg again.

And then came my own human and opened the crate and took me away from there. Finally! She lifted me to her laps and boy I enjoyed that! I was soooo happy! She decided to sit on a small chair when holding me. Later I was happy that it was just a small chair and quite low also. Because suddenly it broke and we fell down!!! Leila just laughed and laughed and my breeder had to lift her up. Some people were scared that we hurt ourselves but I was more embarrassed than scared. EVERY ONE was looking at us!

And the show results then? Sister was BOB-puppy and I was BOS-puppy. So that was not bad at all. Oh, and I must thank the owners of my father who live in Kajaani. It was very good advice which mentioned sleeping in the bed. I really enjoyed that! And because the owner was worried about my hurt leg she let me sleep with her. And if she woudl have been thinking otherwise boy I would have been hurt! I would have shown how badly my leg hurted. I didnīt bother me at all when I was happy but there is no need to tell our own human that! ;-)
