Summer Tails
var noskim = ‘true’;
It is strange to think that summer is almost over and autumn is on the way. However, I am sure many of you have the most wonderful memories of summer fun and if they happen to include a pet, well then Argos Pet Insurance have a competition you should probably get entering.
With their Summer Tails competition they are giving away a £100 Argos vouchers. To enter you need to share your favourite summer pet picture with them on Twitter or Facebook and keep your fingers crossed you might be picked for the final round. For full details on how to enter, just pop over to the Argos Pet Insurance website, read up on how to take you pet travelling (always useful information) and find all the entry details.
So what has Sal been up to this summer?
Well other than barking at everyone who goes past, gobbling up her food and leaving lots of fur around the place. She has mostly been occupied with the move. She absolutely loves her new home and is almost like a completely different dog, with a spring in her step that was missing in the old flat. It has been so lovely to see that sparkle come back that she had been missing and everyone else who knows her has been noticing the change as well.
We are yet to go on holiday, though it is coming soon and of course Sally is coming with us (how could we leave her behind) and I’m actually really looking forward to it – getting out in the forest, enjoying the quiet and just being able to relax if even for a few days, sounds like complete bliss at the moment. While, Sal will love all the forest walks and animal watching she can do from the villa windows – watch out though deer, she does like to bark at you!
Summer as a whole for us all has been busy (honestly how long can a move take you, think we hit the 3 month mark almost), but it has most definitely been worth it. We are all so much better for living in a different location and atmosphere and with relaxing times ahead, we can hopefully up the energy levels and be ready to spring into autumn and enjoy perhaps one of my favourite seasons.
What have you and yours been up to this summer, anything exciting?
*This is a collaborative post.
That sounds like an amazing contest to honor your fur baby. The pictures are adorable and I’m glad she likes your new home.
It’s great isn’t it – I shall be keeping my eyes open for the photos people enter. x
How awesome that she’ll go on vacay with you. I’m glad she’s loving her new home. 🙂
She adores it- we went at the weekend and she had a wonderful time in the forest and even got to bark at some deer 😉 lol x
We did a lot this summer! We traveled to Brazil, Virginia, LA, Orlando (Disney)! It was one of my busiest summers ever….
Oh wow what an amazingly busy summer – it sounds like you had some an amazing time though! x
We have a St Bernard and summer is probably not his favorite season. He prefers the snowy cold of winter and hates getting outdoor showers during the summer. .it would make a good photo though!
Aww bless him bet it is hard in the summer. x
We didn’t do as much as we wanted this Summer. We did go camping a couple of times and went to an amusement park.
It sounds like you did get a bit done though and had some fun times 🙂 x
This sounds like a great Argos competition indeed for the pet lover. We have not done anything special except we have been having family gathers more. Thanks for sharing the contest and your summer.
It’s always great to see family – I wish I could see mine more often. x
That is so sweet for the dogs. She is so cute
My summer was spent looking after my baby. We were also able to attend to a number of blogging events which I miss now because has just started and I am needed now by my boys more than ever.
Ohhh that sounds exciting – I hope you had the most wonderful time! x
Happy to hear she loves her new home. Shes so cute!
Thank you so much – it really has made a huge difference to us all 🙂 x
We did a lot this summer as well. It’s hard to believe that it’s coming to an end. I love the season of Fall. It’s my favorite!
I think it has gone by so quickly – I can’t believe Autumn is on it’s way! x
I’m glad Sally has been happy with the new home. Bringing her along for the holiday will be so fun!
Honestly the best holidays are when she is with us – she makes it so much more fun 😀 x
She looks so happy and healthy! Looks like she had fun this summer
Aww thank you so much – she was being naughty and curled up on our bed when I took that photo! Naughty thing lol x
That’s great that you get to take your Sally with you on holiday. I bet she would be lonely without you otherwise.
I always worry she would be as well – even in a really great kennels 🙁 x
She looks very happy in her photos – we’ve been at the beach and just hanging out at home. I hope Sally enjoys her holiday!
I wish I lived nearer the beach – that’s the one thing I would change if I could 😉 x
Summer passed so quickly for me this year. I’m still having a hard time believing the kids have already been back in school for a couple of weeks. That pic is absolutely adorable!
It is crazy how quickly this summer has gone, I can’t believe it is September already! x
My summer was great this year! My son and I really enjoyed our time together.
Aww awesome, that is great to hear you had such a wonderful time 🙂 X
I went to a beach resort this summer. It was awesome
That sounds like paradise – I would love to just go to the beach and relax! x
My summer is always the same. Go to work and mow the lawn. It’s always so much fun. LOL
How often does a lawn need mowing over the summer – it seems to grow like crazy! x
I love Sal! Our dogs love the summer. They have recently gotten a taste of pool living and they love it. Any water is their kinda thing!
We tried to buy Sal a paddling pool once, she wouldn’t go anywhere near it – even if I was stood in it! She loves wild water though. x
Sal is such a cute little pup. I bet moving is such a weird experience for a dog, since you can’t explain it to them.
Yeah I wish you could, she seems to have taken to this place like it was always her home thankfully! x
What a cute dog! My kids and I made a bucket list and we did about half of the things on it. I must say, I was glad to see school start again.
Thank you! What a great way to tackle the summer as well, well done on doing so much! x
That is so sweet. I love how much you love your dog. He is so cute.
We did a lot this summer! We traveled to Michigan and California and over spring break we went to South Africa! We love to travel! You dog is ADORABLE! I can’t wait to get another dog!
Oh wow what an amazing summer it sounds like you have had! x
I’m so glad Sal is enjoying her new home. She is such a cutie pie!
Sally is such a cutie pie! Moving can be so stressful, but I’m glad that you and Sal love your new home. It’s been a busy summer here and I’ll be spending the week of Labor Day at the beach, so that will be a fun goodbye to summer.
