It has been a while that I had some skin irritations but each time Jessica went to the vet with me and we treated it.

We started with desinfecting all the spots, and after a while they dissappears.

But lately it is getting worse and it can itch a lot. So we went back to the vet for a check up. The vet didn't find a cause for the irritations, so he decided to give me a cortisone treatment and a spray to reduce the itching.

I hope it works, because now it's getting really itchy. The irritation causes round loose scales on my tummy.

On Monday and Tuesday I went with Shunka, Katinka, Viente and Barbara (I know these two from a forum) on a trip to the Brabantse Wal. It's a green area just above Antwerp.
I've never heard of it, so I was very excited.

It was a great two day trip: running in the fields, jumping in the water, searching for wild animals.

In the evening it was a bit cold but Shunka and me were put on our fleece, so we could stay nice and warm after the whole day running around. Barbara was laughing at us for wearing it, but we didn't care.

In the end it was lot's of fun and lot's of new discoveries. I hope we can go again next year.

It's starting to get hot and this means that I'm again searching for cool places. But today I didn't have to look for it because Katinka and Jessica had prepared something for Shunka, Sammy and me.

About 1:30pm we arrived at Katinka's home. When we entered at the back we saw something amazing: a big pink floatable pool for ME!!
Jessica started filling it with water, but that took longer than expected. So Shunka and I started jumping in and out of the pool to cool off.

When the pool was full, Katinka suddenly had cookies and started holding them under water so that Shunka and I had to take them. That wasn't so easy. I had to put my nose under water. That was so strange. When it didn't work out immediatly, I first tried to take it with my paw, but that also didn't seem to work. So after a while I decided to dive in a little more and then I got the cookie!!!

When we were played out, it was time to wash my fur. The shampoo foamed a whole lot and after a while it was more foam that keeshond! How is that possible.

After the bath, Jessica and Katinka were searching to let the water go, but as a result, Jessica accidently ripped the pool and now we don't have our own little pool anymore T-T And now they will have to search for a new one.

You may have noticed that in this 3 years, I've never mentioned the word 'fireworks'. That's because I've never been to a place where there was such event. But tonight I've seen my first fireworks!

Normally when Jessica goes to bed, I get a biscuit and also go to sleep. But suddenly she was back next to me and put on my leash and we went outside. After a while I noticed that we were heading in the direction of the beach, which made me very excited because I love the beach. But we didn't go on the beach. Instead we walk just next to it and went in the direction of the shops. Then halfway we stopped and sat down on a bench. After 10 minutes I suddenly started hearing bangs and saw lot's of colors in the sky.

I wasn't really scared. Most of the bangs I heard were nothing, but sometimes I heard a very loud bang and I wasn't comfortable. I decided to turn around and go back home, but Jessica wouldn't allow it. So I turned my back to it and sat there until Jessica decided to go back home.

It's my birthday today!!! I'm now already 3 years old. How fast the time goes by.

When I woke up, I got a biscuit and we went for a long walk. I just love walking in the morning. After that I got my presents. I received several plushies, 2 Rogz collars and a water toy. Jessica had already filled the toy beforehand and put it in the freezer so that it was ice cold when I got it. It's a great toy and the cooliness is something I really like (especially on hot days).

In the afternoon Shunka, Jessica and me went for a walk at Walrave. It's was a bit hot, but nothing that I can't handle because there was lot's of fresh water around to play in ^_^
Shunka was a bit scared because there were some loud noises, but that didn't stop me from running around crazy.

My meal was a BARF meal with all my favorites. I was sad when I've finished it and asked for more, but I didn't got any T-T

As a closure for the day we went for a beach walk and this also included Sammy and Katinka. There was lot's of wind, but luckily it was from behind when we got on the beach so we didn't have any sand in our face. After relaxing in the sun and playing and running after Shunka's pink mini rugby ball, we walked in the dunes to chill out.
