For days I’ve been engaged in a serious glare off with a large brown monster when we walk across our paddock. HooMum just laughs and says it’s a cardboard box but I think it’s a cover for a CIA operation or worse! I’m on full alert pals. 😱‼️🚨. ~ Bobby 👋

The weather’s starting to warm up here, and sometimes while we’re out walking, I need to lie down and cool off for a few minutes (with my tongue out of course). Hope you’re having a great #TerrierTuesday #TongueOutTuesday ~ Bobby 👋

I don’t want to temp fate, but my leg seems to be doing very well. *touches wood* I had a very active day plus also went for a long walk (first for months cos of leg) and was still full of bounce. 🎉 I got to visit my favourite rock & check for recent messages. What a great day. ~ Bobby 👋🎉😃

Hi pals and happy Saturday. 👋 Hope your weekend is off to a great start. Our weather turned cold and rainy today but of course we still went for our walks. We saw this beautiful Australian King Parrot while we were out. They live in forests along the east coast of Aus. Very beautiful. ~ Bobby

About that Kelis song 🎵 ‘Milkshake’ 🎵 HooMum, I don’t really understand what the lyrics are trying to say. But as I found a discarded milkshake cup on our walk, could I have one please? Chocolate flavour is my preference. 😉🍫 ~ Bobby 👋

We bumped into this young mother kangaroo on our walk this morning. She knows us, so she wasn’t frightened. If you look closely you’ll see she has a little Joey in her pouch. 🥰 Very cute. ~ Bobby 👋

Hi pals 👋 I had such a fun day. The Hoos went to a cafe in a nearby town and (yay!) took me with them. It is called ‘3 little pigs’ which HM thinks is hilarious (?). I had beautiful manners when I met passing furs & Hoos AND I got a whole snossige roll (thanks HooDad). Then walk around nearby park.

Hi Pals 👋 Happy Monday. My limp is trying to come back - only sometimes (coincidentally it happens just after I zoom madly around in the backyard or play with Lucy). HooMum took a video to show to the vet - see if she wants me to come in for x-rays. As long as I don’t get house arrest … ~ Bobby

It’s been pointed out to me that it will be beneficial to me if I do longer snuggles on the couch with HooMum. I find them quite boring but am willing to try - so I brought my chew stick with me to the couch & it was much more fun (for me 😉). Am holding it on her leg while I chew. ~ Bobby 👋

Hi Pals! It’s been a very busy Saturday … I’ve been for walks, chased birds, supervised laundry, barked loudly in the backyard and kept watch for baddies. Just need to grab a nap before I head to bed for he night. Why you giggling HooMum? Are you laughing at me? Hufff! ~ Bobby *waves paw*

Hi pals and happy Thursday. 👋 We met some new kangaroos this morning … they didn’t know us so they (sensibly) hopped away when we got close. They looked to be two teenage male kangaroos, setting out on their first adventures away from their family mob. Hope you have a fun day. ~ Bobby

Hi pals and happy Tuesday morning from Australia. 👋 We’ve been for an early walk (saw a few kangaroos and sniffed a lot of smells 😁), I’ve gobbled my breakfast, chased a few Rosellas and now I’m squeaking one of my favourite toys, a bone-shaped stuffie made by @misheleneous.bsky.social ~ Bobby

Lots of outside time today pals - yay! This morning we met a different kangaroo mama with a baby. She was clever, standing by the side of the road, waiting for a car to pass before she hopped across. Yay! 🎉 Hope you have a Thursday full of fun. ~ Bobby 👋

Out and about and enjoying life. I love that I’m able to take my walks again. I’ve been checking all the central message places (light posts / large bushes etc.) for the latest gossip and leaving my special greeting 💧for local pals. Hope you have a great Wednesday pals. Luffs ya. ~ Bobby 👋

Gooood morning to you pals! 👋 I’m very happy to announce that I’ve been for a walk (🎉) this morning and bumped in to some of my kangaroo friends. I’m sure they’d missed me over the past 2 weeks. Check out her gorgeous and curious joey. Have a great Tuesday pals. 😄 ~ Bobby

Woohoo pals! 🎉🍾🥳 I just got home from the vetinhairy who gave me the ALL CLEAR. She said I’m allowed to go back to normal walks right away, so we did. 😁🎉 Check out the enormous stick I found. I am feeling so so happy. Thanks for your kind and caring support dear pals. 🙏 🙏 🙏 Luffs ya ~ Bobby 👋

Looking down the stairs, and hoping that later today I’ll have the go-ahead to zoom down them and out into the backyard, whenever I like. Then I can bark at birds & people walking past in the distance, dig in the garden (don’t read that bit HM) and get dirty. 6 hours til vet apt.🤞🐾😉 ~ Bobby 👋

Bobby lying on the floor, looking through glass balustrade panels to the stairs which represent his pathway to free access to the backyard. He’s hoping the vet will give him the go ahead this afternoon.

Hey pals - happy Saturday! 👋 It’s been a long Saturday, full of not going for walks 😤 which is exhausting. I’m on count down to my return visit to the vet (Monday PM) when I hope I’ll be given the all clear to start going for walks again. 🤞 Hope your weekend is full fun (and walks). ~ Bobby

I guess some of you have heard rumours of me dedding all my toys? I’m actually in training as a toy QA-tester … the good toys survive just fine. This turtle is one of my 4 best toys and he has survived, despite a tough life, for 10 months!!! (One flipper fell off in a tussle with HD 😱). ~ Bobby 👋

Tommy Turtle (described by the manufacturer as a tough toy) lost one of his flippers just this week, during a rough game with HooDad. He is very well loved.

For those of you who wondered recently, yes I do have eyes. Now I’ve had my haircut I’m really enjoying being able to see where I’m going too. Hope you’ve had a fun weekend, and did a few extra adventures for me while I’m in lock up. ~ Bobby 👋

Hey pals 👋 Happy Friday. I finally made it to the groomer today (she’s been unwell). 😅 Here are some before and after photos of me - I’ll let you guess which is which. Hope you have a great end to your week and a fab weekend. ~ Bobby

HooMum here: Funniest thing happened today. Bobby and I were sitting outside in the sunshine enjoying some quiet time. Bobby did an audible fart 💨, and was so surprised by the sound that he spent the next few minutes looking at his butt trying to work out where it had come from. 🤣😂😆 ~ HooMum 👋

Bobby looking confused by strange he had his nose and unexpected noises emanating from his backside. Prior to the photo being taken he had his nose pressed to his butt.

This is the face of a very bored young Airedale. I’m considering signing up for a chew-a-thon to raise money to bribe the vet so she’ll let me go out for walks immediately. 😳😵‍💫🙄 It wouldn’t be so bad if the weather was hot 🥵 but this is prime walking weather. ~ Bobby 😤

Bobby lies on the kitchen floor waiting for dinner and looking VERY bored (because he’s not allowed to go out for walks for 2 weeks).

Hi pals - hope you’re having a great week! 😃 HooMum took me to the vetinhairy yesterday cos my leg was very sore again late last week. Of course I didn’t limp at all while I was there. 😉 Any ways, vet said she doesn’t want my condition to become chronic, so I have to STOP ALL WALKS for 2 WEEKS! 😱😱😱

Hi pals & happy Saturday 👋 [Cue sad music 🎵] I have some sad news about Mr Tough … while HooMum was in the shower this morning his tummy exploded and his stuffing came out. He lasted about 1 hour of play time. RIP Mr Tough. I guess your name wasn’t well chosen by the marketing people. 😈😉 ~ Bobby

Hey pals, look what HooMum brought home for me from her day in Melbourne. Mr Tough, a toy sheep. He has thick rope inside his limbs and a squeaker in his head - very stylish and strong. Here I’m checking that his deodorant is working. 😉 Hope you have a great Friday. ~ Bobby ❤️

Bobby closely inspects Mr Tough, his new toy. Good luck Mr Tough.

Well pals, it’s been a cold, wet & windy day today - I’ve had real trouble getting HooMum out for her daily walks. Apparently she doesn’t like walking in driving rain with wind gusts up to 80 km/hour. What a wuss. 😤 I’ve had to snooze on the couch, by the fire. Life is tough huh? ~ Bobby 👋

Hi Pals 👋 I’ve been out checking on the overflow from our dam. It runs down a channel then under the nearby road and into a local creek. All good. ✅ The kangaroos will be annoyed though - they like lying where the temp creek flows, cos it’s out of the weather and always has lush grass. Que sera!

Bobby stands in front of the temporary creek formed by the overflow from the local dam. Fortunately the water is safely flowing into a creek, then subsequently into other dams and lakes in the valley.

Hey pals You know how I’ve been telling you about our recent stormy weather? Well, we got so much rain that our dam has overflowed. Woohoo! 🎉 This is a great start to spring and summer - lots of water to fight bushfires if they come to visit our valley. ~ Bobby ✋

Bobby advises that the water in the dam is up to the top of its sides. Yay!

The water in the dam is flowing over its causeway. We won’t be walking that way, along the top of the dam wall, today.

We’ve had a few stormy days in our valley recently with lots of rain. We bumped into this mob of kangaroos sheltering close to our house fence out of the worst of the wind and rain this morning. Clever huh? 🤔 Hope your week is off to a good start pals. ~ Bobby 👋 PS: The dam is full now 👍💦

I’ve taken over one of the couches in the living room. It’s very comfy, the arm is just the right height for resting my chin & I have a good line of vision to our big paddock in case baddies approach. It’s the ideal place for my between-walks naps. Hope you’re having a good day pals ~Bobby 👋

Hey @cairn2.bsky.social - my new dog blanket turned up this morning. I love it - thanks for recommendation. I immediately wanted to chew it and had made a small hole in less than 60 seconds. So HooMum says it’ll be a ‘supervised access only’ item for a while. 😤 Not happy! ~ Bobby 👋

It’s been a busy day today … I spent a lot of it in the backyard patrolling for baddies. After terrifying some magpies I found a stick and decided that I should chew it into a million pieces. Lucky I’m such a rough tough terrier huh? Have a great Friday pals. ~ Bobby 👋

Just having a confab with Crocco … I say he doesn’t really need two front legs (he he he 😈) & I should chew one off. Crocodiles can survive in the wild with a missing leg you know. HooMum says ‘Give Crocco a break’ He’s ‘resting’ up on the high bench now but I’ll get him back later. 😉 ~ Bobby 👋
