Anvil’s Story

My Life and Times

By Anvil Age 13 years

Hello

My name is Anvil, I am now a 13 year old Black Labrador , I’ve been with Mum and Dad since I was 8 weeks old, They had a pub then and I had lot’s of friends, dogs, children and Adults.

This is My Photo

This is Me

My best day was Sunday it was always cheese and nibble morning. All the customers could not resist my soppy brown eyes and of course I knew I had to turn it on and pretend I was not looking at The CHEESE oh the (cheese) and I always got some.
But my best friend was Hercules who was a horse who lived at the end of my garden, He was great fun but we fell out when Mum & Dad found out the way to get me home was to call Hercules he always gave me away because they would bring him a carrot, took me a while to realise his tummy was bigger than our friendship.
I was named after the pub good job really because as I was growing up I disgraced my self badly mum & dad had been looking for me for hours and were really worried, But I was having a great adventure a really nice couple had lunch at the pub and had given me lots of titbits Oh I like this couple so I decided to follow them, oops bad idea thinking about it now it was a hot day and I had followed the couple for a long while, but!!! Wow oh wow when we got to there place there was a big pool lots of people swimming in it ‘YES’ move over fun Hurrah in I went yeah I am in heaven- people started to scream Oh come on I said whilst doggy paddling in the cool water “what’s the matter this is fun”. I was removed by 2 girls in lovely black and white Dresses who checked my collar and found out where I lived they took me home in a posh car but I was very wet from the pool so I had to shake off the water and the Girls kept screaming as my shaking kept covering them with water SO Much Fun adults hate shaking.
When we got home I wagged my tail because it makes Mum & Dad happy so I wagged and wagged but I could tell I was in a little bit of trouble! I heard them talking OH DEAR I had been swimming in the best accommodation in the area, film stars were helicoptered in and it cost a lot of money to stay there who knows who I swam with, I am a dog that does not ask names but I think it was George Clooney and Cheryl Cole and the cross screaming one had to be Simon Cowell but hey that’s for me to know and others to wonder.
I’ve had lots of other adventures if you would like more ask Mum, because I struggle with a pen, There’s the paint brush saga, the family fun day disaster, the day I broke my tail, My stay in hospital away from Mum & Dad, my lot’s of new friends now I live round here, My Trips out, my trouble with Squirrels’ and My famous Yellow ball.
Hope you would like more soon Anvil’s the Name nicked name “eyeore” “Hum” the tail tells it all.

Hi Again it’s Anvil
Age 6 months 3 days and 10 hours,
Today is going to be exciting Dad’s gone to the Brewery and Mum is Painting the walls in the Lobby with GRASS, She has a tray and a Brush and Lots of Sloppy Grass, So I lay watching Her to see what she is going to do with that Grass.
Oh Ok she is going to paint her walls in grass, She must be upset I’ve got so much Grass outside as she paints her walls I’m thinking umm there is some dirty grass outside that needs sorting.
So when the phone ring’s I say “YES Yes” I can take the Paint Brush and Go paint My grass so I picked up the Brush, the Bristly bit kept tickling my tummy as I ran to the dirty Grass, Got a Bit Distracted as Hercules My Horse Friend was calling So I dropped the Brush and went to see what troubles He had today. Hercules was a bit boring so I told Him I had a job to Do, So I ran and Ran round the garden Could I find the Brush or My dirty Grass there was lots of dirty grass “ where did I put it”?. So I walked back to the Lobby and Hid Behind the door, cause I could here Mum saying “ Where Did I Put That Brush” Oops I’ve done wrong again, best I stay outside and Listen, I heard her say I’ve got to get this painting finished before tonight So she went and got another Brush.

Just after she started Grassing the walls again Yeah Hey Whoopee phone goes and Mum’s off again, In I go Yeah I can Finish my Grass, Brush In Mouth, Bristles tickling my belly, off I go to the dirty grass the brush is making me laugh as it tickles so I drop it a couple of times, It’s Ok just a bit of Mud and few pebbles have stuck to my New Grass “Paint My Grass”- Yeah Thanks Mum.
Then The Whistle Dad’s Home Hurrah “I love my Dad” so I go Running Full Pelt, I Forget my Brush,” Hi Dad”, I’m Wagging it’s Me Anvil.
Then I hear Him Say That’s where your Brushes have gone- So I turn round to Look,
Where you looking Dad? I can’t See Them, Have they got legs and chasing me back to Mum.
Dad says “ wot have you been doing Anvil”? Can’t He understand that I’ve been painting my grass too, He Say’s Mum Look, Here’s your paint brush thief.
I start to woof, where is He? You’ve upset my Mum Woof – Woof. All of a sudden Mum starts to laugh and so does Dad because I am a Puppy of Little Brain for now, I didn’t know that the new grass had covered my Face, My tummy and My back and it was called PAINT.
I’m Collared Bath Time. Dad say’s it’s alright boy you’ll grow out of this naughtiness in time, But Dad it’s not naughtiness! It’s Fun – but OK you’re the Adult and Your Right I accept, but I got to have the last word IT WAS STILL FUN.
