house guest

We have a little guest at our house at the moment. Our friends' dog, Bobby, is staying with us and the two dogs are having quite some fun together. He is a cute little fellow and feels right at home, occupying the comfy chair in our living room or the sofa on the terrace outside. Apparently, the two like each other, but they are also watching each other jealously for attention (and food, of course ;).

dog on top

Yesterday we took the dog with us and climbed Kgale Hill, overlooking Gaborone.
She went up with us over all the rocks and through the herd of cows without any problems, and I was really proud.
Only the last bit was difficult, but Björn decided to simply carry her over the large stones so that we could all be on the top together and enjoy the view.

who let the dog in

Some failed attempts of trying to take a picture of the dog and me.
She somehow thought it was playtime and started jumping up and down.
Not helpful.
The short session ended with a frustrated dog that seems to say:
'Just leave me alone, I am tired of having my picture taken'
Ah well, that's life over here ;)

Dog: Check!

Yes, we (finally) got a dog. Last Sunday we went to the shelter "just to have a look" and came home with a sweet dog that has since been staying with us. She is getting more confident and curious about her new home and owners by the day, so it's been fun having her around!
