Sumo wrestling, baby Berner style!

Www. The adventures of Gryff..... Well the girls are still doing their over all best to prove that they can hold their own, but under NO circumstances can they be called ladies. Despite their totally feminine  new names of Hatty and now as of today , Blossom (previously Hetty) , they have now started the ancient art of Sumo wrestling. The principles are very simple.... The first one to remove the opposition by any means fair or foul and get to the piece of cheese is the winner. As always Freya and I make  sure there is always two of everything, bowls, rusks, carrot strips, meat, rice pudding and on this occasion CHEESE.  Each puppy gets exactly the same size piece at exactly the same time, but as always one eats it faster than the other, and the battle commences.  The stance is taken, all eight paws planted firmly on the ground, heads down ready to charge. Little eyes are locked on the prize, and charge....... Squashing the cheese to a pulp in their haste to get to it. Little heads lock together and with every ounce of strength they possess, little legs sliding on the floor tiles they slip and slide about in battle. Got to say Freya has the right idea! She watched them for a few seconds, walked up to the piece of cheese AND ATE IT,   OMG their little faces were a picture. They just couldn't believe what had just happened. Just wish I had thought of it first, or even better knew how to use a camera. Then to add insult to injury she declared the milk bar closed and walked off and left them. They both sat there, looking at each other in total dis-belief and then came running to me. LIKE I CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT! I told them, share things, there's enough for everybody but no, they have to do it their way. If I didn't know better, I would say perhaps they are practising to be LADIES after all! You know what I mean guys......... Their way, or no way....... Cool runnings Gryff
