Christmas is here at Koob Beach. I got scampi some ear warmers and matching cat mittens and he got me a radio to listen to the local cat mews and mews-ic when we’re out. (cats can be so selfish!) I can’t wait to eat turkey with stuffing and hot roast potatoes with Christmas pudding. Can you believe Scampi wanted fish with his spuds and sprouts? Mind you he wasn’t the… Read More »Christmas day at Koob!

Happy Christmas from Sugary Hollow! We are all about to eat the feast that our fairy friends have magicked together! The other Princesses and I have decorated the table and put out the place names – we have Christmas crackers, napkin rings and beautiful candles. It looks really special! This morning, we all sat around and opened our stockings followed by the presents we had bought for each other. I… Read More »Christmas at Candy Castle

All our decorations are up and all our shopping is done – so Sushi and I decided to go ice-skating! There’s this fantastic ice rink that they’ve put up in the park and with the frost, everything felt very wintery. I had to rent two pairs of ice-skates for Sushi! At first he found it difficult as his back legs kept going one way and his front legs the other.… Read More »Iceskating Sushi!

It’s extremely cold on Koob beach with all this snow that keeps coming our way. We thought my engine wouldn’t get going, but after a few starts it came on with all the Christmas lights that I am covered in. I must look like a right spectacle driving along the beach with tinsel, baubles and flashing lights gleaming from miles and miles. Scampi hates the cold if he’s not whinging… Read More »Snow this Christmas?

Our gig in London was intense – fans were literally falling at our paws. A brilliant start to Christmas! Now, we’ve come up with totally awesome plan for Dogs of Rock! We are going to do a tour and keep you blog-readers one step ahead of the game, with an update on our progress around the country…we’re thinking of calling it “Backstage Blogging” – what d’ya think? We’ll start in… Read More »Dogs of Rock tour?

Season’s Greetings everyone! My tree is decorated with coloured lights and I’ve been baking lots of tasty mince pies for my friends! Mr Snap, the town cracker maker, asked me to help him write some festive jokes for his crackers. As we all know, crackers contain hats so I was more than happy to oblige. I put my thinking cap on and came up with this little beauty: One snowman… Read More »Cracking Christmas!

Psssssttttt….yes you – thought I would post this before Teacher Bear sees! My name is Greedy Bear and I absolutely love Christmas. I eat lots and lots of sweets – my favourite is chocolate coins! Last Christmas I had so much to eat that by the evening I felt very poorly. I still want lots of chocolate this Christmas, but perhaps I won’t eat it all in one go! I… Read More »Greedy Bear’s Blog

Ahoy me hearties! I’ve been decorating the mast with baubles and tinsel ready for Christmas. The other pirates say that it makes the ship look far too inviting but they’re not going to stop my fun! Little do they know that I am giving them all my book, Peggie Sue Can’t find the Loo.  I don’t envy Santa Claus putting their pressies in their stockings,  (I hope he doesn’t mind their smelliness!).… Read More »A Pirate’s Christmas

Hi Everyone, Despite the nippy weather, people are still coming to the beach soaking up the fresh air or walking their dogs. Harry and Netty are excited as they have agreed with Scampi and reluctantly myself to decorate me with Christmas decorations. Scampi wants to put a tree on my roof, but I have said that fairy lights, tinsel and bubals are more than enough! After all I don’t want… Read More »Christmas at Koob

Hello Sushi fans! Sushi is very excited about Christmas (and about the release of Sushi My Sausage Dog!). We have lots of fun at Christmas decorating everything. He is very useful at putting up the Christmas decorations; as if he stands on his back legs he can reach the top of the tree! He is such a clever dog. He was upset today as I had to go present shopping… Read More »Sushi’s Christmas Countdown!
