Smile!

This is me next to our Christmas tree. You can probably tell from my 'smile' that I really didn't want my photo taken. I'm wearing my new Christmas t-shirt which came all the way from Australia. You can't see but it actually says jingle bones on the back. How cool is that?

I've heard that some dogs like to chew Christmas trees and I've even heard of naughty cats using them as a toilet. That's really disgusting isn't it? Well I think our tree looks way to pretty to chew so I'm going to leave it alone.

Merry Christmas

The Bark Bites kitchen is now closed for Christmas. Although I'll be trying out a new recipe called turkey and stuffing bites! If you'd like to try some please email me.

Have a very happy Christmas,

Love Roxy - woof woof!

Meet Bobby


This is Bobby who is a lovely little Yorkshire Terrier. He's also one of my newest customers. He's only a little pup so as you can see he's teeny tiny. He looks very naughty doesn't he? I'm still a little quite naughty but when I was a baby dog I used to get up to all kinds of tricks. I can't wait to meet Bobby!

A Sad Announcement...

I'm so sorry to have to tell you all that Louis passed away from heart failure on Tuesday 9th December. He was a very ill boy so mummy took him to see Jane, our favourite doctor at the dog hospital, and after a short stay he didn't come home. To begin with I didn't know where he was so I searched the house and garden looking for him. I was so upset I didn't know what to do with myself so I lay on the floor next to his bed. I couldn't even eat my dinner!


There are so many things I miss about Louis...biting his tail, washing his paws when he was tired, lying next to him by the radiator, going for nice walks in our smart jackets and trying to steal his dinner! He was such a gorgeous dog and one of my best friends so I'm really going to miss him. I hope you like these pictures because they're two of my favourites.


Thank you for all your kind messages

Christmas TV


I was at a Christmas party on Saturday night and we all watched the Strictly Come Dancing final. I've always been more of an X Factor fan so I didn't really know what was going on. There was also a really funny man who looked a bit like a dog presenting the show. I didn't like him much so everytime he was on the screen I growled at him to go away! You can see him in this picture.

New bark-mail address!

I've now got my very own bark-mail address so you can contact me directly. It's roxy@barkbites.co.uk and it makes me feel very important. Well I am a business-dog!

Copy-Dog


I quite like having Louis around as long as everyone knows I'm still the boss! The only problem is that he keeps copying me. If it's not my toys he's 'borrowed' to play with then it's my bed he's 'temporaily' crashed out in. Yesterday I found a really great way of staying warm when I'm relaxing during the day. My day-bed is an old pillow which I love but I sometimes need an extra blanket to cover me. Well, I was sick of waiting for my fleece blanket so I decided to just climb inside the pillow case where it was lovely and cosy. I can't believe it's taken me two years to figure this out. What was I thinking?


Here's me thinking I've got one over on Louis when I popped downstairs to get a drink and saw him wrapped in a blanket like a little baby dog! Copying me again.... although I'd like to see him climb inside a pillow case. He'd get stuck!

Louis smells!


Louis had a bath the other night because he was really stinky. I don't get very smelly because my fur is nice and short. He seemed to enjoy himself because he got a nice shampoo, a blow dry and then a relaxing brushing session. When do I get that much attention?
