Hello everyone my name is Tulula-Belle and I love my Granny and Grand-dad more than anything else in the world. I used to live with my Mummy and Daddy and lots of other cocker spaniels, but now I’m lucky enough to have four humans all to myself.
I moved in with mummy and daddy when I was just a tiny puppy, I really shouldn’t have left my dog mummy so soon but I when I arrived at my new home I found I had a new big sister called Molly-Jo and she had a litter of puppies that were just four weeks younger than me. I joined Molly-jo’s litter of puppies and Molly was nice enough to let me have the odd drink of milk and I grew nice and strong. I was very jealous of Molly’s puppies though because they had long swishy tails and I didn’t I was always getting told off for trying to pull them around the kitchen by their tails. They didn't mind so much but Mummy didn't like to see me doing it.

When they all left to go to their new homes Molly-Jo and I became really good friends. I also had a big bruvver called Winston. Mummy told me he was a DobeXRottie……but he was never cross with me so I don’t know what Mummy was talking about. I loved Winston he could run really fast and he taught me all the good places to hunt for rabbits and things in the forest.
When I was still quite little we all moved house and it was really good coz the new house had a great big garden and lots of fun places to walk. When I had grown up Molly-Jo showed me how to be a good Mummy not that I needed much help as I was told by everyone what a natural mummy I was and how lovely all my babies were. I even helped Molly with her next litter. And when Gracie-Lou (or Smellie-Poo as me and Molly called her) moved in. Winston, Molly and I looked after her and taught her how to be a good girl. Not long after another boy arrived in the house. I don’t really know why mummy thought we needed another bruvver??? Winston was more bruvver than any girl could want. Diggory was really naughty and always doing things wrong although he rarely got told off as Mummy thought he was too cute???? He’s not as cute as me!!!!!
Daddy calls me his little golden Angel and he’s right I’ve always been a really good girl, just because the others follow me rabbit hunting and get lost on their way back to mummy it’s not my fault, they should run faster and keep up with me.
I got really poorly just before my fourth birthday and had to have a big visit to the vets I stayed there a long time and I missed Mummy and Daddy a lot. When I came home Mummy took lots of time of work to look after me. But I still felt really poorly when the lady at mummy’s work said she couldn’t stay at home any more. So I went to stay with Grandma and Grand-dad for a few weeks. Mummy said they would be able to look after me all day as they didn’t have any horrible work lady’s to tell them what to do.
So I spent four weeks laying in the sunshine watching Grand-dad play with his garden I even helped him with some digging and found I really liked the carroty things that Uncle John grows at the end of the garden. When I moved back home Grand-dad missed me so much I used to try and get in their car to go home with them every time they visited. So mummy said that I could go back for another holiday. When mummy and Daddy said they were moving to the Ilse of Wight Mummy told Grandma that I wouldn't be able to visit anymore as it would be too far for me to travel. I moved back home to live with Mummy and Dadd and all the other girls. Grand-dad missed me so much, that the next time they came to visit us,  he and Mummy had a long talk. That night I went home with Grandma and Grand-dad and now I live with them all the time.
 So I spend my days relaxing with Grand-dad we read the newspaper every morning and eat bacon sandwiches, then I go for loads of walks in the country-side with Grandma, she’s great coz I’m allowed to sleep on her bed and she lets me chase all the rabbits I want. I still Mummy from time to time when she comes to visit she always brings Molly and Gracie with her and sometimes Diggory comes to stay at Grandmas and shares my bed with me. I'm always pleased to see them all and show them where Grandma and I go for our walks, but it's nice when Mummy takes them home and I have my house, basket and grandparents to myself again. I'm happy here and I know that even though Mummy and Daddy miss me loads they are ok about me looking after Grandma and Grand-dad coz it makes me happy.
I love my Grandma and Grand-dad. xxxxx
