Uninvited guest

When I relocated last winter, one morning I had a wonderful surprise…

incredible, right? he was just in front of our door, in our wood nearby the house! we could see him from our windows… and we aren’t living exactly in the mountains, so that was really surprising. Unfortunately now we have made a fence all around the house perimeter so it’s unlikely we will ever see such beautiful animals so close…

the pechinese dog

The pechinese is a very funny breed of dogs. Small but able to bark loudly, they will entertain your family. They’re usually not aggressive so are perfect for kids. I have one called “Nick, pictured in the photo above. The only real problem is when they sleep: they snore very loudly, almost more than a man! But is enough not let them enter your bedroom!

Dominant dwarf rabbit

The photo above shows again my 2 dwarf rabbits, when they were very young. You can clearly see one on top of the other, in a typical dominant position! we thought that getting 2 rabbit was better instead of only 1, but was a mistake, because the dominant one progressively started to attack the other, until we were forced to separate them.

Anyway the picture I took is quite funny in my opinion, so that’s why I posted it here

A furry ball

The picture above is of my dwarf rabbit, lionhead race, that I had some years ago. Unfortunately now she passed to better life, but I remember all the great moments I spent with her. She always had funny poses, like the one pictured above, and in general was lovely and cute. Still,I wouldn’t recommend you get a dwarf rabbit (or more) unless you live in a house with a garden, or you can dedicate one entire room to them.

Why? because they like to eat everything they can find! they like to crunch wood (imagine all the doors,cabinets, desks, etc) but also the power cables (surprisingly they don’t remain killed but they can cut the power off of your house!).

So as you can see, isn’t an easy task to have one of those furry creatures around the house. Still if you live in a good place, they could be a pleasant addition to your pet friends

My holidays in Bizau – Part III

Another interesting place we had the pleasure to visit nearby Bizau is a very high and spectacular waterfall near the town of Mellau. Funny thing is, we spotted it by pure chance while we were driving in the road that passes nearby (picture below).

So we decided to park the car in a small side-road, nearby a group of houses that are just in front of the waterfall. It isn’t a big one (or to say it more correctly, doesn’t have a high water flux) but is very tall as you can see from the pictures.

In the picture below you can spot the small head of my dog Artù that, as always, went forward us to explore the place first. Of course it is just a small place, not crowded or famous at all, but was a pleasant discovery nonetheless. Instead I could appreciate it even more, it was like we were the first men to explore that place, to discover a small, hidden gem in the deep of the wonderful and green austrian woods
