I also like to rush up to the chicken pen and scare the eggs right out of them girls.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I used to be a town girl and a beach babe  but now I&#8217;m happy bein a tree lovin hippy chick with flowers in my hair.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I generally have quite a lot to say for myself and I have quite a chat with Mum when she gets home. I&#8217;m also a bit of a tell-tale Mum says &#8211; because I dob on the other dogs &#8211; but I just want to make sure she knows what&#8217;s going on. I&#8217;m also very musical &#8211; and I play several different squeaky toys. I do a little impromptu concert every night for Mum and Dad while they&#8217;re getting dinner ready.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Sometimes me and Maisie do a duet and now Mack joins in too. You should hear it &#8211; we are like the Partridge family &#8211; only furry. Mummy says we could be called &#8220;The Fluff Buckets&#8221; or the &#8220;Dogs-Stars&#8221; or the &#8220;Three Squeakers&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>My family also calls me Nurse Mellie because I always seem to know when any of my family aren&#8217;t well and I&#8217;m extra kind and loving to them. When any of the other dogs come home from the vets, I like to give them a thorough examination to see what the problem is, what they&#8217;ve had done and what sort of nursing care they&#8217;re going to need.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Yesterday &#8211; I told Mum Maisie&#8217;s got a sore toe and I think she needs to go and see Dr Digby at the Vet.
