My name is Martha. I am a nine-year-old Old English Sheepdog who lives in South Wales. This year I moved house for the first time; I no longer live my grandparents and I miss them quite a lot. I have a heart murmur and a crumbling spine so I have to take lots of tablets, which make me feel young again.

I have a Mummy who is a bit silly, an Auntie Ysabel who helps me make this site, a Cousin Sweepie who's a Pug, and, an Uncle Ray who I hope to marry one day.

I spend my days looking out of the front window watching people walk by, playing with plastic bottles, and teaching Sweepie about life. I love going down the beach and long walks when the weather's cool enough. I hate being brushed and I think I have my own unique style.

I started this blog in December 2004 but had a break from it at the end of 2006. This was because my life had changed a lot after Madge, my Pug cousin, had babies and I helped her to raise them. I didn't think I'd want to blog again but now I want to share my new grown-up life, in my new home.

Thanks to my Auntie Ysabel who made me this website and who helps me to write in it. Blogger that helps manage the site. Photobucket that hosts any additional photos posted.

I went for two walks yesterday. I was very spoilt.

The first time I went at about 11am with Sweepie. It was very hot but I didn't care; I just love walks. Two huge tractors went past. One of them nearly ran over my tail!

Then, in the evening, me and Mummy went for the Hour Walk, which is my second-favourite walk ever (the first being My Road). Even more tractors went past again. I don't know what they're all doing but they're getting on my nerves now - I am trying to enjoy my walk. I don't like having to stop every five minutes. Plus Mummy whines at me that I need to get in even further and even though I tell her I know that the tractor won't hit me she still whines. Silly Mummy.

I'm trying to make friends with Auntie Ysabel now who isn't friends with me because I said nasty things about her on the blog. I tried giving her a kiss last night and that seemed to work a little but I think she's still pouting. She'll cave in soon. I am too adorable to resist.
