My first ferry ride a few days ago was a success! My first ferry ride a few days ago was a success! 🚢🐶❤️ 

The sea was calm so I didn't even realize when we took off, it was smooth sailing 👍🏻 

My humans paid 30€ for my ticket on the ferry and an extra fee for the room plus 10€ for me to be allowed to access our room 🐾 Which was great because I slept like a puppy and I was more rested! 

This long trip tired me a little bit, since we change locations everyday, so humans try to book time for me to sleep during the day so I'm comfortable 🐶🥰 Otherwise I am cranky and hyper (much like a baby 😅).

One question I got a lot is how come I don't pee indoors? 💦 Human trained me since I was little and I learned to never mark indoors. I was also exposed to a lot of new environments constantly (restaurants, stores, hotels, planes etc) so I wouldn't even try to pee indoors (except if another dog peed there 🫢 in which case I'll be honest, I might do it to establish supermacy 😆🫣😅).

Would you try dog shoes? 🐶🐾 Here are some Would you try dog shoes? 🐶🐾 

Here are some questions everyone asks me: 

❓"How long did it take you to get used to the shoes?" Literally about 10 minutes (there is a video on my YouTube where I show the first time I put the shoes on), but every dog is different. My advice is: wear them at home for a few minutes at a time and make sure human rewards you with treats! 🌟✨

❓"But do they stay on?" I did zoomies in these shoes many times! I also like to scratch the ground hard with my back paws, to mark my territory. 🙄 They never fell off 🐾 They are attached with velcro that goes all around the leg.

❓"Where did you get them? And what size?" I got them from @wagwear and I wear size XS. If you want to try them too, use my code SAMI10 to get 10% off! 😍✨

Look at my tail when the little girl kisses me, a Look at my tail when the little girl kisses me,  aww! I'm often approached by little kids who want to kiss me or play with me 🐶 My human always makes sure they know I'm friendly and it's safe to pet me, because I love kids.❤️ But that's just me 🐾

So it's a good idea to teach kids to always ask the owner if they can approach a dog they don't know 👧🏼👶🏽 Not all doggos are as easy going as I am AND not all dogs like kids! 😊

Also, toddlers can be too much sometimes 😅 I've had toddlers yank on my leash, try to sit on me, hit me or pull my tail 😬 That's when my human steps in and pulls me away from the situation, because while I won't react in any way towards the little human (I'm surprisingly patient), I do look away A LOT and I yawn in an obvious way that shows I'm upset. 😣

So humans, please teach your kids to play nicely with us doggos ❤️ #westievibes

My humans got us a room and I got a very cool gift: a pet bag with treats, wipes, pee pads and poop bags! How thoughtful! 🥰

This past week I was in the Greek Islands with my This past week I was in the Greek Islands with my humans 🏝️ Did you know that cats here can be quite aggressive? 🐾😾 Not to mention they are EVERYWHERE. On the street, in restaurants (tavernas), hidden in bushes when I pee on my walks 💦 (I once almost peed on a cat's tail and I didn't even see it was there 😂🐈🐈‍⬛).

A few days ago I was attacked by a cat mom who thought I was a threat to her kitten. 🙈 I was on a leash and she came hard at me, scratched me above my nose and she even jumped up at my dad once he took me in his arms to protect me 😱😢 Then she followed us INTO the taverna at the first floor, so my humans had to take me back to the boat to avoid the cat 😣

It was scary but I'm ok! 🐶 The scratch was small and healed overnight. I was very lucky that my nose and eyes are intact 🍀❤️ Humans are now extra careful with me whenever there are cats around. They would rather hold me than risk this happening again. 🥰

Did you ever had a bad experience with a cat? 🐱

My human learned to treasure those moments because they don't happen very often 😂😂 

Are you the affectionate kind of Westie, or the Sami kind? ❤️
