Bei Wind und Wetter, Sommer oder Winter, 365 Tage im Jahr, Tag und Nacht fahren sie an uns vorbei, die Schiffe auf der Elbe. Man erkennt sie schon an ihrer Stimme. Es gibt viel zu laute Pötte mit Rauchschwaden, aber auch fast lautlose tief brummende Containerriesen. Mancher Reeder möchte gern von seinen Schiffen begrüßt werden. Im Nebel hört man nur vorschriftsmäßiges gedämpftes tuten. Die...
The big boss just took me on one of his 10 km runs. This is serious business. He wants to run, I want to do my thing. Sniff around, check the trash cans, catch some sticks, dig a bit, you know, dogs stuff! We always have discussions about that. In the end he wins. He is the boss. So just a quick pee, and off we go. At least that is what he wants. I do not give in that easily... In the end we had...
Lange Treppen, kurze Treppen, versteckte Treppen, steile Treppen, Treppen, Treppen, Treppen. Letztens fragte mich eine Dame: "Wie kommen sie denn zu ihrem Haus? Nur so, über die Treppen?"

Und viel mehr schleppen, als...
Sunday morning jogging is one of our rituals. The boss takes me to the doggy-beach. Great! I can sniff around and play with my palls. Not when this picture was taken though.

I found myself a nice...
Today we enjoyed the first rays of sun, after a long period of grey skies, rain and even a storm. Our dog Duvel does not mind any weather. Duvel seems to like the first hint of spring in the air though. Maybe some of his lady friends are starting to smell interesting...
Hi, I am Duvel, the dog behind twikga. My name means "little devil". They gave me that name, before they really knew me, but I think it suits me. I am an Irish Terrier and quite stubborn. I like being a publisher's dog. When I am not outside, running and playing on the beach in Hamburg, I take naps under the table of my boss, Tanja. She works very hard. I have jobs as well, like most dogs I pick...
