I am always amazed at Ninja’s energy. Usually he holds back his energy… people chuckled at us, when we do bike-jöring. While some dogs start off like crazy, Ninja starts rather normal in his speed. But after 10km the other dogs are dead tired and Ninja is still happy in his „jog“… Especially the dog in the background pulls like crazy… But after 25km she was out of energy and Ninja was still going good 😂😂
.
Ninja used to be afraid of heights… Standing on a bench in the forest left him shaking in fear…
.
I taught him to put his forepaws on the bench and rewarded him with treats. Over time he became more and more confident, jumped over benches and barriers in the woods… and started climbing… at times my heart skips a few jumps when he fearlessly approaches a drop or climbs a rock… But it is nice to see how he changed by giving him confidence 😊
.
Just look at the energy and focus in this picture… The height… the log is huge… even Ninja looks tiny next to it… and Ninja is not a small dog.

It has been a wonderful sunny, springtime weekend. We met our friends @kaihu_und_hadez and @dogs.media who visited us the third time already.
.
The past weeks were very tense for me as many important decisions about my life are being made without a lot of control from my side.
As teased already I have waited for an diagnose for Asperger for a good 14 months now and had the major appointment at an designated psychiatrist for autism in adults.
When I was young, autism had a stigmata and even though I grew up in a boarding school and had been in the army no one noticed it, or tended to overlook this on purpose.
.
I still have to wait 2-5 weeks for the proper paperwork, but have been diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome. I cannot express how much of an relief it is to finally have certainty 😊
.
I wonder how my life would have been if I had been properly diagnosed as a kid… but then… I like my life, with all it’s quirks 😊 I have Ninja 🐺 ❤️ amazing friends 👥 who were always there for me – despite the difficulties. Thank You all 😊😊

Today a cut from winter to spring. Outside it is getting warm, the snow has vanished and left us puddles of mud… The birds are tweeting, insects are starting to show up again, tiny little fishes show up in the pool now that the ice has melted, We decided to eat outside again and Hade changed his coat (and looks so skinny…)
.
It is safe to assume that spring is in the air 😊
It took me a few hours to get back to editing normal pictures again, but I am glad… Ninja does not only look amazing in the snow, but also nice at the Riverside in Budenheim.
.
It is one of my favorite spots. A little stone dam keeps water in a beautiful and wild looking side arm of the river as a refugee for the animals. Needless to say that I unleash Ninja here only to take pictures. Especially now… In a month all dogs need to be leashed till end of July in Germany.
.
Also I wanted to thank all of you for your continual support and interest in our stories and adventures. I was – secretly – hoping we’d have success but I never believed that we would reach 200 000 people. Thank You very much ❤️

Thank You very much for Your Birthday wishes ❤️ I do really appreciate them.
.
I had a nice quiet day… exactly as I enjoy it 😋 I liked to do another bike-jöring session with the dogs during sunset. What a beautiful evening it has been, maybe it is still visible in the stories as you read this 😊
.
In the evening I got a very nice dinner ( I love green pepper sauce 🤤 ) and we played some games 😊
.
I am very proud about Ninja’s performance during the past 2 bike-jörings… So I gave him some extra cuddles,attention and rewards 🤗🐺❤️
Ninja loves praise a lot and it is the best way to motivate Ninja. I love his glance in his moments… It is so pure, happy and loves these moments.
If You look at this picture you can see that he loves the moment… and is really happy 😊😊

Today is my birthday, not Ninja’s who has his birthday in November.
.
Thank You for all the happy Valentine’s Greetings for Ninja… I did actually read them to him 😊
.
We just returned from shopping and I got a new pair of shoes. I wear them out quickly, so we got really good ones and I hope that they will last for a few months 😊
.
Wish you happy day 😊

Thank You all for Your support ❤️

I grew up in different times. Everything was supposed to be normal and or it was swept under the carpet.
I wonder what I could have achieved if I was diagnosed early and could have gotten the support you can get nowadays.
The intention of my last post was not to get pitied, I know I am different. While it is in many ways a burden it is even more a strength and I would not want to give it up to be „normal“.
Over the years I learnt to cope with things, read books on body language, facial expressions and learned to make small talk. I learnt to adapt and not to standout too much. Of course I still find situations, where I am absolutely puzzled what is going on, or do not know how to continue a talk/chat…
Which is why I like to be open about this, so people understand it is nothing personal and may be able to better cope with things.
.
Many of you were open on how the are affected by their quirks in the comments of the last post. Thank You for that, It is very interesting to read and to realize that there are others out there who struggle with things. To those I’ll dedicate today’s post ❤️ You are not alone.
.
We have been bike-jöring with Ninja and the rest of the pack along the riverside. I made a video of it and will cut it together in the next days.
As usual the only one who dis not have enough after 10km was Frank 🤣 The dogs were tired 😴
Today it is storming again, gusts of 130km/h ( 80 mph ) sweep around the 🏠 and I prefer to stay inside.
.
Thank You again for all Your support, I really appreciate this ❤️❤️

Those of you who follow me for some time know that I prefer to be around animals than around people…
The social interaction simply stresses me out and I need a few days to gather myself. While I enjoy meeting good friends, even that stresses me out and I need time for myself.
It is really difficult for me to initiate contact, even when it is like calling for medical health. This nearly cost my life last summer ^^
Two years ago, several different sources pointed out that this might point to autism. While this sounds bad, it was actually a revelation that explained so many of my quirks. But or course screening tests on the internet are only an additional sign it does not replace a diagnosis.
It took me a year to get an appointment for diagnose, which is what I had this week.
To me it is not a disability, I am very smart – in some areas – and often to me it is as the normal people are the ones with the disability as I can see obstacles and problems before most others.
While I never understood why I was like this I understood that I was different even as a little kid. Anything I set my focus on I was able to gather any piece of information and quickly excel others…
My best friend told me once that he’d be a millionaire if he was as smart as me… But this strength comes with the afore mentioned weaknesses.
You wonder what I work, how I can have so much time for dogs… The truth is I can’t work. The absence the last week… I had this for 8 years, drawn back in my room, not exciting the house in daylight… No contact to family, partner, friends,… for 8 years…
That is why I can’t work, this is why I have time for this and why you should not be jealous to my life.
In 2 weeks I will have another appointment for a second diagnosis talk… I have an idea what it will lead to, but I will wait for confirmation.
.
My tower of strength is Ninia who is always there for me and of course last but not least Frank from @kaihu_und_hadez Thank You both for being there for me ❤️

What is a Tongue out Tuesday? 🐺👅
.
Tomorrow is a very important day for me, I have waited 14 months to get an appointment. This will be a pre-talk for the upcoming interview.
Ninja does notice my nervousness and is there for me. I think it is really difficult for Ninja, when I separate from the others as dogs a very social, they like to be together and watch each other’s back. With each of Rojas barks I can sense that he wants to dash over to see what is going on. He runs to check when I encourage him but he instantly returns to my side, over being with his canine friends.
With all his beauty, this is what I love most about Ninja… He is always there for me.
.
When I am sick with fever and have the shakes he comes to me under the blanket, which must be insanely warm for him, and keeps me warm… He won’t move and just wait it out ❤️
.
I hope that in 2 weeks the interview will give me clarity. It is nothing bad, just an explanation why I am as I am. I will go into detail then.
I will save Ninja the long ride and have him stay with my friends. I miss him already. It is weird to say, but I know it will be tough for hin, when I leave at the evening… He always wants to be with me.
I am considering driving directly to Nordrhein-Westfalen ( a state in Germany ) and nap a few hours before the interview in the car… Which would be really not idealfor Ninja. The alternative would be to get up at like 4:00 and drive then… But I will only be dead tired then 😂
Tomorrow at this time I will feel so much better ❤️
If You want to, you can cross fingers and wish us luck. I read all comments and my silence ATM is no ill will, it is just so much to process for me at the moment. You’ll son learn why.
.
Wish you a happy day 😋

I like his happy face, but I am absolutely in love with his serious face.
.
Add some snow… throw some goodies into the snow, so the nose will get covered in snow and you have a real nice picture.
.
My good old Sony camera is showing more and more signs of old age… the shutter got stuck a few times, especially when it is cold and I also have problems with focus…
.
I am experienced using the camera, but maybe, after 240 000 pictures taken it is time to get a new camera.
.
Would like to get a new Sony… Love the A7III and am really curious about the Pet Eye focus of the a6400. Does anyone have experience with Sony?
I do think all camera manufacturers make great cameras… I just like them small and lightweight…
My Sony a6000 and the SEL50F18, which I use for 95% of the pictures here weigh less than 700 grams ( 2 pounds) and are this convenient to carry with me whenever I leave the house.

The snow of the past days appears to be melting as quickly as it came. We wanted to make a snowy hike, so we decided to get into the hills where we found some deep snow 🌨️
.
It was really lovely to leave the muddy Rhine-Valley for the hills. As we were alone up there, I left him off leash. Ninja loved to dash around. He was dashing back and forth and probably covered 5 times the distance we did… He was sooooo happy… You can see it in the picture ❤️
.
So happy that we decided to hike there…
