I’ve been with my new owners, Ted and family, for ten days
now and have settled in well. They’ve never had a dog before so it’s
been up to me to teach them what to do. The first three or four days
were pretty hectic but things have settled down into a nice routine now
though they still look tired. I miss my mum and dad terribly, particularly
on the first couple of nights, but now I mainly sleep through till about
6.30. If I do wake ant night someone comes to sit with me and I soon
nod off again. Their garden is good. I thought it was full of food
on storks to begin with but I get told off if I try things.
The latest adventure is going for walks. My little legs get tired
quickly. I wish my owners had read that page in the book before and
not after they took me out. I love meeting my new friends in the
park, both human and canine, and loads of people know my name already.
My owners have lived here for 25 years and never spoken to these people
before – very strange. I’ve a great trick when I’ve had enough.
I lie on the ground with my legs splayed out. It’s like I’ve been
glued to the floor and there is no shifting me. Let’s hope they don’t
read the page in the book on how to solve that little problem for a while.
I’m told I’m being taken to Puppy Training Class starting next week.
On one hand I’m looking forward to it, meeting new friends, but I somehow
feel I may not get my own way as easily from there on in. I’ll let
you know how it goes.
A smashing border collie pup called Shadow is therefore my companion
in the day time and the centre of attention and conversations in the evenings.
His parent’s are big on agility training and his grandfather was Llangwm
Bob, World Sheepdog champion; a lot for a little ball of fur to live up
to. He’s looking forward to climbing some mountains when he gets
bigger. He loves his walks and play but is incredibly greedy and snaffles
continuously. Given that we have just found a condom in his poo, it looks
like he may be training himself to be an international drug smuggler rather
than a sheepdog.
