Puppy Walking

I have a question, why is it when we are out and meet friends everyone thinks I'm such a cute puppy & so sweet, but at home they call me big trouble?

Today they asked me why do I spend every waking moment looking for mischief? Apparently every time I walk through a room I cannot help but look for something to take and play with. It's true I know I do.

But you know what's it's like, you pass the waste paper bin, any puppy with a decent nose would sniff in there, instinct. On the couch could be crumbs. Always be on the alert I say to myself, people become lazy, I gain so many items, not all eatable though!

And I'm growing, they don't seem to realise how much higher I can reach now.

This week they have been having a real go at me for jumping up, but I love to show how tall I am. Who will stop first, their nagging me or will I have to stop, no, never.

Had a lot of fun out on our walk today, now that they let me off that intolerable puppy lead for a little while I get the chance to run and battle the big black dog for sticks. She's a bit mean though, never wants to give up a stick, so I usually bite her leg!

Our walk today was further away which meant a longer car journey, boring, but I play this fun game and stare at the cars behind us. Everyone is a sucker for a puppy, funny to see how many smile at me, some even wave, oh yes as if I could wave back. Gosh if I could how many car accidents would that cause!

We arrived home and the mailman had delivered late, so it was such fun as we all tried to pick up the letters first, but I got one and raced fast for the garden, no, they hadn't opened the door yet, okay so they won that round!

I've been bored this afternoon, some days I manage to get hold of all sorts of things, but today, not much. No food around, no magazines to chew, not even a remote control box. I have my toys but that's not exciting enough for me. I'm a living breathing healthy puppy, I have to find something to do. So I took a nap but all that did was gave me more energy. I played in the garden, but there's not much left out there to play with.

Came in and my luck was in, someone had got out the sewing box. It was quiet and I had a poke around, found a plastic bag full of stringy things on round wheely things. Gosh they unwind well and all those colors very pretty if I do say it myself. I took my find to the garden, hadn't been out there 2 seconds when the usual scream came from the house. Ooops, caught again.

So here I am with very little to report, hopefully normal service will be restored tomorrow. Someone said it is the weekend, I love the weekend, the house is full of people and we all know how stupid people can be. See you tomorrow.
