Puppy Walking

A plea from a over-lovable puppy!
Help me please, I have been sentenced to a crime I did commit but the punishment is too severe...
This morning as we were about to go for our puppy walk, I saw our neighbour. Now I like him and he likes me. So why did I get into trouble for going to say hello? I will just say that there isn't a road outside our house, just a rural driveway only leads to our 4 houses, so I wasn't in any danger, but I think I got into trouble because they were calling me back and I didn't go. Problem #1
We started out on our walk and we met some people, I am a very friendly, lovable, approachable, sweet & cute puppy (that's what people say!) so naturally I want to talk to everybody I meet. Can I help it if people are too tall and I have to jump up to talk to them? But this morning we met this lady who was not very nice, she liked me at first, then as I jumped up she screamed at me and told me off for being a naughty puppy. Problem #2
I ignored her and on we went, we then met a friendly person who had three dogs, that was fun as we all played together. Then Problem #3 started, I wanted to play some more and I ran back to find them totally ignoring my family calling out my name. I know, I know, I heard them, but I just wanted to play a little bit more and I couldn't find them anywhere, meanwhile my family were shouting for me and I did then turn and go back, but it was too late. They had that dreaded puppy lead out. No, they grabbed my collar, told me off and then tied me up. How can I run now?
So there I was walking on the extended lead, they are really only for little puppies, good job none of my friends saw me they would have laughed.
I keep being told I will learn how to behave when I go to school, I'm dreading this school business.
We arrived home, I sat in my puppy dog bed to eat my biscuits, I couldn't sleep I felt so unhappy. I'm not tired because I didn't have a proper walk and now I am so worried. How long will I have to walk on that awful lead? Oh I want to be so good. Help me please...............
