On The Streets

This week has seen me out and about. I am meeting and greeting lots of new people on my walks around the village. Of course lots of comments on how beautiful I am and then people say 'but what is she ?' Most people don't seem to have heard of my sort before !
There again most people look at Mopps and think she is an odd looking Poodle with a funny tail and she's an Irish Water Spaniel.
I had great fun in Ampthill Park yesterday with my half sister Honey from another Gunfield litter. It was absolutely freezing and all white everywhere but we kept warm going mad together. Mum wondered if we would know each other when we met. I was a bit over the top to start with, being a week older than Honey but then Honey held her own. Am looking forward to seeing her again for some play time. (Honey is in pink and i am in red)Nice to meet an old dog that didn't mind me putting my face in its face aswell. Mopps still isn't impressed when I want to be nice !

12 Weeks Today !

Pictures: Me getting caught 'gardening' and on the skids, but I caught the ball ...

A busy week. One of the two legs has been home all week with what mum thinks is Pig Flu. It has been great as I have managed to snuggle on sofa hidden under blanket most of the time with the sick one.

Had my 2nd jab last Monday so am up for some serious socialisation as of tomorrow. Hurrah for that. I had put on stacks and weighed in at 7.28kg and mums proper vet said I looked absolutely great.

Today I had a visit from 2 men dressed in Army clothes. They smelled absolutely yummy. One talked to me a bit funny and then he showed me this furry thing, which mum said was a rabbit foot. I don't know what possessed me but I nearly ripped the man's hand off. Mum said I must not be so naughty, this man is the man who is going to teach me how to behave properly when I go out to work. He thought I was very clever after I showed him all my nose poses and sat for him and went crazy in the garden looking for this rabbit foot. The man said mum can take me next week for 5 minutes to sit and watch while he shoots. I don't think I can wait.

I have to admit that I have been quite quite naughty this week. I can manage to jump up against the work surfaces and pull anything that happens to be on the edge off the edge and onto the floor. Mum has been less than impressed with this trick. I have also managed to turn the hob on, but only once while something was on it .... burning handbag doesn't smell too sweet.

Eating Words And Other Things

Mum has been eating her words from last blog after getting 24 hours of what I had. I on the other hand have been absolutely great for a whole 5 days after having to take Pro Kolin to calm my tummy. It's miracle stuff. Mum should get a tube for herself instead of a big tube of Minstrels .... I am putting on weight and eating twice as much as I was before, no wonder I am growing fast. Obviously this gives me the added bonus of far more energy, not only to wander up the new path but to be as naughty as I can be. The word 'DOWN' has been featuring a lot, 'DOWN' from jumping up anywhere I can jump up although I have realised that jumping up to people is a big 'NO - DOWN' and after getting a few squirts in the face from a water spray I have been getting better. Today I have been helping out in the garden with some pruning and playing spot me if you can ...
