I got the camera all set up to do a video today and started it rolling. Then my Mistress said ‘What are they playing tug with?’ It turned out they were managing to pull the ‘poo bag’ through the bars and distributing the bag and contents around the pen. I had to stop filming as my Mistress didn’t want to be broadcast swearing at the puppies. By the time the situation had been sorted out the puppies were very tired from all their excitement and fell asleep. I’m hoping they might wake up and play before I shan’t be able to have the sound on. It’s always so much better with sound as it means that the viewers’ dogs are able to take a more active part in listening to the puppies and joining in with the chorus.
We have just about come to terms with now only having six puppies, although my Mistress has spent most of the day saying ‘I wonder what Alan is doing now?’ When we weighed everyone, Duke has passed the 6kg mark and my Mistress immediately wondered whether Alan was back in the lead or not. I think she needs to be gently weaned off how addictive it has all become. At least from tomorrow Megan should be able to go out for long walks again which will get my Mistress out in the fresh air. I think it will do them both good. Megan is driving everyone nuts at the moment.
Tomorrow is a big day. Dora will be packing her bags early tomorrow afternoon and then Arnie in the evening. It is going to seem very strange being down to only 4 little bundles of joy. I might even start feeling a little bit pleased that Aristotle is staying!
The video is here.

Ugh… well maybe they’re just trying to make the parting a tiny bit more bearable…..
