Wilma came back from her dog training on Wednesday and admitted how sad she was feeling. Before her class, she and our Mistress went for a walk around the park that is nearby and Wilma saw so many dogs playing and wanted to go to join in. She said she was really missing the social side of being in kennels and much as she loves our Mistress, she does like meeting other dogs too. Our Mistress tried to cheer her up by reminding her that it\u2019s Fun Day tomorrow and she\u2019ll see lots of other Entlebuchers. Wilma says she is excited about that, but she loves the variety of meeting different breeds and sizes of dog. The rest of us don\u2019t particularly get it as we aren\u2019t as sociable, but our Mistress says she\u2019s going to try to see if they can go to more different places so Wilma can meet other dogs too. Living where we do we can go for walks for days without even seeing another dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On a brighter note, she is pleased to find her best friend from puppy school, Jas the Airedale, is going to be in her class again. Jas wasn\u2019t part of this week but our Mistress says she will try to call Jas\u2019s human and see if they can arrange to get there at least 10 minutes early and have a little play together before class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It may not surprise you that in the actual lessons Wilma really did quite well and our Mistress has said as long as she practices hard there is no reason she shouldn\u2019t pass with flying colours. Her only real fault is a tendency to get bored and then have a little bark. Our Mistress has devised lots of little training games to play with her to keep her concentration going. Wilma thinks they are pretty cool as it means she gets lots more biscuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
