I\u2019ve been feeling quite a bit better in myself the last few days. I think maybe even I respond well as the thought of spring starts to come to mind. Anyway, yesterday our Mistress was expecting the plumber but needed to go out. She gave me a choice of being in her bedroom, but of course I\u2019d have heard the plumber downstairs and found it distressing, or I could go out in the car with her. I was in two minds. I had to check to wasn\u2019t just a ploy to get me to go to the vet or somewhere else I wouldn\u2019t say yes to. Anyway, she convinced me that I could stay in the car and it wasn\u2019t somewhere there would be lots of dogs around. I went with her and I have to say, I really enjoyed myself. It meant I got a change of scene, at least from the window, but still felt safe and happy at the same time. I\u2019ve asked if she can take me to other places with her as well. Although, when she take Wilma out for her play date this afternoon I\u2019m going to skip that as there will be lots of dogs around where they are going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whilst they are walking, our Mistress and Aristotle listen to audio books. To be fair she listens to them when she\u2019s walking Wilma and Shadow too, but the girls aren\u2019t so interested. She is now listening to one called The Penguin Lessons and Aristotle has come home saying he would like a penguin for a pet. He pointed out that our markings are a bit like a penguin and he thinks they might look good together. I think he\u2019s like the company of something that waddles when it walks as it would make him feel a bit better about his bad legs and the way it makes him walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
