Well after a boisterous start to the day yesterday my Mistress and I had a quiet afternoon. It can\u2019t be a coincidence that the word \u2018boisterous\u2019 starts with the sound \u2018boy\u2019. The events culminated with the 12 year old trying to push the 6 year old\u2019s head into the fridge, for reasons that utterly escape me. My Mistress wasn\u2019t amused by their antics, which all began because Andy wanted a piece of cake. I was on Andy\u2019s side. I wanted a piece of cake too. On balance I\u2019d prefer to keep my head from being pushed in the fridge so I didn\u2019t bother asking. My Mistress seems to think that there are a disproportionate number of boys in this house and at times like that I can see her point. I didn\u2019t like to say it is going to be even worse when Sooty arrives.<\/p>\n
My stay at the kennels has been put back for one day. I don\u2019t have to go until Wednesday now. I\u2019m actually rather looking forward to having the opportunity to play with other dogs for the day. Much as I love my \u2018only pet\u2019 status and the perks it brings, there are days when all you really want is a good rough and tumble with another dog. I just wish there were an opportunity to have the rough and tumble and still go back to the comfort of My Mistress\u2019s bed and duvet when I\u2019ve had enough.<\/p>\n
