Shadow passed her Kennel Club Bronze award in their good citizen scheme. She has a lovely certificate and is very proud that she is the first of us to pass. Megan was pleased for her but sad she had missed her test because of being in season. The good news is that because Megan was doing so well they are allowing her to take her test as soon as she gets back and she can start working on her silver in the meantime. Shadow is really looking forward to doing her silver but is worried that she will miss some time when she comes into season. It\u2019s not easy being a girl. I\u2019m really starting to understand some of the problems. At least not if you plan to have a family. I guess if you can be neutered you don\u2019t have all these problems.<\/p>\n
My Mistress was having an \u2018easily distracted day\u2019 yesterday. She hadn\u2019t slept very well and wasn\u2019t completely with it. It was the sort of day we could get away with things like saying \u2018Oo look over there\u2019 when there was nothing at all and then sneaking some chews out of the packet. She doesn\u2019t often have days like that so we have to make the most of them. She was going to put the \u2018weed and feed\u2019 on the front lawn but I wasn\u2019t entirely sure it was a day she should be mixing chemicals in case she got it wrong and poured it on the plants or worse. Frankly, it was the sort of day that she got to the end and breathed a sigh of relief that she could go back to bed. She is rather better today which is of course a good thing but does mean we\u2019ll get fewer chews.<\/p>\n
