Oh it\u2019s wonderful \u2013 we\u2019re all back to walkies again. Dad is so good and giving Mum some confidence. We all need different things, but that\u2019s ok as it will mean everyone gets fit. Shadow had a little walk down to the village green. I had a bigger walk around the airfield. Aristotle said he would rather just potter in the garden but that\u2019s ok too. Shadow may not manage every day. She wore her leg brace, which gives her a lot of support, but she has not really got moving today yet. Mum was very tired as she\u2019s still quite unwell, but even she says the fresh air will do her good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As for me I was nose to the ground and sniffing everywhere. I\u2019m pretty good at staying close by even when I\u2019m off lead these days. I learnt a long time ago that if I remember to do the right things I get much more freedom than if I misbehave. Of course, from time to time every dog likes to misbehave but it doesn\u2019t pay in the long run. I only had to be on lead when we were near the road and when there were things I should leave alone \u2013 like the muck heap. I know I\u2019m not allowed to run onto the field where crops are growing, or past any hedge so I\u2019m out of sight. It keeps everyone happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u2019t know if I should tell you, but the wardrobe saga is happening again. Mum couldn\u2019t finish the job properly on her own. Now that Dad is home to help it can begin again. The problem is that before she can rebuild it correctly she needs to dismantle it all again. I am keeping out of the way. There is a risk this won\u2019t end well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
