Aristotle is being really tiresome. He\u2019s still got this whole \u2018top dog\u2019 idea going. He is loud an brash and really not very nice about it. Gone is the gentle bear that Mum so loves to cuddle. I know it\u2019s not really his fault that he feels the need to do these things, but just at the moment we\u2019ve all had enough of it. I know being top dog is my position by right and I\u2019m not going to get into any skirmishes with Aristotle to prove a point. On the whole I prefer to stay out of the way until he remembers his place. He, on the other paw, doesn\u2019t work that way. Mum says that reluctantly she might have to concede that he can\u2019t sleep in the bedroom with us. Oddly, it is that above all else that seems to have confused him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today is an indoor kind of day. There are men in the garden sorting out a problem with the drains and it means that all the gates are open. To stop us jumping all over the men and into the drains, we\u2019re having to go out on our leads in a controlled fashion. I can see Mum\u2019s point, but that really is far less fun. On the bright side, it will at least be one job ticked off the list. We\u2019re waiting for her to get around to the gates on the drive. Once they\u2019re done then we can play in the front garden as well as the back. She is working on it, but not fast enough for our liking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, you know what a dog does on a rainy day when they\u2019re couped up indoors, don\u2019t you? We cause trouble. There are three of us, so I\u2019m guessing that\u2019s going to be quite a lot of trouble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
