I have been disappointed after reading that we were due to have an Indian summer to find it was relatively cool and wet here. What\u2019s wrong with Yorkshire? Why shouldn\u2019t we be as Indian as the rest of the country? I do like the sort of weather that we can play outside and have the back door open to come and go as we please. It\u2019s a pain when we have to have our paws wiped before we\u2019re allowed back in, although it does keep the kitchen floor a little cleaner.<\/p>\n
I was excited when a pack of information came from the Kennel Club the other day. I thought it really must be meant for me. I asked if I could open it and my Mistress said that was fine. It was only then that I discovered it was all the information for Discover Dogs and I\u2019m not going to that. Shadow is, so I threw the envelope at her and went off in a sulk. I know it\u2019s my own fault but it does rather rub it in to realise just what fun I\u2019ll be missing, particularly as all of Shadow\u2019s brothers are going and I haven\u2019t seen them since they were tiny. She\u2019s excited, of course. It will also be her first time staying in a hotel. I just hope she copes without me there to show her what to do.<\/p>\n
It has reached that time of year when firework displays are being arranged. It will be Shadow\u2019s first year of fireworks, although she coped with thunder storms reasonably well. I\u2019ve tried explaining to her that the best spot is on my owners\u2019 bed where you can see the sky for quite a wide area. You don\u2019t really hear too many of the bangs either and if you get scared, there\u2019s always the option of hiding under the duvet.<\/p>\n
