It wouldn\u2019t have been so bad if the girls hadn\u2019t been so full of it when they came home. They did at least have the decency to bring home as much mud as possible for me to have a good sniff. I know all the reasons I was left at home. I know how hard it is when I have to sit down for a rest and no one else wants to stop. I know how difficult it is when I get overexcited and try to pull people over. I know I shouldn\u2019t run off without a care in the world and refuse to come back and I know I shouldn\u2019t get into disagreements with other dogs, however there is a difference between knowing all that in theory and putting it into practice. On the other paw, I am the perfect companion and house dog and away from those situations I can\u2019t be faulted. Except on the odd occasion I go on food raiding parties, but then no body is perfect. I will be allowed to be part of the fun when it comes to the Entlebucher Fun Day so I guess I shall meet Aida then. I couldn\u2019t be too annoyed with Shadow, it was her birthday after all.<\/p>\n<p>I was quite worried about Megan yesterday. I think she might have started to develop maternal instincts. Now I realise the first bit of what I am going to tell you doesn\u2019t sound very maternal but it\u2019s the bit after that you need to focus on. She has torn a strip of fleece off her bedding (that\u2019s the bad bit) but then yesterday she was very carefully carrying it round with her in her mouth. She was being so gentle. Shadow tried to take it from her, but for once Megan didn\u2019t want a game of tug. It made me wish she could have puppies sooner than in another year. I guess it will come round soon enough.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>There was a grand walk yesterday and I had to stay at home.
