Just because he\u2019s been learning to do tricks in his puppy classes he now thinks we should all be watching him. I could do tricks if I wanted to. I just wouldn\u2019t stoop so low. I\u2019m not some clown in a circus. I\u2019m a serious working dog. I may not actually do a great deal of work, but it\u2019s the thought that counts. I can see that some of the tricks he\u2019s learning are ones that could be used in a working capacity, but I don\u2019t need to spend my day watching him perform. He\u2019s been learning to twirl, twist, tap and touch \u2013 that is do a little circle to the left, a little circle to the right and then lift his right paw and touch my Mistress\u2019s hand and then his left paw to her left hand. My Mistress has said she\u2019s going to skip teaching him to bring her a tissue when she sneezes, as he\u2019d be running to the tissue box every five minutes.<\/p>\n
All the plans are now finalised for Megan\u2019s trip to Switzerland next month. She is going for her final tests to be able to have puppies. She\u2019s very excited. There is just one small problem. My Mistress is now concerned that her season might start a little earlier than we were expecting and if that happens she might have to go straight to the stud dog rather than having much of a break between the two trips. I\u2019m not sure I\u2019m ready for more puppies around the house. I\u2019ve only just got over Aristotle\u2019s litter and I\u2019m definitely putting my paw down about keeping any more. It\u2019s hard work being a father figure to Aristotle I\u2019m not ready to take another youngster on just yet.<\/p>\n
