Now I know you never thought you\u2019d hear me say this, but I was glad it was my turn to go swimming yesterday. I have concluded that all over wetness in a warm pool is definitely preferable to being made to go for a walk in the rain and cold. Yesterday was positively miserable, the only one of us whose spirits were not dampened yesterday was Shadow and, to be honest, I don\u2019t think anything much could stop her bouncing at the moment. I know my Mistress wanted her in peak condition before she goes off to mate, but there are limits. She\u2019s like a spring lamb on speed.<\/p>\n
My getting up early antics were spoiled yesterday by my Mistress inviting me to get into bed with her. I couldn\u2019t resist and it kept me comfortable for another twenty minutes before I got out and said that I really did think I needed to go out. It was 6.35 by that point so my Mistress didn\u2019t get quite so cross with me. Maybe I\u2019ll get the hang of this clock change in time for it going back the other way. Looking on the bright side that would mean she could stay in bed until 8am then! It\u2019s funny, on the lighter mornings she doesn\u2019t mind so much getting up early, so I don\u2019t suppose it will help.<\/p>\n
This weekend it is Discover Dogs in London. We do hope all the people who won tickets with us will have a wonderful time and don\u2019t forget to send us back your photos, especially if you have your picture taken with any of our friends and family at the Entlebucher Mountain Dog stand. It\u2019s a shame we aren\u2019t going, but it\u2019s a long way and it is hard to do everything. Good luck to all my Entlebucher friends who will be \u2018manning\u2019 the stall.<\/p>\n
