Fred Basset, Puppy School and Lorries

Well I have been far to busy to keep my blog up to date the past few days. I know what you think... can't be the puppy typing because the keyboard is not built for paws. Well its still me.  I just have to tell my Dad or Jane what I want to say.

On Wednesday two exciting things happened.  In the afternoon I got to play with Fred a Basset Hound who is 16wks old.  It was great fun even though we didn't run round a lot because Fred wanted to play lying down.  He got tired very quickly.

Jane tried to get me to go to sleep afterwards but I was too excited to sleep.  Then we went to my 2nd puppy school class at Witsend.  I was sooo tired I could hardly stay awake, even though it was quite fun. I got to play 'off lead' with Maggie a black labrador and a little Jack Russell whose name wasn't Jack but Alfie.  Names are a very strange thing.  I did some walking on the lead and recalls and sits, downs and stands.  All I really wanted though was to be cuddled and go to sleep. 

Yesterday I had a quiet morning playing with Tikka and being groomed and playing what Jane calls 'training'.  I get lots of food for this so I like it.  In the afternoon I played with Betsy, who I met last Saturday.  I went to her home and we played in the garden.  Betsy is great, she showed me her digging hole and all the other fun things in the garden.  I got covered in dusty soil and Jane had to brush me when we got back to her home.  It was a small price to pay for such a good time.

Today we have been for a walk around Lutterworth.  We watched a HUGE lorry go past and it was a bit scary at first but after I had seen several more of them I realised they don't come on the pavement, so I was quite safe.  I got lots of strokes and a cuddle in a shop called Chemist.  But I didn't meet any one called Chemist.  I guess she was busy somewhere. Jane says we are going to Fosse Meadows later to meet another puppy to play with.  I am really looking forward to that.  I wonder what the puppy will be like?
