we were on the field as usual the night before last , Mum takes me on at 8 o'clock cos by then there arent any dogs around to distract me , and I wear my visiglo collar and we have the glo-ball so we can still play in the dark ... anyway , my recall was perfect , I stopped dead infront of Mum and gave her the ball every time for over half an hour ... then I spotted another dog (and owner) coming along the fence into the field ... and off I went , I totally ignored Mums commands to sit & the whistle and went through the fence onto the road , luckily no cars came by and the other dogs owner grabbed me and sent me back through into the field , Mum thanked him , put my lead back on and took me home
Then last night Mum put me in the garden around 10pm , then settled infront of the computer while I lay by the bed ... no-one noticed id moved until my human sister came out of her room to make a coffee around 10:30pm and saw id poo'd on the landing ... and ive started wee'ing on the carpets again too
I know i've upset Mum cos she was talking to Dad about it all last night and got upset about how bad my recall is around other dogs and now im acting like im not housetrained and my chewing everything has got worse again and what a rubbish trainer she must be :(
she even questioned getting Gypsy , she asked Dad if maybe they shouldnt just tell the farmer they couldnt have her now , lose the deposit on her and concentrate on me , but in the end decided they were still going to bring her home , even though its twice the work for Mum
I dont mean to do naughty things & Mum knows that , im just at 'that' age ... but now Mum is talking about not letting me off lead at all cos I cant be trusted & she doesnt want me to get hurt or lost ... so she says she is going to housetrain and teach me recall from scratch , just as if I was a baby puppy again
Anyway , despite me being a bad boy everyone still gives me cuddles and tells me what a pretty boy I am , so I know they all still love me :)
Mum took this photo of me the other day , posing in my Halloween 'costume' , Mum says im supposed to guard the house tonight from all the goblins and witches and ghosties , which is going to be difficult cos I dont know what a goblin or a witch or a ghostie looks like
And heres me and the Kidlets tonight
