Advice

I advise you never to eat a tub of liver and a carrot.

Poor me!

Liver

While TJam was at work we polished off a tub of liver (our training treats that TJam spent cooking, much to her vegan disgust) and a carrot. Then we dragged a parsnip each back to our beds and sat on them all afternoon. In case you were wondering, they did not hatch.

Rat Man

We had to get the rat man in today. TJam says we shouldn't admit that, but I say that out real friends won't judge us if we have mice or rats living in the cavity walls. Perhaps it will keep away the visitors  that invite themselves round even when we haven't invited us in ages. Ha ha ha!

Fireworks - Are We Bothered?

Today we went for a long walk with Nero and Nerospal. We got nice and tired so we wouldn't be bothered with the fireworks. Not that we are bothered anyway. Carlsberg was equally not bothered thankfully.

Scratching

Today we have heard scratching in the wall cavity. If we are optimistic, we will put out a humane mouse trap. If we are realistic, we will have to call in the rat-catcher.

Celebrity Dog School

We all went over to the Big City to do some work on Bamgee's house. When we came back we watched Celebrity Dog School, which made me and Beanz look like angels. Hooray for Celebrity Dog School. Valerie is our favourite and she looks a lot like me.

Visitor

Bamgee came home today! TJam went to meet her from the airport. She had been travelling for 52 hours and is exhausted. It is lovely to see her and we greeted her enthusiastically.

Something Afoot?

TJam has been cleaning the house all day.

Vaccinated

Poor Carlsberg had to have her vaccinations today. She was very good, but you'll be lucky if you see her in a cat carrier again any time soon.

Proud

I went to the advanced training class. I was very nervous in a foom full of dogs and I had trouble "staying". But all in all I did as I was told and TJam was very proud of me.

Progress

TJam and Beanz came home from dog training smiling and laughing today. Beanz and I have been promoted to the advanced class. It is not true that the teacher only feels sorry for us and is trying to boost our confidence.

Quiet

The kids at school shared a stomach bug with TJam so nothing much has been going on around here except sleeping...

Forgiven

Um, I don't want to speak too soon but I think TJam might have forgiven us.

Congratulations!

Happy anniversary Carlsberg! She has been with us for a whole year.

Banana Incident

Me and Chips are in the biggest trouble ever.

First Chips got into a fight.

Then there was this man walking along eating a banana. I ran over to him and jumped up to say hello.  Chips swooped in from behind and took the banana clean out of his hand! TJam was furious! She says one day she might laugh about it but for now we are being walked separately. She was so upset we didn't go to training this evening. We are grounded until the separate walking regime starts together.

Footwear

Now I have to wear a silver space boot.

Thank you VERY much.

And I have to stay on the lead.

Kitchen Hazard

Today I jumped up to have a good look on the kitchen unit and I sliced my paw on a tin that was waiting to go into the recycling.

Now I have a nasty gash and I have to keep it washed and covered. It is on the pad so TJam didn't take me to the vet. Some owner she is. I am feeling very sorry for myself.

Chimney Sweep

We got the chimney swept. 

I disgraced us by stealing the duct tape and chewing it up. The chimney sweep was very understanding. TJam was mortified.

Confused Identity

Today Carlsberg tried to come on a walk with up. She came 200m on the field until we got near the road. Then TJam decided it was too dangerous so we had to turn for home and get the cat to follow us so we could shut her back in the house.

Carlsberg, the cat who thinks she's a dog.

Cat Training

I was out on the field doing some training with TJam when a flash of black and white came at me, grabbed my leg and wouldn't let go. It was Carlsberg! She wants to be trained. She kept hiding in the bushes and then jumping out on me when I was trying to do a sit stay.
