Boris did not appreciate my driving on the way home (although most humans dont either) and spent the majority if the afternoon running around the garden, trying to befriend the cats and diving in the bushes!!
He has already developed a great bond with my 8 year old and is happy to go to his crate for a rest! Seems very well behaved as far as toilet trainig is concerned and has understood the 'come' command. (Alot to do with the treat in my hand me thinks!!)
Its been lovely to be greeted by Boris licks and we have fallen in love with him even more!!
Boris and his brother are meeting up for a play date this week!!

I'm not a fan of cats though I like dogs to get on with them. But the photo of the cat peeping in on sleeping Boris can melt even my heart!
Dee will love this... _________________ "Plus je vois les hommes, plus j'admire les chiens."

Good for a caption competition .. I think the cat is saying ... "Finally, someone finally took the batteries out of it"?!!! _________________ SHARONR - ADMIN

Day 7 in the Big Puppy House
0635 Boris wees in the garden
0915 Todays task is the house cleaning. Boris collects the brush. Drops it. Picks it up. Runs away. Drops it. etc etc.
1030 Washing time. Boris takes all the dirty clothes out of the basket. Olivia puts them back in. Boris runs off with Olivias sock.
1130 - Boris decides the washing is dry and proceeds to pull it off the washing line. Olivia rewashes the clothes lol
1200 The man from Asda arrives. Boris licks him all over. Boris helps bring in the bags. Boris tries to get into the bag and doesnt like it when Olivia explains that Prawn flavoured pringles are not for dogs.
1215 Boris can walk upstairs
1217 Boris cant go downstairs and whimpers till he is picked up
1220 Boris goes upstairs
1221 Boris cant go downstairs and whimpers till he is picked up.
1225 See above
1300 Olivia puts up the stairgate.
1305 boris masters going downstairs when Olivia ignores him
1310 Olivia takes down the stairgate
1400 Olivia goes to the toilet
1405 Olivia returns to crate to find one shoe, a Braztz doll and a pair of knickers
I think you get the picture!!! Boris is doing really well and starting to respond to commands. Cant teach him to sit as he always sits when he comes to me! He is really well behaved and we love him to bits.  |

I've laughed till I cried - I now have a pain in my side.
He's so lucky to have found you - ditto little Marco with Jane. You both sound wonderful homes! Dee will be so, so pleased!!! _________________ "Plus je vois les hommes, plus j'admire les chiens."

That is the funniest post, but then I haven't stopped laughing since thursday. I had a pathetic tired moment today and then stopped myself immediately thinking of Dee and gave myself a hard slap!! |
