Nice or naughty? Nobby's six month performance review


Context:

"Fox terriers are born with about four times as much original sin in them as other dogs are."
(Quote from 'Three Men in a Boat' by Jerome K Jerome)

Naughty Nobby:
  • "I don't remember Bertie ever being that chewy" (Janet, 10.7.22)
  • "That's a wild puppy you've got there" (Kirsty, 16.5.22) 
  • Remember the primula cheese on the nose incident at puppy class?
  • 'Mad half hours' can last up to three hours...
  • Does not react at all well to having beard groomed
  • Fussy eater in general, but adores sheep poo...
  • Magnetically attracted to ditches, the muddier the better
  • Still steals balls from other dogs in the park

Nice Nobby:
  • Wants to be friends with EVERYONE
  • Happy traveller - in car, bus, train and ferry
  • Loves to hike 
  • But keeps Gail in sight when off leash
  • Cheaper and more fun than a personal fitness trainer
  • Waits patiently nearby if Gail botanising or berry picking
  • Cool about being left alone in the house for a while
  • Always comfy, quiet and settled in crate at night
  • "Extrovert" personality (YAM-aunty, 14.7.22)
  • Guaranteed to provide non-stop entertainment and stimulation...
