Playtime

Those of you who read last Friday's blog post will doubtless have been worrying all weekend about whether or not I found some dogs to play with after I took you on a tour of the Duthie Park flower beds. 

Friends, no need to fret any longer. The good news is that I did! 

Gail describes my play style as "enthusiastic" and "boisterous". 

It is true that when I spot a dog across on the other side of the park, I race across the grass at warp speed and jump all over them, tail wagging ferociously. 

But I would like to point out that if I realise the other dog is old, or grumpy and not in the mood for play, I do in general back away these days. (I didn't when I was younger).

Sometimes my approach forces what I believe, in the world of wrestling, is known as a submission. For some reason, Gail tends to attach my lead and drag me away if I am standing directly on top of a dog who is lying on his back. 

Oh and by the way, I do still steal other dog's balls. Why wouldn't you?

A new park playmate

Meet Roo, my handsome new park pal. 

Roo is a Kelpie/Collie cross. 

I use the term 'pal' in the loosest sense..


Gail says it's not entirely clear why Roo's human felt the need to tell Roo to "be careful with Nobby, he's much smaller than you"...
