Doggy musings!-the 2 week edition!

Hey everyone! it's zonta here, lots to tell you in this post, you'll understand why as i go, its been a heck of a two weeks around here! I've finally made it to the computer! i think, but can't be certain, that mum's asleep, so better make this quick, i've been warned against going on the computer, i got in big trouble last time i was caught looking at her emails! Don't know what the fuss was about though, there wasn't even anything interesting in there! Anyway, the week before this one, i did lots! On monday, we were just mostly getting ready for aftercare, for anyone who doesn't know what that is, that's when someone comes to look at me and mum walking, and tells me how great i am and how well i'm doing! On monday night, Mum did have a little chat, saying we were going to walk tomorrow, and that i had to be very good, but she always says that so i was just thinking "yeah yeah ok whatever!" on tuesday morning, it was raining, and i didn't really enjoy my morning trip to the run after my feed like i normally do, because i got all wet! soon after this, a friend of mum's came, and picked her up, and we both went to a coffee shop, i think that's what its called anyway! Mum left me in harness, and i had to lye down very quietly, and be really good, i'm supposed to be good in all coffee shops and places like that, but sometimes i get bored and chew my lead, mum hates it when i do that, but if i'm bored, what else am i meant to do like! Anyway, at this coffee shop, i had lots of people coming up to me and rubbing me and telling me how pretty i was! I loved it, and it was good they knew how pretty i was i thought! we don't get enough recognission for being pretty us guidedogs! On tuesday afternoon, thankfully the rain stopped, and we went out on what i thought was a normal walk, but found out was aftercare later on! when we got as far as a field that was on the route we were doing, all of a sudden, mum stopped and took off my harness, next thing i knew, my trainer was there, the one who had trained me to be a guidedog, i couldn't believe it! I was happy to see her, but had kind of forgotten her to tell you the truth! we went to the field, and i think she must have been trying to show mum how to do something with me, because i had a long lead for a few minutes which i always enjoy because it means i get to have a good sniff about! After that mum and this girl walked home, and when we were outside my house, i wanted to eat a bee, but wasn't aloud, its soooooo unfair! then on wednesday i had to go to this place full of music, i don't like that much either! then mum went into this tiny room, and i had to sit there while she played, guitar i think it's called, i didn't like it at first, i tryed to bark to get her to stop but she wouldn't, so eventually i decided it was just easier to settle down! thursday we went and got food, and i went to the vet for the first time, it was interesting, then i had a free run, i love those! then friday, i got to go out and see horses!
saturday, we went to this place where mum's friend lives, i think they might be a bit more than friends though, they're always hugging and stuff, i hate that! i always bark, but just get told shhh, why doesn't she understand i just don't like when she gives anyone else attention! I got to have lots of free runs in this place, it was huge, i really did feel like i had so much more energy than usual though, strange i thought! I did have a bit of a time of it down there, when we arrived, mum found out that i had chewing gum stuck to my bottom and my tale, i ended up having to go to the vet and get it taken out! I didn't mind much, always great to be swept off your feet by a big strong man i always think! Then on sunday morning, mum fed me as usual, and then we went back to bed, and i spyed a tissue in the bin, which i ate! Turns out that wasn't the best decision though, i got really sick afterwards, i learned that lesson the hard way, no more tissues for me, well, unless mum's silly enough to leave them lying about that is! then on sunday afternoon i had more free runs before i came home, and i even took a little trip to another garden, how cool was that! this meant i got to get scooped up, for the second time, this time by mum's friend! then we came home and eventually i settled down for the night and went to sleep.
Now onto this week! nothing much to tell till saturday i'm afraid, as most of my week this week has been spent indoors, because mum found out she had bought the wrong food for me! no wonder i had so much energy! i had to stop eating that one and go back on the one i was eating before, i'm ok again now thank god! but this meant i didn't get to do much going out at all this week! till yesterday that is! Me mum and her friend, paul is his name, he plays with me sometimes, he's really fun when he's not hugging mum that is! We went to this place where there were all these people, and dogs just like me! It was cool! I wanted to talk to them and ask, "do you do the same thing i do"? but i wasn't aloud! because i was wearing my harness, which means i'm working, i had to sit or lye quietly and be good, which i did after a little while, i was bored being told to sit down so figured i'd just do it without being told! It was cool though because even though i didn't get to talk to the other dogs that much, mum would give me these yummy treats for just sitting or lying there, i must do that more often i think!
Today we are just chilling out and i think mum will probably groom me today because i think we're going out tomorrow!
Now i better hurry up and get off this thing before mum wakes up!
wags and woofs and thanks for reading!
