Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2007 4:11 pm Post subject: Rufus in the bad books again! |
|
|
Just when I was boasting to everyone about how brilliant he has been, lol!
Rufus has just learned to lift his leg! In Pets at Home last night he had two 'accidents' while my Mum and I were chatting about buying him a reflective coat!! (he got a wee vest, but its massive, don't know what size of dog it is meant for! It doest the job though!)
I was affronted, and wanted to mop it myself, but the woman was really nice and did it!
He also barked at EVERYTHING and got into a tussle with a wee lab puppy, after me telling the owner how friendly he was! (just rough play!)
So don't believe him when he rolls over and cries on the walks because Koda or Oscar sniff him! He is still a ruffian at heart!
Is there a full moon coming up?! |

lol, Marcella, I gave him a really good brush last night, he hates it but will allow you to do it if you hold a puppy Tubo in one hand and let him gnaw on it while you groom with the other! He actually looked quite smart for at least ten minutes, and then was back to a curly scruffball again!
He has got lovely furnishings on his front legs though, was the first time I have brushed them out and seen them properly, I am quite looking forwards to seeing his new colour and his trimmed legs when he eventually goes to the groomer! |

Star has never lifted his leg to pee and he will be 1 on Saturday. Stephen says its cause he has a girls name, that's why he pee's like one _________________ Dogs are like Chocolate, you just can't have one! |

He has had his name since he was about 3 hours old and I was weighing him in our kitchen scales I needed to identify one pup from the other so when we decided to keep him his name just stuck! _________________ Dogs are like Chocolate, you just can't have one! |

Oh Fiona I remember doing that with Lizzy and Ruby but they were just called one and two, they were 7oz and had doubled in weight by the following week. I want more puppies |

The puppies where all 300g when they were born with the exception of Star who was 400g That boy liked his grub! We had 8 of them Lindy and I would do it all again in a heart beat. Could never have given them all away tho, would have broken my heart if I couldn't have kept at least one. _________________ Dogs are like Chocolate, you just can't have one! |

The one thing I have learned about a young dog is never relax.
They lure you into a false sense of maturity. I have one step forward and three back with Otto eg
Suckers, leaving me down here on my own, now I can finally chew the remote control they thought I wasn't interested in.
or
Well last week I was happy to be in my bed, but now I can't be bothered being on my own down here so I'm going to bark the place down.
Actually the two are related - more you let them out of the crate, less they want to be in it. |
