It's a dogs life!

There's no such thing as a quiet walk.....

Today I am poorly again. I was reeeeeeaally sick in the night. It was everywhere and then i was sick again this morning and my tummy has been runny too :-(. I am even off my food. Mum tried me on a little of my meat and even the smell of it turned my stomach. I don't even want a rice cake.

Mum thinks it could be that yesterday she tried me on a spoonful of different meat in with each meal. She thinks it was that and also maybe I have swallowed a bit of salt water with all my swimming.

So today has been kind of quiet (mum is raising her eyebrows again?!). Marma & Grandad popped in for lunch when they were passing on the motorway. I was VERY excited & got out of the furry beanbag to see them. I hadn't hardly moved until then.

Then this afternoon I felt brighter. So mum & I went for a walk in a new field she found (this is where the picture was taken). She said to me 'just a quiet walk Lily'. 'Stretch your legs a bit'. Well you know me......I can't do "quiet". The field was lovely & it went into another field, then another & because I was enjoying it we kept going. WelI, I got VERY excited at all the smells. I forgot all about mum. I ran off far ahead & just ignored her calling me. I got through a hole in the fence to another field and there was LOADS of yummy sheep poop. I've never had sheep poop before but I LOVED it. Mum was shouting & shouting for me to come back but I took a great big piece & ran away from her. She chased me & chased me, calling & shouting. She ran away in the other direction, waving her arms around, she tried throwing a stick, she laid down in the long grass (I normally love it when people are lying down!) then she chased me some more. She finally saw some people coming towards me and shouted GRAB THAT DOG. So I was finally caught. It was a GREAT game though and I'd eaten all the sheep poop by then.

Mum didn't look very happy. She was bright red & panting. She was wearing a jumper & waterproofs because it was raining when we started out but then the sun came out so she was boiling. She was VERY upset with me. She said my poorly tummy doesn't need more rubbish in it, but It didn't taste like rubbish to me!

I have had a little bit of fish & rice for tea and that has managed to stay down. I'm sleeping a lot today though. I hope I feel better tomorrow.

Bye for now
