'Perfect pooch'! -NOT

Look at me sitting here looking like a 'perfect pooch'.

Unfortunately this morning I have been anything but a perfect pooch. I have done one naughty thing after another and it's not even lunch time yet.

This is what I've done:

1) On my morning walk, I spotted a big black dog that I didn't like the look of so I pulled on my lead to try and get it. That didn't work as Ann made me sit and wait until it disappeared from sight. She was cross with me. She says at my age I should walk properly all the time.

2) There were loads of little birds on the harbour beach this morning and I wanted to go chasing. Ann let me play for a while but then I ignored her when she called me to come back to her. Well, chasing is fun, so I just pretended I hadn't heard her and didn't come back until I chose to.

3) I was so tired after all my chasing that I dawdled all the way home. Ann had to drag me up the hill. She said we didn't have all day for faffing about.

4) Where we live has a little communal courtyard area with a pebbled section. I rolled on the pebbles and made them go all over the place so Ann had to sweep them back to where they should be.

5) When I got into the house I jumped up onto the sofa for a snooze. That made Ann really angry. I'm not allowed on the sofa and I'm especially not allowed on it when I'm wet and stinky.

6) Ann wrapped a towel round me and told me to sit and wait while she emptied the washing machine. I kept nudging her because I wanted her to dry me straight away.

7) A strange man came to our house to see about insulating our loft. I got shut in the kitchen but I did my fiercest barking for the whole of the time he was in the house. When Ann says 'friend' I'm supposed to stop barking. Well, I didn't like the look of him and I don't like strangers in my house. Ann says he will probably go back to his office and tell everyone that I'm a nasty, vicious dog now.

8) I asked to play with my toys and when Ann put my toy basket on the floor I emptied all my toys out and then didn't bother to play with them so Ann had to put them all away.

9) I sneaked upstairs when Ann wasn't looking 'cos I fancied having a little snooze at the top of the stairs. I'm not allowed upstairs.

10) I went mad when the postie came to the house.

So, as you can see, I've been very, very naughty this morning. Ann is now going swimming. I have to stay in my bed and contemplate my naughty behaviour. If she thinks I'm sorry for being so disobedient I'm going to be taken on a really long walk this afternoon. .....................YAY!

PS: 6.30pm Friday - Ozzy loves me?! YAY! He couldn't be with me on Valentine's Day cos his owner was doing other stuff. I am so so happy!
