first suspicions

The giant puddles have been reduced to a few lightly marshy bits and the nice freshly-cut grass means that dogshites are relatively easy to spot at the moment. I honestly haven't taught him to attempt to repel filthy dogbeasts by yelling "go way doggie! not nice!" at them but it's nonetheless a useful skill to have acquired. I've tried hard to not shout what it comes into my mind to shout when a dog has approached when I've been out walking with/lugging the wingpiglet as I don't want him learning those words from me.
