I have come to learn the sound of a loading dishwasher, and like Pavlov's dogs come rushing over for the opportunity of a morsel. It can be a little confusing, because half the time the plates are clean. I like licking the cutlery most. 

So this weekend is an exciting one for me. I had my final vaccination last week and tomorrow will be allowed to meet other dogs. Although I am looking forward to it, I am also a little anxious. I've heard some dogs barking near my garden and I really didn't like it. What if they don't like me?
