We sure had fun this morning. Poppy went to work and Mamaw pulled her car out of the garage. She started sweeping the leaves and I chased them! We had lots of fun and just took our time so we could enjoy the exercise we were both getting. Actually, when we were done I was tired.

Poppy gave Mamaw a call and needed her to bring something to him at work so she got all cleaned up and out the door she went. I don’t really mind my kennel—it’s quite comfortable. She was gone for I thought a long time. But when she came home she had a new toy for me and a yummy pork tasting chew bone. I just settled down and enjoyed that for most of the afternoon.

It was good that I was entertained because I hear the lawnmower and leaf blower outside our house most of the afternoon. I don’t want to go out to potty; let alone to go for a walk!

I knew when she put the Bark Buster correction collar on me that we were going for a walk. It was pretty cool out there and my nose was going crazy—I just followed the nose wherever it went. Mamaw got a little upset with me because I wasn’t paying attention but I just couldn’t help it. She decided we would cut through the inner walk area to see what it was like there (she really thought I would pay better attention to the walk). My nose just kept right on dictating to me where and what I would do. I think we were both relieved when we got back to the house. I refused to let her put my regular collar on for some time cause I was upset with her. Oh well, this too shall pass.
