A summary of Boots' antics today:
This morning, helped himself to the washing up brush thingy out of the kitchen sink and was seen running around the garden with Bracken in hot pursuit.
Then, as I was busy ironing clothes for work, he cleverly delivered my little Kilmarnock Willow Tree tenderly to my hand. Thanks buddy, just what I always wanted!!
Then in between me hurriedly chucking my clothes on and taking the plant back outside, he'd nicked a cushion from the sofa and was standing proudly in the middle of my excuse for a lawn, like it was the biggest and bestest bird he'd ever had in his mouth ever!
While all this was going on, Bracken was bouncing about tigger styleee.
But, the best of all......
About an hour ago I took him and Bracken down to what's know locally as 'the glen' for a quick bedtime stroll just as it was getting dark. It's full of decorative borders and neatly trimmed lawns. It's a good place for well-behaved dogs, but not so for hooligans. I tend not to go there much. Well, Boots ears turned to cloth as soon as he spied the ornate goldfish pond, complete with water lilies and other ornate ornateness! Definitely not meant for dogs. He shot off, leapt in, landed with a 'splosh' that was loud enough to wake the dead..... and proceeded to swim round and round proud as punch. Bracken was very nearly in behind him. Little sod nearly chose to ignore me doing the trying-to-whisper-so-no-one-would-hear-me-shouting-gerroutta-the-bleddy-pond-that-dogs-aren't-allowed-in!!!! I did a stealth 360 degree scan and thought "phew, no-one saw, got away with it!" Only to turn round and see a man come towards me from nowhere, doubled over laughing, saying that was the funniest thing he'd seen in ages and that it made a change from his nutty black lab getting up to mischief! He absolutely stinks now!
Jill, your dogs are officially nutters! Rocky has taught Boots well :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:
