Ever been had? TWICE in one day!

Ok, so yesterday while we were out I made a find while they weren't watching.   Perfume of the god Vulpes - not a lot, and time was tight but it was enough to have a very quick roll in and it gave me a subtle aroma to take home and savour.  When we went to bed, Mum said my bed a "bit whiffy" and stale so it needed a wash. Luckily she didn't realise it was something fresh and on me haha! Well. This morning was a different story.  My aroma had spread round the kitchen, and as she came through the door Mum's face was not a pleased one.  

"Come on Ozzie, come upstairs, come for a cuddle"
"Yeah yeah yeah... right.. sure thing.... I'm coming!!"

A dirty trick it was ... Before I could blink I found myself covered in shampoo, having the indignity of a shower.  If you happen to smell me coming now, I do apologise for such an undogly stench.

Things then looked up.... Car trip, a good run and a paddle in a ford. Zzzzz in the car and I'm being taken into a building that smells of so many dogs, cats and who knows what plus some rather awful chemically smells.  There are nice friendly people, but I smell a rat (ha ha - like the joke?)   Mum buys me a new smelly bone - I'm more suspicious.  Finally this bloke comes to fuss me and we go into a really strange smelling room.   He puts his hands in all sorts of private places in the name of fussing me - cheek!  I knew something was up when both he and Mum were petting me...OUCH!  What the heck was that sharp thing in my shoulder?  Wasn't all bad though as he said I was a good boy who'd probably grow up and calm down "oh in about 4 years time" and gave me a biscuit. 

After that I got a big surprise.  I'd just settled down to sleep and the car stopped again.  I heard a voice I was sure I knew.... Yay it was my first human Mum with her little girl (gosh she's grown!).  Then out came my first human Dad too and he gave me lots of fusses and a bit of rough and tumble.   It was great to see them and show them what a handsome young man I have grown into.  

So, that is why I am shattered tonight.   As threatened Mum washed my bed, but she let me get on it while it was lovely and warm out of the tumble dryer...... Night all!!

Slow start to a busy day.

My humans had a boring morning, poor dears.  They both had their computers and were tap tap tapping with odd pauses for discussion.

Just when I'd given up they decided it was time to fill the bathtub and take turns to play in it.  Don't know why I'm not allowed a turn.  Dad looked bored in the water so I thought I'd give him a game and threw him my big black Kong.  Suddenly all hell broke loose .. seems my Kong had rather hurt him and he was not at all pleased.   Mum sent me to wait downstairs.  Oops.

Finally we all had a long walk... 4.25 miles they said.  We went all along the riverside and met some lovely fishermen who fussed me. On the way back one showed us a huge fish.. I'm sure he said it was  called God. It smelled funny and rather intriguing but I was only lowed a quick sniff.  He said it was going home with him for tea and they all laughed.  Very strange, never will understand humans.


After the walk we visited Pat and Bo.  I got my second wind and we played in the garden.   The humans were making very loud buzzing noises in the garage. Mum, Dad and I then went home.  I went off for a kip and they went into the caravan. .they said they were doing a repair with some wood they'd cut at Pat's.

Now I've had tea, slept all evening and am having a cuddle with Mum before settling down for the night. :)
