Harri the Welsh Terrier's Diary

Mum lit the fire for me tonight - it was lush.

I wanted to get really really close to the heat but she was ever so mean. I'm not allowed to go past the fender

 

That darn cat has been fighting and is wearing the cone of shame!

He looks really miserable. Mum's been tempting him with MY chicken treats though and MY tuna cake so he'll take his medicine . I hope she has more for me...

 

I've been at Grandma's for a few days! It's been lush. This morning I got to play on the beach with a lot of other Welsh Terriers. It was enormous fun.


I was in trouble again this afternoon though.

After the play on the beach we went to a pub for lunch. I got to share the roast meat . Grandma decided to save a big slice of hers to take home. I was sitting next to her in the car and that meat smelled so delicious I couldn't help but sneak it out of her handbag when she wasn't looking. She wasn't very pleased with me

I was in even more trouble later......Grandma has this thing she calls a teevee. We don't have one at home so I'm not used to it. I was having a little nap after my busy morning when the teevee made a strange loud noise. I was so startled that I let out an enormous woof. Everyone jumped and Grandma jumped so much her cup of tea went everywhere . Luckily everyone found it very funny but I was so embarrassed.

 

Mum says I'm a little toad and up for adoption if she can find anyone who will have me

 

Do you want me? She is really mad at me this time I think.

I didn't think she'd be worried when I ran off this morning after a wonderful smell. She says she had to crawl under a barbed wire fence and through a huge bramble patch to get on to the golf course after me. Even then it took her half an hour to find me and I was still so busy following the smell I ignored all her calls and whistles. I didn't even want the tin of yummy treats. She only caught me with a flying rugby tackle when I doubled back to follow a new trail.

 

Mum says she didn't think of it like that - she may be going to let me stay!

I know Dad still loves me - he made me a futon base for my bed so it isn't directly on the cold floor. I've been so warm and cosy the last two nights.

Just in case though I'm busy making friends. The nice lady in the pet shop offered me a treat. I was very polite, I sat nicely and offered my paw. She just melted, putty in my paws. I got 3 treats instead of the official 1! I'm so glad Mum taught me that little trick. No human can resist me when I do it!

 

I'm a bit nervous today. Mum says I'm doing my bronze Kennel Club Good Citizen award this evening....

She says I just have to listen to her and do as I'm told - I'm not very good at that!

 

I PASSED!!!!

I'm a Bronze dog! I'm not sure if it makes any difference though?
