Well i arrived safely in my new home. And there's not much to report except i think i spent most of my time sniffing around getting used to my surroundings. My Dad showed me were i was going to sleep.
When i arrived home there where two cats waiting for me Millie & Oscar as well as two rats Frankie & Deano, they where supposed to be named after Frank Sinatra & Dean Martin of the Rat Pack but realised later they where both female but the names stuck with them. An easy mistake for the humans to make i suppose, i would of realised straight away though but therefore i am a dog but not an iams dog i suppose we must be special because if you spell Dog backwards you get God & you can't get much higher than that, i don't know who i was named after but Queen of Sheba sounds good.
I soon learned to get on with the cats, after a few corrections from Mum & Dad. Oscar was a bit nervous i don't think it was just me he nervous of he was just nervous in general Mum & Dad think he must of been abused as a kitten. And it took my Dad about six months or more to win him round he was a right Mummy's boy though i think she had a bit of a soft spot for him. I used to like chasing him though not in a nasty but because it was fun & i thought it was a game. Looking back it probably wasn't the smartest thing I've ever done & didn't do his confidence any good, Millie was different & just plain hard faced she just stood her ground & wouldn't move for me & eventually had enough & chased me.
I think Oscar did like me in his own little way though & the day before Mum & Dad took him to the vet to be PTS he came up to me & rubbed my nose with his i think he new his time was up & wanted to leave this life on good terms by saying there's no hard feelings & we're friends. I miss him now he's gone the house is a lot quieter & than after six months they get another cat called Cody who's a right terror & into everything, he's even taken to sleeping in my bed how's that for cheek.
You can see Millie & Oscar on the Rainbow Bridge page if you haven't been there already.
When i was young they kept taking me outside all the time for my toileting needs & to get me used to where i was supposed to go. I had a few little accidents during the night but the puppy training pads they put down absorbed most of that. I slept quite good on my first night & didn't make much noise, Mum did give me a cuddly toy to cuddle up to though & some toys. I soon got the hang of the toileting & started to go to the back door to be let out.
As i got a little older & started teething they used to provide me with chews & a Kong to keep me happy. I have the classic Kong which are really durable. Which was a good idea because it stoped me from becoming bored & chewing the furniture.
After my vaccinations were all done & i could start going out & mixing with other dogs, my Mum & Dad enrolled me in Puppy School to get me socialised with other dogs & humans & do some basic training. Which was held at our local vets but are situated all over the country i think. And then i started going to training classes at Maghull & District Dog Training Society to work towards my Kennnel club Puppy foundation, Bronze, Silver & Gold award. I passed my Puppy Foundation, Bronze & Silver award at the first time of asking.
