I can’t cope

Of course, always happy to chat with you @Captain24 🙂 

Oooh 15m lead sounds like fun! I got to test out an 8m one at the park the other day - I met this lovely woman who also has cavvies like my Toby and she let me borrow her retractable lead so Toby could run after her off-lead dog. He had so much fun now I want to buy a long lead!

What a brave boy Jett is! I'm guessing the beach isn't usually his happy place like it is for Pix?

I just saw the photos of Pix @Captain24 ! So cute!

[Captain24]

Thank you. @Ru-bee 

I walk them with a 5 metre retractable lead all the time. It takes some practice to get use to how to use it well. But mine are really trained on it. 

It’s the first time he will use it. Mums dog did last time we were here and Jett tried to run but his lead just wasn’t long enough. Jett hates the water! He does enjoy running on the sand though. 

How is Toby going? Fully settled in yet? 

[Captain24]

Thanks @tyme. Didn’t get any of Jett. 

[Ru-bee]

Toby's going really well @Captain24 I think he's fully settled in, but then I think about how we've only had him for 4 or 5 months and he's probably going to take longer to fully settle in. We've given in recently on our strict no dogs in the bed policy and he's extremely happy about it haha. He's just too sweet to not have in the bed, so now I share my side with him and the 2 cats which is a bit squishy!

I've gotta run, but it was lovely chatting! Hope to see more pictures of the pups on your holiday soon!

[Captain24]

That’s good he is doing well @Ru-bee. I always said no dogs on the bed too. I now have two and they have to touch me and there is one in each side. Not much room for comfort or moving! 

Thank you. It meant a lot

So when they are off leash, they are okay? @Captain24 

What's on the agenda for tomorrow?

[Captain24]

Pix is ok off the leash but Jett isn’t. I’m going to try him on a 15 metre lead tomorrow if it’s not raining. @tyme 

I don’t know what’s on anyday. I have to make the decision in the morning as to what to do, what to have for lunch, where to have lunch, what to have for dinner, whether we walk the dogs before dinner or in between dinner and dishes. 

I do need to go to the pet shop though! 

[tyme]

Fair enough. It sounds like my brain when I'm confuzzled @Captain24 

You'll never guess what I'm eating! Churros Turtles Chips.... argh. I put them away after a few. They are too addictive.

Did I tell you one of the in laws once went outside and didn't realise Ruby followed. He then came back. A while later, my sister heard barking. It was Ruby outside barking to come in... I think she had a good gallavant out in the open and decided to come home. Just goes to show that she WILL come back - eventually.

I wonder if Jett will?

I was so so so tired this arvo (because I stayed up last night), that when I came home, I dosed off for 30 mins or so! When I woke up, it was time for me to hop on the forums. Now I'm all fresh, don't know how I'll go to sleep!

How often do you go to the pet shop? Surely your dogs can't eat that much!

[Captain24]

It’s exhausting having to make every single decision. Then making sure that they are happy with that and then having to ignore the snide remarks of what we could have been doing! @tyme 

They are so good arent they! I actually have 2 packets in the pantry at home. I haven’t touched them for ages. This adhd medication has changed a lot of things. 

I’m glad that she will come home but a pretty risky way to go about it! I’m glad she made it home though. 

I don’t think Jett knows where we live. I don’t take him out very often and especially not now with so so many snakes and in my estate. The snakes are ridiculous right now and it’s not even hot yet. 

Oh.. sometimes a nap will do that! Sometimes it makes everything worse. Did you get your sticky note finished?
