This week I’ve been doing a lot of ‘Look!’ Mom and Dad have been treating me every time I look into their eyes. It’s been OK most of the time but when I’m out and about they try to distract me with ‘Look!’ It’s so annoying. I’m straining to watch a rabbit or a squirrel and they keep yelling ‘Look!’ and wafting treats under my snout. All I can think of is that I AM looking. I’m looking at the rabbit and they’re getting in my way!!

We’ve also been doing lots of leash work. We’ve been to the park a few times with the fifty foot leash. Mom and Dad have been calling me back and forth it’s been great fun. Also I’ve been following them when they have treats in hand and getting lots of snacks. 

Yesterday Dad had the other end of the leash around his chest and then zipped up his jacket. I went running off at full speed and when I reached 50 ft I was going so fast that the jerk ripped Dad’s coat. He said he was thinking of getting a new one anyway. 

Talking of treats, I’ve had so many this week it’s been great. Right up to yesterday when Dad weighed me. After that there was a lot of talk about cutting back. Cutting back food. Cutting back treats. Cutting back … I’ve been the same weight since I arrived in my forever home until this week. And this week I’ve put on .. well I won’t say how much as you never ask a lady her age or weight.
