Thursday 13th June 2013 - Twiglet's Funny Moments

Sorry - it's been a while since the last post.  Twiglet has settled in really well and is now actually Jumping into the lake with Elvis and Harry like a true Dock Dog!  To be honest I think this is his first experience of swimming and he thinks that that is how dogs get into the water - doesn't know any different! 
All dogs have now been banished from the sofa - a long overdue disciplinary situation - and so we have Harry sleeping in his crate, Elvis sulking on the floor in the lounge, and Twiglet asleep in the laundry basket!

At night, of course, all dogs are in crates!  Twiglet has now done his first training class at Charlie's in Soham with the other dogs who are older than a year, but who have had no training.  He went with Chris and the children and did very well. He has a lightning recall and a pretty good sit and down.  They all really enjoyed themselves so thank you Anita and Jess.
Gorgeous moment this morning.  Twiglet is allowed no breakfast as he is having his op today (no testicles by this evening!).  Elvis was scrounging for food so was sent to his crate where he proceeded to whinge.  Twiglet went over to Elvis' crate and started pawing at it, trying to release Elvis!  So sweet, but fairly concerned that at some point Elvis and Twiglet might start plotting evil deeds together!  Elvis can already open the back door from both directions and regularly lets all 3 dogs out into the garden, or back into the house.  Twiglet can climb and is clearly stealthy and cunning.  If they pool their resources........................!!!  Now getting myself prepared to leave Twiglet at the vet's.  :(   Will update with a later post!
