Dogs

On Sat my eldest came home to say she was rescuing the dog where she worked for various reasons.  My son, who adores the dog we have took to having the grumps all weekend, did not want another dog, don't see why we should have etc etc.  So Monday Grumpy went out and we had to turn out and pick him up at 11.30 he misses his lift home, comes back to meet the new dog and grump more when he learns the little chap is howling as he does not want to be left alone.  So Kate bless her slept down on the couch until 2.30 until he settled.  Monday, I warned them not to let him out without the lead until he got used to the chickens, did they listen no, the dog went full pelt into the chickens, I had a phone call saying they had lost Doris and Queenie, I thought they meant he had killed them, no, they were not to be found, two tins of sweetcorn, through two neighbours gardens and still no chcickens, eventually Doris was spotted pecking around on the front lawn and when returned to the back garden the others appeared, in the meantime to say that Grumpy had lost it was an understatement, the new dog Gus was sitting in his basket not moving and looking as if to say who me.   However as I am out all week with the soaps I came back to all his dishes sitting on the side, the pan from last night unwashed and he is on holiday!!!!!
