Sunday

Page is enjoying her walks, she wants to go and say hello to everyone she meets, two or fourlegged. Walks don't tire her out, she arrives home full of energy. At least she sleeps through the night.

A new game for Page is called wrap myself in a throw over then slither through it to the floor. The first time she did it I went to rescue her, she then got back on the chair and did the same thing again. I don't think she will have any problems with collapsible tunnels.

Page's first walk

After having the last of her vaccinations Page was allowed out for her first walk today. She had a great time, especially chasing Pilot. She arrived home, not tired but with even more energy racing around the house.
She was not frightened by anything on her walk. This is a little worrying as she has no sense of danger so we have to watch her carefully. Luckily we have a nice safe dog walking area less than ten minutes walk from our house.

Tuesday

Page had a busy day yesterday.She to have her second vaccination, she was very brave and didn't notice it. She was microchipped as well and this time gave a little squeal, I don't blame her with the size of the needle. We then went training, Page came and watched the last session sitting on my lap. She was a little quiet but it was a busy evening for her and she met lots of new dogs.

I am now looking forward to taking her for her first walk. It will be exciting for both of us.

Naughty puppy

Page visited my mother again today, she did not behave herself. Her favourite game was pulling on the runner on the kitchen floor. She also tried to chew the leads to a number of assorted electrical items and a rug. She has also attempted to empty the kitchen bin, followed by pinching a roll of green recycle bags and running out the garden with them. She also pinched my mothers necklace, luckily we got it back.

This afternoon she has been playing in the garden with the other dogs, she is  finally tired.

Her favourite game today has been pushing a large plastic celebrations container around the lounge. She loves anything that makes a noise. Empty plastic lemonade bottles have the same effect. She also has a very loud puppy bark that accompanies these games.

Another game is called helping with the laundry. Dirty clothers are pinched from the basket, shirts left to air on radiators are pulled off, and folding sheets ends up as a tuggy game.

Life with Page is great fun, but we are all exhausted. Penn is her best play mate but now Pilot has started to play a lot more with. Pilot loves chase games, not the ideal game to play in the house with Pilots long legs.

Thursday

Page now has a new trick, climbing onto the table in the lounge. She has done it twice today. She will try and climb anything. This worries me, as she will also attempt to jump off things. Luckily I have caught her just in time.

She is very toy orientated. This should make her agility training easier when we start.We are having lots of fun playing tuggie games together. She also loves her squeaky yellow phone that Jeanette gave her as a leaving present. Both Pilot and Parsley have tried to pinch it.

I will post some more photos tomorrow. I've been too busy playing with her today to down load any photos from my camera. She has been been hyperactive and hasn't slept much. When she's asleep I'm giving the other dogs lots of attention. They are being so good with her.

Tuesday or is it chewsday.

Page is chewing anything she can get her little teeth into. I am sure she thinks her name is Page No. If you think it's gone quiet, check on Page. At the moment she hasn't done any damage. I also don't want her hurting herself.

She is learning fast, she is picking up ideas from the other dogs. Panic and Penn will often sit on the top of the backrest of the sofa. Guess where I found Page yesterday.

This morning before I went out I tried to put her in her cage. The problem is Penn still likes the cage and decided that it was hers. I was kneeling on the floor trying to get Penn out and Page in. Once in the cage, Page happily settled down. Penn wasn't pleased, and sat staring at her.

Sunday

I have never known a puppy sleep so little during the day. She is so full of energy. Poor Penn, she is exhausted. Page loves playing with her.

 I am still finding it hard to take decent photos as she never stays still.Today she has started to carry a large rubber ball in her mouth. It's very heavy, I surprised when she picked it up.

A week of fun

I can't believe Page has now been with us for a whole week. She has settled in well. She is one of the naughtiest puppies we have every had. She is so adventurous. She does not sleep much during the day, but she sleeps through the night.

She spends ages playing with Penn. She  plays with Pilot, but with Pilot being so big in it's very funny to watch. Panic is now guarding all her favourite toys but hasn't tried to take anything from  Page.

Last night I made margaritas,Page, was very interested. I put my glass on the floor and Page put her head straight in it. The glasses I were using, are big thick heavy blue ones. Later that night I put glass on the floor in the middle of the room. Page circled it barking.

While Tom is out walking the other dogs we are practicing sits. She is also running along side me up and down the garden path.

Snow

It has been a busy 2 days. Page loved the snow and didn't want to come indoors. I tried to get some nice photos of her but she would not stay long enough.

While Tom has been walking the other 5, I have been teaching Page to sit. She now knows she must be sitting before she has a treat. I don't know if the word sit really means anything to her yet.

Page is proving to be an amazing little puppy. She is so quick to learn. She is not afraid of anything. She loves her toys especially tennis balls. When she is awake I spend all my time watching her. She is crazy.

She loves the snow and is refusing to come in from the garden when called.

Yesterday we took Penn to be measured. We are hoping she wil be ready to compete at the TAG show at Easter. Page came too and made lots of new friends.

She has now developed a loud bark and is being coming very vocal.  She is very adventuous and is not afraid of anything. Last night she started to play with a tennis ball, she would roll it forward and then run and pounce on it. She also loves playing tuggie games.

Nothong is safe, she has pinched amongst other things scarfs, my purse and my camera. She is a real thinker and if there is something she wants you can see her working out how to get it.

She had her first vacination today, and was very brave at the vets  Polo came too to have blood tests done becuase we think she may be diabetic. We are now wating for the results.

Page

Page arrived yesterday. She has settled in really well. On the way home she screamed for the first few miles and then settled down and slept. She has made friends with the other dogs and is playing nicely with Penn. Pilot adores her and keeps sniffing her but is a little unsure about playing.
She loves her food and told Penn off when she came too close when she was having lunch.

Last night I put her in her cage and after protesting for a few minutes slept for the rest of the night.

Penn- Thyme to Gamble

Penn is eighteen months old and has yet to compete. She is a half sister to Panic. There father is Veronica Hill's Dyson- It's a gamble.

Penn could easily be called Little Miss Sunshine. She is a very happy dog but has a very stubborn streak,

She has just mastered the weaves and did them for the first time in training this week with out any wires.

She loves cuddles and loves having a fuss made of her.

Pilot -Thyme Flies

Pilot is a three year old Welsh Sheepdog and shares the same birthday as me. She would like to make it known that she is not a lurcher and she is a girl.

Pilot is a very distinct both in looks and character.

She could be easily known as can weave, won't weave. She is a bit of a comedy act in the ring and once did the dog walk 4 times. Luckily the judge had a sense of humour.

At shows she can often be seen hanging over the fence with Penn watching everything.
