A note from the dog himself.
September has been a quieter month. After August's camping adventures, there have been no beach trips. And, most concerningly, no ice cream. I have made a note of this.
🐾 Walks at a Sensible Hour
I'm still getting my walks every day, but the cooler weather means we've finally retired the crack-of-dawn starts. A walk at a sensible time, without the heat? This is an arrangement I can support.
We haven't been to the beach, which means Albus hasn't had a chance to aggravate the seagulls. The seagulls, at least, have had a peaceful September.
🍽️ The Food Theft
Albus has, of course, found other ways to cause trouble. Last Sunday, he stole my food.
My food. I would like that to sink in.
The next time he came over, I made sure I'd eaten before he arrived. Some lessons you only need to learn once. I may be looking forward to seeing him again, but I shall be watching my food like a hawk.
👂 The Ear Situation
As the weather changes, the little people are spending more time in the house. When I say they're loud, that is an understatement. My poor ears.
Speaking of ears, Dad noticed me shaking my head a few times and decided I needed to see the dog doctor. The dog doctor gave Mum some very nasty ear drops. Nobody asked for my opinion on this plan.
And what was the result? I can hear the little people even more now. On that basis, I remain unconvinced that ear drops are a good thing.
🧳 Something to Look Forward To
I overheard Mum and Dad talking about another weekend away in early October. I'm looking forward to it. I'm even, secretly, looking forward to spending time with Albus. Please don't tell him I said that.
Perhaps there'll be a beach walk or two. I have missed the sea, and I'm sure Albus will be delighted to resume his important work aggravating the seagulls. Whether the seagulls will be delighted is another matter. I'll also be watching my food like a hawk.
I've been informed the little people will be there too. I hope they've lowered their voices by then. I'll let you know next month how it went, and whether my food survived.
