Rodders and the collar

Rodders has been playing happily inside and out until OH rang to say good morning, he then thought that I should be paying attention to him and not OH so started to bite my slippers and dressing gown and needed to be diverted with something else.

He then asked to go out and thought it might be fun to play with the two slugs on the patio - Eeeeeuuugggghhh! So I had to dispose of them fairly quickly. He then went and had a sniff about and another poo. He is very brave now and uses the back patio, near the gate. Luckily he won't go on the border along side Bob and Pat's Garden as that is the only place we have plants poisonous to dogs - it will be fenced off at some point.

I have put his collar on this morning, we have been a bit lax with this. He does keep stopping for a bit of a scratch but is generally OK with it. He has just asked to go out again and so is in the garden with it on. Just sneaked out to look, as he is on the back patio and not visible, so the collar isn't stopping him from sniffing about and having a good time.

Couple of strange things. We had a video call with OH last night and Rodders was moving his head from side to side as OH was talking to him which was quite cute. He has started to ask to go out at the lounge door instead of the conservatory door!

Rodders came in and was up and down to the sofa so I asked if he was a tired boy, at which point he tried to get up on the sofa! Grabbed everything I needed to hand and snuggle fleece and brought him up with me. He had a bit if a scratch at his collar but soon settled down and is now asleep at my feet.
