Rodders IS tired

We seem to be having a bit of a battle this morning and I am sure that Rodders is tired.

While I was talking to OH on the phone, he made it it work in an hour and a half, Rodders had a piddle by the lounge door :-( He got put in the garden while I cleared up and then started digging in the planter and when he got stopped from doing that stood on the patio chewing at the plants in next doors garden.

He then came in, no treats this time, and had a run about and then settled down to chew the rolled up carpet. He got told off and left it but went back. He got his nose tapped and still went back to it. So a very firm no and another nose tap. He then went and sat on his towel and had a think.

Then a sniff about while he found his way to snuggle fleece at my feet where he has, at last, curled up for a rest.

Forgot to say, from instructions on the Schnauzer Forum I have had a go at making home made liver treats and they were ready this morning. 12p of liver with a shake of garlic powder has probably made enough treats to last the day or even longer. I let OH feed him the first one and Rodders seemed to like it. You can make them out of chicken too so we may have another go with that if these go down well.
