yesterday was different. this really nice lady came to visit us and apparently she is my doctor and she is called a vet. what’s really nice is she kept giving me little treats.  what’s not so nice is she poked me with something really sharp.  mum told me i have to have these shots every once and awhile so i won’t get sick. i’m not really sure what that means but it doesn’t sound too good, so i will let them poke me, just a little though!  she gave mum all this stuff to read about bringing up a puppy but i know my mum has done this before, so i am not worried, i know she is doing things the right way, least that’s what i think!

my puppy training is continuing.  i had a big poop in the house this morning, sorry mum but i’m blaming it on those shots, they did funny things to my tummy and i just couldn’t hold it.  i tried to wake you but you wouldn’t listen. i will though try to remember to ring the bell instead of just staring at the door.  see mum bought these bells that she put on the door for me to ring when i need to pee or poop but i keep forgetting. so much to learn but i am because i am a border collie and we learn things really quickly but we do have a stubborn side to us as well.

i have discovered these two very big balls outside. mum calls them basket balls but to me they are just great big toys to play with.  i have decided that they must always be togther but it can be a little difficult, i’m working on that one.
