This week we’ve really started to get a daily routine. If we get up around 5.30 we can usually catch him before he needs to pee/poo, which is a big plus in toilet training. Minnie usually gets a bit of a lie in before she gets up around 7, and which point we have mad half-hour, fighting over toys, growling and tumbling. Out for pees, breakfast, out for pees, bit of play, out for pees, sleep bye-byes, out for pees……and repeat.
Friday was a big day – second injection! I was away, but Rog took him in the back of my car, where he squeaked and squawked all the way to the vets. He has put on a whole 2 kilos in 2 weeks! (previous weight was 5.4 kilos, so that’s a 37% increase). The vet was very impressed with how he is doing, and he was very well behaved getting jabs and flea treatment. But he does need constant supervision, otherwise a bed may be destroyed….
On Sunday he got to come with us to junior parkrun. Minnie was coming too, and having them both in the back of the car seemed to calm and reassure him, and there was no squeaking or complaining. Once there, he was very happy to be met and petted by his adoring public. I was tail-walking with Mnnie, so Rog took Toby into the centre of the park, and did some off-lead recall work, which he excelled at.
So now that he’s had his jabs, he’ll be able to go to doggy daycare, which will make working life a bit simpler for us both.
