Watty's Awakening
Comments

awww wd has put the hours in so I'm glad his training of the old lady is paying off. 😆
There used to be a sheep dog along the road from me who stood forlorn behind the drive gates looking sadly at his ball that had rolled underneath, down the pavement and into the gutter. All the local gullible mugs were well trained to go awwww, poor doggy, have you lost your ball? then chuck it over only for him to race to get it and shove it back under before the mug walked on 😆 🤣 😂 of course we all obliged like the well trained old lady 👵 🐕
Dogs ain't chumps ! 😘❤️

Love that story @daisy_1571
And good feedback @TallGirl
WattyDog miserable. I've had to work and the old lady has had a day off without his approval.
Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!7 -

Stinky is also fed up. I may not be working, but apparently I'm boring (I have been doing laundry, cooking, and making up lick mats, kongs, and freeze treats for the freezer… which are not for me 🙄).
Far to hot and horsefly-ey for proper walks, far too windy to do much in the garden.

Watty Dog needs to have words with the old lady. I think a contract is in order. Poor lad.

Mr daisy has just said that wd should give her a bad review on Yelp. Then he said wd should be more pawsative. 🙄 I'm not reading any more wd tales out to him 🤣

My Chub shorts turned up today. Hoping I can get in them as they do look very skinny! However I managed to tip a boiling cup of tea into my lap in a cafe today, so currently have my thighs wrapped in clingfilm. Hopefully things will be better in the morning.
ETA I also tipped a glass of kefir over the dining room table this morning. Table cloth needs to go in the wash.
