bens been really naughty tonight.

we had been out for a while. made fuss of him when we got back, and after my cuppa went to take him out. knocked for his friend sam as we do every night, got to the point now where ben will take me to sams door.
well ben decided he was going to have a *go* a sam. so told ben NO and made him walk to heel.
got to the feild had a look no dogs. so let him off for a run. normally him n sam have a bit of a chase game then they go n do their own thing. well ben has go to look for squirrels (as normal) i called him he came back, then went off for a sniff about. and this woman had an elderly GSD on the lead so ive called ben back to put him on the lead. and hes just flown at the poor old dog. i yelled at ben, and he did come back straight away. apoligised as best i could. no injuries thankfully. woman was good about it.
all i can put it down to is 1 the heat, 2 we went out.
but hes *in the dog house now* no fuss off me now.
so 2morow when he goes walkies its onlead only till hes going to be a good boy.
ill start walking him when it gets a bit cooler in the evenings i think.

I'm sure its the heat -as you say, its best to walk them when its cooler.

very hot here today, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was the heat..
Missy had a 6am walk and she'll get another about 10pm.

its not safe to walk around here after dark chav central near by.

I can sympathise - its immigrant gangs here - we actually put Missy in the car and go for a walk in the quiet part of Hornchurch. What a world!

we are carless now. cant see ben sitting on the back of the motor bike some how. or having a saddler on the mountain bike

Oh! dear. I would hope it's just the weather, it was sunny here yesterday, but the day before it wasn't just heavy and close, that sometimes makes mine abit miserable. So maybe he was just having a off day,,,,,like we all do.

just took be out alone. he was ok for a while. but then he spotted a darn squirrel and was off like a shot towards the road.luckily he came back (reluctantly) so i walked back around the feild. he spotted another squirrel darn things are everywhere (rolls eyes) be has gone into the bushes i could hear him crashing about, he eventully came out with a huge spikey lump of bush attached to his tail, great had fun getting that off. so its back on the lead walks and if he carrys on being a pain it will be heel work on the footpaths instead of fun over the feild.
