My little puppeh is growing up...
Yesterday, Carrot purloined and then ate half a picnic pork pie.
My baby's growing up and doing very doggy things :p Pilau would be so proud of him.

Ok.
First pic, Carrot about four weeks ago. He's been working on his hypno-stare technique  IMG_0635 Next is from about a week and a half ago. Wet, muddy, tired but happy. Apols for the poor quality of the pic :p  IMG_0639

Couldn't you just bite that nose?
I swear it is made of coconut dusted chocolate.

Incidentally, note the colour of Carrot in that bottom pic. And then note, with a wry smile, the starting colour of the cover he is lying on.

Plastic bottles are to puppies what large cardboard cartons are to kids, and what paper bags are to kittens.
The large plastic Diet Coke bottles are my Lab's favorite. |

Aww y'know. Forgot to mention but on Fridayhe got attacked. Not hurt, but very frightened.
Mum and I got back from Amelia's exhibition and took Dan and Carrot for a nighttime walk in the village. Suddenly, a staffordshire bull terrier cross (taller and longer legged than usual) or some kind of pitbull, comes barrelling over the road towards us. The owner was walking on the other side talking on his mobile. I knew from its body language that it was trouble. But as it got to us it seemed to slow and go into greeting mode. Carrot did the submissive puppy greeting and the dog turned on him. Pinned him to the floor and started ragging on him, biting his fur. I tried to get the dog off, probably unwisely risking my arms being bitten. the owner runs over starts trying to get the dog off. Manages to bat her away and I put my arms round carrot and start checking for damage. None as far as i could tell. Then the dog comes back in for another go, gets batted away by the owner again and starts heading towards Dante. Mum puts herself in front of Dan and says a deep 'No!' just as the owner grabs the dog and picks her bodily up. Not only was the dog not on a lead, but he didn;t even have a lead with him. he was apologetic and claimed she was usually so gentle. Yeah right. I've seen that dog before. It ran out of its house onto the street as I was passing their house about a year ago. Saw me and started to walk very purposefully towards me, but didnt get to me because the owner came running, white-faced, out the house and scurried her back in. I know doggy body language. That dog was coming in for trouble on both occasions. Carrot was fine. No harm done that I could find. But as I say, I know doggy body language. Carrot was saved by the fact that he is a young enough pup not to have even contemplated fighting back. he did what any sensible puppy would do in that situation, he made himself as flat and small as possible. Had he been a little older and made any attempt to fight his ground I am 100 % convinced that she'd have ripped him to pieces. If she'd got to Dan, and he had attempted to fight back despite his advanced years, I don't doubt it would have been horrific. *Shakes head*
