Nellabi and I trotted off to a little dog show supporting Second Chance Kennels in Fife last Saturday. She also won a prize, not, I may add in Oscar’s league – but almost. She came second (out of 10 dogs) for the dog with the waggiest tail 
. The show started at 11 a.m. we didn’t get there until about 1.30 and I am sure if we had been on time she would have won or been placed in each of the classes we could have entered. Probably best that we arrived late for all the other people who entered the other classes, our lateness gave them a chance:lol:. Cassie would have won the waggiest tail class because her tail NEVER stops wagging. She is too old now for long car journeys but doing well. A super old girl, wish I could dip her into a fountain of youth and make her 2 years old. What a dog she must have been. She is currently dosing on my bed. Many congratulations to all who won anything at the DID show, richly deserved, each and every one. Best wishes to all 
. Good morning AudreyWould love to bring my person to the show next year. She can’t get away just now because of the oldies (people and dogs) but she has a year to get organised from now, so hopefully! I would love to visit everyone just so they could see that I am happy and well (and in charge!!!). Especially if there are prizes to be won, I don’t think I would be going home empty-pawed. Didn’t Oscar and Tilly do well, they must be very pleased. I am back at work now having fully recovered from kennel cough, obviously I wouldn’t have been allowed to attend the Second Chance Show if I hadn’t been well enough, so no excuse for not being at work.
She did it again, a good thing this time. We had our test for last night of this session of the dog training and the Nells bells got 103 out of a total of 105. Francis, who does all the paperwork for the club told me that we had the highest score of the night 
. We never get to see the other candidates’ score card. When we went to the judge to get our certificate she again said how much she likes Nellie, what a bright, clever little dog she is and said that she soaks everything up like a sponge. I said in response, "She is a far better dog than I am a person" and the judge said, "I agree" 
. That’s not good is it?? 
Who cares, the Nells bells was the best on the night, she is a good girl.Hells Bells Nells….you will have to get your mammy to video you the next time so we can all admire your performance….in the meantime paws up to you well done little lady delighted for you
Hello everyone, an up-date from Nellabi world. She is very well, just tore out of the house about 20 minutes ago because she saw a cat walking along the top of the fence . Needless to say the cat disappeared from the top of the fence in a split second . Nellie has learned many tricks now and is always keen to show off when she sees the clicker. Dog training finished a couple of weeks ago and we had our end of session test. Guess what? Nellie got the trophy for – and I quote – being the best dog of the night – yipee. We all had to perform obedience type moves in front of a judge and the total scores put the Nells bells and I at the top – not for the first time I may add 
!!! She doesn’t always come to work with me, preferring to take up her guard position on the table where she watches out of the window. She has my father and the other dogs for company all day. Some people at work are complaining because she hasn’t been in the office – honestly, the problems of having a celebrity dog! Also, Cassie (was Cassidy, via DID) continues to do well on her drugs for liver failure. She also has kidney problems, heart problems and an anal gland tumour but you would never know that she had any of these problems. A happier little dog would be difficult to find. She had a routine check-up with the vet last week and apart from (me) being told that she needs to lose a little bit of weight the vet was very pleased with her. I am about to attempt to add a couple of photos of Nellie with her trophy. What a nightmare trying to get a photo of her, she will not stay still, so no change there!
