Post walk doze with arch nemesis Pepsi… She is only pretending to doze and is keeping watch on her raccoon!
IMAG2418.jpgAll fluffy after my bath and hanging out in bed… (The extra fluffiness really helped in my mission to coat the ENTIRE bed with my hair MWAHAHAHA!)
IMAG2433-1-1.jpgI like sitting up like a person and dad rubs and tickles my belly and I laugh and wriggle like a worm! Check out my smile!
IMAG2408-1.jpgHallo –
Just to say Flo is still the furry apple of our eye! I was sick for a week and confined to bed and Flo was in every morning and would jump up on the side of the bed and lick my hand until I lifted her up. She snuggled in and really seemed to know I was sick and needed cheering up. Even when she was in the sitting room with Colin she would wander in and out to the bedroom periodically to check on me – It was really endearing.
Me being sick was a bit of a blessing in a way as Flo only really liked walking on the lead with me so the week gave her the time to start going with Colin on his own.
Yesterday, she went to the park on a walk with Colin. Then today, we all went to Wicklow harbour for a walk. Then on the way home we called for Pepsi and got another walk in on Bray seafront. The two of them are so cute – Flo adores Pepsi and Pepsi acts as if Flo is an irritating little sister but at the same time is watching her at all times and hates when Flo ignores her. (Flo goes running to the front door as soon as we open the car door and runs in searching for Pepsi and barrels into her – It is really sweet!)
Flo makes friends wherever she goes with her sunny disposition. We love her so much and she rewards us with non stop love and enthusiasm!
I do have a question around toilet training though – She does continue to puddle in the house. She goes out lots and does wee outside loads (And does go to the door etc) but she has little accidents quite frequently. She is not incontinent (As she does not leak – she squats so knows she is about to go). It is not a huge issue as we have tiled floors and heaps of anti bacterial spray (And lots of patience) but just wondering of anyone has any tips? We dont react when she goes in the house and praise her loads when she goes outside (And if we see her starting to squat in the house we say ‘No’ and she stops and goes to the door and we heap praise on her). Just wondering if we could improve anything? She seems to drink an extraordinary amount of water compared to other dogs and it is a bit surprising as she is so tiny! As I said – It is not a big issue but obviously would be better if we could train her fully (Although Colin finds it hilarious to see me hopping to the shower when I have stepped in yet another puddle in my socks!)Big ‘hi’ to everyone from Flo. She is such a little dote and made our apartment a real home!

Today I went to the Dog Run in Shankill (It is just across the road from me but I have not liked it so much until now as it was very wet and muddy for us furry smallies). It was full of big dogs and little dogs and Pepsi showed me how to chase dogs. I had a blast. I am very very tired though and am going to have a nap now.
I cant wait to go there lots and lots in the Summer.
I am being brought to a place called Donegal for Easter where there is a beach right beside the house and I can run for miles and miles. I want to see what all this fuss about sandy beaches is!
Hello to all my pals,
Flo xIMAG2548.jpgFlo, you are one lucky doggie x lots of excitement I’m your little life
Looking forward to hearing about your Easter trip. X
Hallo all!
Just sending you my latest update. I am really enjoying the sunny weather. I love sitting out in the balcony and also have moved my cushion to in front of the window so I can stretch out in the sun.
I am still visiting Pepsi a lot and boy do we have fun! She is starting to show me who is boss and ate my dinner the other day but I dont mind and am still happy and smiley.
My granny called the other day and brought me a big juicy bone and it was the BEST ever. I have been gnawing it ever since.
I have made lots of dog friends where I live. We live on the ground floor and have a gate in our balcony. So all the dogs come and call in and I can go out to play with them. My favourite is a puppy called Lola. She is the same size as me but runs and bounces. When she runs, I run. Then when we catch each other we roll over in a big ball on the grass. She is turning me into a puppy. We were out playing for over an hour today and I needed big naps after.
I cant wait for my Easter holidays because there are lots of dogs where I am going. Lots of walks and dogs – What could be better (Maybe a juicy bone)
I have been better at puddling – I am really trying.
I have a new game now – I go to the door loke I have to wee and when my dad gets up to let me out, I run and jump on his seat and steal it.
Hello to all my old pals,
Flo xxxFlo, you cheeky monkey
. Pretending to want out just to get your Dad out of his chair and then take his place The training of your family is clearly going very well indeed P.S. Indianna – My pal Pepsi is a black Patterdale like your Nellie except with short hair (Or else Pepsi has been shaving!)
Flo, between you and your Patterdale pal, you have created a force to be reckoned with
. Watch out world – don’t tackle this pair – you WILL lose Bray seafront on a Sunday – So many dogs to greet!
