Chaos at Cammo Estate

It's been another busy little week for Wee Ben. We're on day 12 now and, despite a few bumps in the road, it's going well. He has gotten comfortable enough to start pushing boundaries, and we've had to push back, but it's nothing out of the ordinary. We've also realised his eating schedule runs much later than ours, do we've ended up organising a "midnight" snack for him, which he heartily eats. Its all about compromise!

Although I think Big Sis' hope that he'd return from Bootcamp nice and trim isn't going to happen. His day 1 and day 7 weight was exactly the same, so he isn't pining away at least.... 

It's been a miserable week weather wise, which hasn't really helped to enamour Wee Ben to all these walks! We had to fend off zombies one day when a mist rolled in and didn't depart again. Missy was on the case chasing everything that moved and Wee Ben stuck by me, safety in numbers and all that. 

We've had a busy week. The highlight was a cheeky date night out for pancakes. Wee Ben has far more interested in watching the cars pass by than the food, which makes a change from Missys Paddington level Hard Stare(tm). There was errands too. One evening at hubby's brothers to lay carpet, and another scrubbing the house down for visitors. Our friends with the twins visited and they were very enamoured with Wee Ben. A little dog (check) that doesn't jump (check) and comes for cuddles (check), how greats that?

I asked if they wanted to pick up after him, and they quickly went off the idea of keeping him for themselves. Oh, to be 8 again. 

The week was finished up with much crafting (to be unveiled next week) and a trip for all the fur cousins at Cammo Estate. It was raining, but that never stops Maisie, and the three dogs were happily doing their own thing. 

Wee Ben doesn't particularly like Maisie. She's a bit too in-your-face and bouncy for him. The final straw was when she came charging back to us, misjudged her jump over Ben and basically ninja kicked him in the face. After that her stayed well out of her way! 

Another short post from me. Whoever said that 2 dogs was as easy as 1 was lying! We're all knackered!
