Why do I bother?: November 2010

I didn't know it then but this is me meeting my new brother for the first time. I was living with lots of other dogs at a place called "Many Tears". I learnt that not all humans were nasty during my two weeks there. I was given food here which was really nice as at the place I was at didn't feed me and I was kept in a cage. I don't know why they did it, I tried to be nice to them but they were not nice to me.

After meeting my brother, he is called Disney, we went into a car with my new mummy and daddy. I was really frightened and even though Disney was nice to me I was sick. I tried to eat it up as I know that humans get nasty if you are sick. I was surprised when my daddy didn't shout or hit me. He just took me and Disney and we sat on some grass with mummy. There was a lot of strange sounds and I was really confused and frightened.

On the way to my home we stopped the car and I had some fries to eat. I wasn't sure what to do at first but Disney showed me. They were really nice I can tell you.

The picture above is one of my other mummy's. I now have three! I have got Mummy, Mummy Cheryl and Mummy Alice. The picture is of me, Disney and Mummy Alice. I didn't know it but we came all the way from Llanelli in Wales (that's in a different country from where I live now!). Mummy and Daddy (I only have one Daddy) brought Disney all the way up to see me. Mummy Cheryl and Mummy Alice couldn't come up but they came from their house just to see me. They picked me up and cuddled me lots and lots. I wasn't sure what to do at the time as no one had done that to me before. They kept saying I was skin and bone, but they should have seen me before those nice people at Many Tears saved me!

I have Aunties and Uncles as well now. Some I haven't met but the one's I have met give me lot's of cuddles. Auntie Silv and Auntie Thelma really love me lots and lots. Uncle Shaun caught a plane to see me!

My brother Disney has helped me do this while Daddy is watching the window thing downstairs. He is looking after me now as you can see in the first picture above. He has taught me lots of new words because I didn't get to learn too much in that horrible place I lived. Disney tells me it was a Welsh Puppy Farm. I have tried to tell Disney what it was like but I don't think he believes me. When I first got home I found it ever so hard because there was all this space. I ran around in 3 foot circles ever so fast. Daddy says it must have been because that's the space I had to live in.

I have used lots of my new words while writing this. I really like the cuddles and walks and I know that the car takes me to the park. We walk to the park just by our house. We call it the Blockhouse. I have made lots of friends there. They have been showing me how to play. I like playing with them all. There are all sorts of shapes and sizes up there, some smaller than me and some bigger. I have met Frodo, Mollie and Millie, Toby, Buddie and Billie, Dexter and Cooper, Ruby, Reg, Lola, Charlie and Paddy and lots others. I am good at playing now. Yesterday Daddy put a different lead on me and I was able to run around with everyone, although we did get tangled some times but it was really fun.

I know I have a lot more to learn. there are things that still frighten me. Disney has his own door that he says I can use. But it really frightens me. I have tried to break it but haven't yet. Sometimes I like it because Daddy says sausages and Disney runs out, I follow and Daddy gives us some sausage roll. I am not as frightened of it as I was but I still won't go through by myself. I am doing some pee pee outside and it makes Mummy and Daddy happy because they tell me I am a good boy. When I pee in the house they don't say good boy but I don't know why yet. I suppose it will make sense soon. I have learnt lots of new things, Daddy says it takes time.

One thing I do like is that I can sleep better now. When I first got here I was very confused. I couldn't sleep because I didn't know if they were going to hurt me. Now I sleep when I want, even up by a window so I can see out when I wake up!!!!

I have to go now as Disney has just said something about final whistle has gone on the window thingy. I don't know what that means but I suppose that applies to a lot of things at the moment. Mummy and Daddy have taken lots of pictures so next time Daddy leaves this on and goes out I will get Disney to help me put them on for you.
