I haven't written for you before but we have met - I come with a human called Jack (see sidebar) and you know quite a bit about him.  I'm his manager: I make sure he gets up in good time, gets regular walks and generally behaves himself.  It's not easy, let me tell you!

Yesterday we went to see Mary.  I have a good relationship with Mary.  She has quite a good treat tin and she's very good at tickling my ears.  She also helps with making sure that Jack behaves but I am better at that than she is.

Our visit had been planned for quite a while but we can only go sort Mary when the weather is good so this trip had been postponed a few times.  Yesterday the weather was OK (well, it wasn't actually raining) so we went.  We were needed to empty the shed.  Unfortunately Mary wasn't well so Jack cleared the shed while she sat and said yes or no for what she wanted.  I supervised.  I wasn't sure whether it was better to go outside to supervise him more closely or whether to stay in and supervise her.  She had the treat tin so inside won.  

Anyway, we got the job done and Jack arranged the disposal of everything she didn't want.  She went off to bed and we went home taking a lot of things from the shed.  It's good to know she's on my side when it comes to managing Jack.

And, in case you are worried, she phoned to say thank you for my efforts, and she's feeling a lot better

  1. Hello Millie, I am Freddie the Lhasa, you look very cute and my size so would love to run around with you. I get my humans up for regular walks too and as I am a sociable boy, they get to chat with other dog parents too.
    Glad you kept Mary company yesterday and she was feeling better by the time you got home. Good call, staying where the treats were. Sounds as if you are lucky having Jack for a Dog Dad, sure you are loved on your visits.

  6. Hi Millie! So nice to meet you and read all about how you keep Jack organized and helped Mary get her shed cleared out. I think you chose wisely to stay in with Mary so you could keep her company and keep an eye on that treat jar! Thank you for letting us know that Mary was feeling better. Hope to hear from you, again.
