Training and vets visit



 Last night Scrumpy risked life and limb to climb his play pen walls and I found him in his lounge bed when I came downstairs this morning, with no damage to the rest of the room, so it's good all round!

I have been putting him in his play pen for a few minutes at a time today, leaving the room and returning with lots of love and a treat each time.

It didn't take him long to settle down for a little sleep, so that's good.

Here he is with his favourite toy - a grouse 

The next challenge today was taking him to the vets.

My husband couldn't come with us as planned, so I have to put him in the back of the car by himself, with his comfy sweater, well my comfy sweater actually, and I also put a kong in with some peanut butter in it to "help" the situation.

He did make a fuss for the first few miles, but he did settle - just in time for our arrival at the vets.
He was very well behaved and had his 2nd jab and got microchipped to, so he was a very brave little puppy .Again on the car journey home, I took the long way back, he soon settled and went to sleep.

So, so far so good in the Scrumpy household today.  

We have been invited next door for dinner tonight, as we have no kitchen at the moment, so hopefully he will  not escape his play pen.  I am about to give him some more training now - he's a quick learner - he's not a stupid puppy at all!

More later folks
