DAY 3 - In the DAVE diary !
Whewww whewww it's morning on the third day of my stay, with these funny, happy and ok - slightly weird people - there are two small ones - well i say small - but both are quite large
- i think they are pups - and one VERY large one, who sort of takes over -
and has taken it upon herself to boss everyone about -
and also within the walls here is a big fat black scary thing,
who they all call " PeggatyPawz"
- and two small rather flighty - hoitey toitey things that are called the ' the cats' -
I know that because i keep hearing " Dave - Leave the 'the Cats' alone " and " ohhh Dave the 'the Cats' are doing nothing wrong " and also " Dave - The ' the cats' are eating - your not a ' the cat ' " -
So - with a matter of deduction - which i am very good at -
I believe these small things are the ' the CATS '
The people here call the brown one with attitude " Derek"
and the grey fluffy one who is my friend i think " Rodney "
- 'Rodney' seems a little dim to me ...
while 'Derek' is a tough cat who is almost a scary as the huge big fluffy black thing !
( i really think i should have been one of those Policemen on the television who are like me with lots of hair ) - i have always thought i would be good at upholding the law and now - being with this big person - the 'fun' one - i think i'm right because she keeps saying - " Dave - Don't take things into your own paws " - and then she laughs - I think - she thinks - she has just made a funny -
I wag my tail and smile a big big smile - this keeps her happy - Bless her -
She says this after i take it upon myself to tell the small furry things off - usually for eating or walking or in fact for being near the 'fun' woman - I have taken it upon myself to be the 'fun' woman's guardian - i think she definitely needs watching -
She seems to think lots of things are OK -
Like the small furry ' the cats ' sitting on the sofa's , and the grey cat 'Rodney' helping himself to my food and food on the side and the big fluffy scary thing, being so gwumpy with everyone,
THAT IS NOT OK BEHAVIOR
- i know different - I WILL STOP THIS BEHAVIOR !
I have a feeling that these smaller furry things cannot be trusted as well -
I do sometimes get it into my head that the smaller pups are misbehaving
I have to take it upon myself to tell them off -
But - earlier today - I showed my teeth, my beautiful white shiny teeth.
I showed them, because the smaller of the two pups looked as though she was going to kick the 'fun' lady on the leg and THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE ...
So i ran to the 'fun' lady and showed my teeth at the young pup and then it happened
- i made a very deep deep rumbling noise - frankly - even i don't know where the noise came from -
i don't think i have ever made it before - and it even scared me a little -
But - it scared everyone - and the 'fun' lady jumped up - and pushed the pup onto the sofa -
'Fun' lady - well - 'not so fun' lady, grabbed at my collar and pulled me away,
WHAT THE HELL - she shocked me a bit
she was very cross with me - VERY VERY CROSS ..
she pushed my back end down and got me to sit -
WELL = I did NOT want her do this and showed my teeth again - she was scaring me
VERY VERY LOUDLY she SHOUTED
" NO ...................DAVE.....................NO ... "
she put a hand on my head immediately -
Mmmmmmmmmmmm - This was funny
- I didnt know what this hand was doing - I was very worried and shook quite alot
- it reminded me of a time when I WAS A PUP - and i hated that time
- and i shook - i think i scared the 'fun' lady now - i did tremble quite alot
- BUT i felt soothed, by her hand, i had a feeling she would not hurt me -
and I calmed down - I was not happy - but i was calm
I liked her hand on my head, i licked her other hand -
she slowly stroked my cheek with her finger
and she made shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'ing noises - I lay down .....
The 'fun' lady sat next to me on the floor
- with just a hand on me - keeping me calm
It did help me too - i liked her sitting with me - I did not want to be Pushed out
That is what had happened before - I remember now -
i had shown my teeth before -
BECAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS HELPING,
and i had been locked in another room.
That was NOT fair -
I WAS ONLY HELPING
- I heard her telling the young pup that she THOUGHT I was protecting her
because -i thought the pup
was kicking the 'fun' woman -
and well - this seemed fairly spot on to me -
I DID THINK THE SMALL PUP WAS HURTING THE NICE 'FUN' LADY
I did not THINK the pup was hurting the 'fun' woman -
I KNEW IT
- and - now i KNOW after hearing her chatting to the pup -
I hate her shouting -
her voice goes all loud and sounds very stern
- so - I must try to not use my mouth
and the shiny white things in there very often
and especially not when the smaller pups are about
I also think that I KNOW
that the young pups are not meaning harm to anyone -
They are just noisy and move - ALOT !!
so I must be very very careful !
BUT
When the fun woman and i play -
I use the mouthy white things alot -
'fun' woman is ok with it then -
She laughs and jokes with me then -
even though i leave lots of red marks on her arm !
She says to the pups that
she KNOWS i am playing then
SHE THINKS SHE KNOWS ALOT THIS 'FUN' WOMAN !
I'm trying to tell her about mixed messages -
but she does not really understand about it =
I will train her better soon and then
she will get what i am on about !
But - for the time being I am enjoying this side of life -
and i love to have lots of attention,
ear squiggles and hugs and play fights -
THATS MY FAVOURITE !!
- It reminds me of my time as a smaller Fluffy with my own friends
that were called 'brothers and sisters' -
i don't see these fluffy bundles any more - i wonder why ?? - they were fun !
Ohhhhh i do miss mum and dad - i wonder if they are ok -
i wonder if dad has been o the beach today
Chased the seagull things as i am not there to do it
- I wonder if they have remembered to feed the small furry
that is there with them called Smudge ?
I wonder if Smudge is still there with them ?
- with mum and dad ?
- well - im here - so i wonder where Smudge is ??
- I wonder if he is ok ??
- OBVIOUSLY not that i care
- just because i am interested !!
I have all these 'Wonders' - to think about and nobody to ask about them
- I used to ask Boris Next door any questions that i had
- Boris was a Big Fluffy like me
- But - well - he didn't have much Fluff,
Actually he did not have any straggly fluffly bits AT ALL
- and he has a short stumpy tail and a very very funny nose
- mine is a long beautiful smelling nose - and Boris's nose is short and fluppy
- i don't know how else to describe it - it sort of snuffled alot !
- He was a funny unfluffy thing like me - ohh and i know he was like me
- because he Woofed like i can - although - Boris always used to woof ALOT - so i didn't bother !! He woofed for both of us !!
I wonder what Boris is doing now ??
- I liked Boris - he was my friend .......
He isnt like PeggatyPawz - The big scary fluffy thing
that lives in this house now - Boris was fun - he used to play and we used to run and bounce at each other - he used to put his paws flat on the floor and his bottom in the air and his whole back end used to wiggle - Boris was Funny .
This Old dog here is NOT funny - In no way shape or form is she funny - she is scary -
BUT having the smaller pups here makes up for it -
They take me for walks and the boy runs with me - and BOY IS HE FAST -
I have to sprint to keep up with him - but he is always telling me i am so good for not stopping
- and so good for keeping in step - i love going with him - He is fun -
and the girl pup - she loves me sooo much - she walks slower -
and she shows me things - like the flowers - and she gets me to sniff them
but this is when i can have a sniff at other things too
and a look around at this place - its nice here
- there are lots of smells and a fair bit to do -
also there are lots of dogs around -
some woof at me - but some come up and say hello -
i always wag my tail high so they know i want to say hello !
- Its nice - i like them !
Well - nothing very much happened today.
The 'fun' lady and I stayed in while the smaller pups went out
- they had gotten ready very very very fast and Mum - opps - not mum - 'fun lady, said they had to be quick as school started five minutes ago - They both rushed out the door - and jumped into a car -
i know this because i was watching from the window !
- Anyways they left and then 'fun' lady made a coffee thing and we sat down and we talked about a lady coming to take me for a walk, as the 'fun' lady - it turns out, is unable to walk me all that often, because she has a problem with her head -
Well - I had NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL SHE WAS GOING ON ABOUT -
She was saying things like Funny Head, and Dizzy,Giddy,Tumor, Brain, lots of different things,
Well - I know my Brain is in my head - and it is fluffy -
and the 'fun' lady said her head sometimes goes 'fluffy' and well -
that really made no sense to me what-so-ever -
How can her head go 'Fluffy' ??!
Where is Boris when i need to ask him a question ??
But - i looked interested and she was happy that i took notice -
I am VERY VERY GOOD AT TAKING NOTICE ! -
and then the 'fun' lady spoke with a person who was on the thing she sits in front of alot
- she calls it a computer = i have no idea what it is -
but there are pictures and moving pictures
and she makes lots of noise with her fingers on keys when she is on it -
and she laughs when she is on it - She laughs ALOT -
Usually laughing at me when i sneek on the sofa !!
She pretends not to see me - But i have a feeling she does !
I f i give her kisses - i get away with ANYTHING !!
and i loves it when she laughs - i wag my tail and bounce about
I bring her toys that she throws for me -
and she is laughing and playing and laughing again
ohh id love to know what she is watching -
There are dogs barking sometimes and sometimes people saying things like
'what a silly cat' and 'that dog is being a sheep' -
well - I'm thinking mum watches some very strange things -
Ohh no - NOT MUM - 'fun lady' ...
and she crys - oh dearie me does she cry -
sobbing and she is so upset -
and my head seems to always end up soaking wet
- then two minutes later she is laughing again
- and patting me and ohh every emotion you can think of
- this 'fun' lady is very emotional !!
I'm a little upset when she is upset and i come and rest my chin on the 'fun' ladies knee
- this makes her happy - Im pleased that the older dog is not in sight -
she seems to be not very good at hearing - but - how she can miss the noise i dont know !
- we also played in the garden - with my bone - that ' PeggatyPawz ' has LENT me - and then when we came back in - well - i am very persistent and i keep wanting my bone thrown for me -
omg how i love that bone !
'Fun' Lady says i am very cute and i am not to use 'emotional blackmail' with my eyes
when i look at her I do have a lovely face - even i think so !
- 'Fun' lady says i am very cute and far too adorable
- and she cant resist - So -
I USE MY EYES ALL THE TIME !!
I say LENT because the big fluffy gwumpy thing keeps telling me they are HER toys
and NOT mine
- I do give her a kiss to say thank you
- but she puts her lip up at me -
I take it she does not like my kisses -
and that's ok with me because her breath smells -
I am actually getting a little bit fed up of her Gwumpy ways -
but - well - i get that she is old - and i try not to let it bother me !
Well - this evening the 'fun lady ' was so very pleased as all us furries were sat down together -
We bigger fluffies were both on the floor - and the two 'the cats' were on the big comfy sofa -
I thought was a little unfair - but - well - i let it be, ... for now - anyway
- Mum got out - Ohh no - not mum - mum is at home with dad -
Ohh i hope they are OK - I wonder what they are doing ??
Wheres Boris so i can ask him ??
-
Ohh i want to stay here for a little while longer - these people are fun -
Anyway ' Fun lady ' Got out something that kept shining a light and going click
- and the 'fun' lady was so very pleased with herself saying
' Ohh thats a lovely shot - '
well - i don't know who had been shot, but i wouldn't call it lovely -
well - not for them ! ..
I hope they were ok - Mmmm - after being shot i very much doubt it ..
After the 'fun lady ' had taken this 'thing' of me and PeggatyPawz and the 'the cats'
Well, we got up and moved !! Three of us went to the other side of the room,
and then they all ( They - being the 'fun lady' and the two pups ) went mad again because we sat down together and apparently looked 'gorgeous' -
although - the smallest pup said it was a shame that 'rodney' wasnt there with us -
as then it would have been the whole family together -
But Rodney ( whom i presume is the grey fluffy 'the cat'.. )
stayed on the sofa next too the larger of the two pups...
I quite liked being part of a whole family !!!
Anyways - after a short sit down and the a quick wee in the garden - boy was it cold - we all went upstairs - ohhh gwumpy PeggatyPawz didnt - she stayed downstairs - But- just before i went up - and i think, she did not know, i knew - BUT - she gave me a little nudge and kiss - so
- i am thinking that the gwumpy - is maybe, not so gwumy, after all !! -
Tomorrow - I might try and put this too the test !!
I snuck on the bed again halfway through the night -
but - Mum - Opps - NOT MUM 'FUN LADY' - WOKE UP
and she went out for a wee - when she came back she noticed that the grey fluffy 'the cat' was on the bed too - The 'Fun Lady' started to sing
Three in the bed - and the little one said -
SHE LAUGHED !
OHHH I LOVE TO HEAR HER LAUGH !
She got into bed VERY VERY CAREFULLY as to not disturn US TWO !!
Mum said goodnight and gave first 'Rodney' a kiss on the head - and then ME !!
I GOT A KISS ON THE HEAD AND A GOOD NIGHT !
GOOD NIGHT MUM
Watch out for the next enstallment of
#rescuedogdave !
