A Very Special Saturday

I was a very cold boy today  :o(  It was cold and wet in the garden and I stood shaking on the grass instead of doing a wee-wee. Nanny asked Sophie to find something for me to wear because my hoodie doesn't keep me warm enough. She brought down a snuggly jumper with Christmas on it. I don't know what "Christmas" is but it was very warm.

Then I snuggled up on Mummy's lap while she watched the telly.







I did wake up eventually and played a game of tug with my Mummy and my little doggy.


After our game of tug, something awful happened!!

Mummy said that I was a bit smelly and so I was taken out to the kitchen and put in a bowl in the sink!!! I was not sure about it at all......



and then my mummy - who says she loves me - poured water on me!!! Alright. So it was quite nice and lovely warm water, but still!!!


She poured the water ALL over me! Just look how wet I was  :o(


My mummy then rubbed her hands all over me (that felt quite nice!) but she left bubbles all over me!


And then she poured soooooooooo much water over me that I had to go shake-a-shake-a-shake-a-shake!


So there I was - cold and wet - but had to admit that I smelled pretty good and felt pretty good too! But I was still cold and wet  >:o(


Then another quite nice bit happened. Mummy wrapped me up in a great big towel and gave me a great big snuggle for being a good boy.


And then another good/bad bit. Nanny held me all snuggly on her lap while she was sat down in Mummy's bedroom but my mummy pointed a noisy thing at me that made me jump! The noisy thing blew lovvvvvvvvvvvely warm air on which was lovely but the noise........

Anyway. The noisy lovely thing made me all dry and warm so I was not cold and wet any more :o)

The absolute best thing happened when we went back downstairs. I felt all nice and fluffy and warm and sleepy, so Mummy let me cuddle up in the chair with her again.



And then I went fast asleep...............


When I woke up, we had to go out in the car and we went to the vets again. I didn't see my special Oliver this time but a nice lady called Isabel. She said my cough still needed medicine but that I'd get better soon.  She put me on the scales and weighed me and said that I was now 2.15kgs which made Nanny happy. She says that means I've put on 0.25kgs in just one week  :o)  I'm getting to be a big boy!!

We got back in the car and went to a new place. It was a house and there were some people in it called Granny and Bamp. They were very lovely people who made a big fuss of me and talked to me nicely but I was more interested in going for a sniffsniffsniff around their house!

Later on, Mummy and Bran went out for a walk to the park with Cooper and I reallllllllly wanted to go but Mummy said that I'm not allowed to run around at the park because I am too little and too poorly and none of the other dogs want to catch my cough  :o(  She did give me big cuddles though to make me feel better. I love my mummy xxxx
