Sally visited

Woofs and hello!

Great news - my girlfriend Sally came to visit me yesterday. I haven't seen her for ages (the last time was when we were both just young pups) but she is still as beautiful as I remembered. Oh yes, and she brought her humans with her too - someone had to drive after all!

We had lots of fun playing in the backyard - running really fast, playing bark-chasey, woofing, scratching up the grass etc - a perfect afternoon. Sally wasn't overly impressed by my dog pavilion - she said it was a bit drafty and asked why there were so many of Craig's old socks on the ground.

Something strange happened to my special dog-door while we were playing - a huge suitcase somehow came out of the storage room and propped itself in from to the door flap. It took Sally and me a while, but we soon worked out how to push the suitcase out of the way and ran upstairs to the humans where there was delicious food that we thought they wanted to share with us (turned out they didn't want to share at all). The humans took us downstairs again and we ran off for another quick play only to find not only the suitcase but also a chair and a large bin in front of the door! Very strange! After lots of effort we managed to move all of the impediments a bit though we could only make a narrow gap. Fortunately Sally is quite slim and managed to squeeze inside to alert the humans to the strange door blockage - leaving me behind! Hmmm .... eventually Jude came to rescue me, and Sally and I were allowed to stay inside.

We had a fun day - and I really enjoyed having the doggy company. I think I need a canine brother - the humans are OK but they don't know how to play bark-chasey and they strongly resist my invitations to sit in my dog pavilion!

In the meantime I think you will agree that Sally and I make a very handsome couple!

Woofs, Toby

PS: Today I've been doing a bit of extra dozing - guess whether I have been recovering from all that extra exercise or dreaming of Sally?
