Hi Everyone,
It’s me, Digger! I am 14 months old now and weigh 60 lbs.
Although it’s very hot here in the Okanagan, we still get to go lots of places and do lots of things. We go golfing lots, and the guys at the OK Club always say “Hi Digger” when I come in and “My, how you’ve grown since last year, how do you even fit on the cart?” But I do, and still enjoy the wind in my fur and nice cold water in my travel bowl.
We always go to the restaurant for dinner afterwards, and I am such a good boy and lie quietly under the table, like I am supposed to. My folks are very proud of me. My peeps also take me to Starbucks, where they have coffee and they have water for pups like me. Then we go to the Mall lots, too. They have a candy store there, but nobody gives me anything. Shucks, I sometimes get apple, but they wouldn’t get me that one on a stick. Meanies! We go to the pet store lots, too, and I met a little guy that looked like me, but he wouldn’t play.
I had a bath a couple of weeks ago, but it was on a rainy day and I was very chilly when I got home, so I got a nice warm blankie on me.
We still do lots of training. In the morning, I do sits and stands, heels and sides, and back ups and perches, and something called duration, where I have to wait a long, long time before I can go outside. If I am very good, I earn my breakfast, but I have to wait for that too.
All in all, life is good for a big boy like me. I’ll let you know what happens next month.
