Bad back to basics

Well, what an eventful few days, last night at around 8pm gmt I was following my owner down the stairs when she slipped and fell to the bottom, covering herself in a full cup of tea, and hurting her back quite badly. As helpful as dogs are I just stood there and looked on as she crawled around on the floor in pain and others were picking up pieces of broken tea cup.

I played nurse maid for the rest of the night, with cuddles and attention as she laid on the couch complaining. I even had to pull her up the stairs to bed, I'm such a hero.

So today she was feeling much better not that I noticed I was up with the lark and moseying around down the stairs whilst the invalid had a lie in. There is nothing worse than an incapacitated owner, whilst she was lying in bed, I drank out of the toilet, chewed up lots of tissues I stole from the recycling bin, brought in sticks from the garden and chewed them up on the living room floor and finally raided the bin for left overs...ahhh..all in days work, by the time my owner made it out of bed I was out for the count and fast asleep.









I was next called upon in the early afternoon to empty the washing machine and tumble dryer- yes that's right I'm house dog, nurse maid, turned domestic goddess. Since the invalid can't bend down to empty the washing machine it was my job to drag out each item into a basket ready for the tumble dryer. It was great fun, you should have seen her face when I ran off with a sock, and the best part is she couldn't chase me, so I apologise to the person who will find only one clean sock in their laundry pile as I have forgotten where I left the other one.

Later in the evening we took a VERY SLOW walk over to the park where I met Moose the German Shepard. He is 7 months old and kept stealing my ball :( we had great fun chasing it though, our owners were racing us across the park, but I was just not quick enough to get to the ball before Moose, which wouldn't have been so bad if he hadn't kept stealing it, he even tried to take it home!

Anyway friends thanks again for tuning in, below is a link to the Labrador story of the week- enjoy.
