OMG!!! POPPLE CAN SWIM!!!!

[Puppy]

Unfortunately, she chose to demonstrate this at Grassy corner (a blind corner on the Cam), during evening traffic, and then attempting to chase my uni development squad boat,

then getting pulled under by the weeds

& needing rescuing in a canoe by the boatclub president

(huge thank you, to him)

Hmmm, no more outings on the bank for Popple when I'm on the river then...!!

Oh dear... wonder if she will be smart enough to be put off by that little experience?

They do pick their m oments don't they? I'm sure it hasn't put her off though.

O naughty Popple!! Glad she is ok though!!

LOL! A couple of months ago, you may remember, I rushed Popple to the vet, after she was stung in the eye by a wasp

The vet in his thick german accent said "the little dog, she will learn, she won't do that again...". I was skeptical

Last friday, had to rush her back to the vet (head & face like a rottie) with another sting.

The vet looked at her as I walked in and said "This little dog, she does not learn...!"

I was not surprised... Nor was I yesterday, when I saw her once again, trying to chase a bee.

It seems Pops is more of the "if at first you don't succeed...." mentality.

I don't think the former GB rower who was coaching us was very impressed....

Well she is part spaniel is she not?

Silly thing of me to say really, I own the dog that on the very day he came back from the vet from having his blockage op went straight back to the kitchen bin...

 

[Puppy]

Oh yes, she sure is half spaniel, but with terrier attitude

What was I thinking?!

 

[Spudlet]

ARGH that's a scary combo

*giggle* Silly Popple!
