Pepper was in Alva…

Last Saturday was the first day that Pepper was allowed to be outside so we decided to take him to Alva to see grandma and granddad. Pepper was exceptional well-behave puppy and grandma and granddad seemed to love him. Dad said he could notice the different between yesterday and the last fortnight when they went to our house with their French friends. He said Pepper hardly jumped on him. We also met Marian, their neighbour. Mum told Marian about Pepper and Marian told mum to let her know if Pepper is in Alva because she would like to come to see Pepper. After that we went for a little walk along the park. It was quite a long walk for Pepper. We met one dog named Glen. He is a lot bigger than Pepper. Pepper was so good with Glen. They sniffed at each other. I gave some of Pepper’s treats to Glen. After we came back and Pepper went to sleep on the floor in the lounge. HG and I sneaked out for shopping in Stirling left Pepper with grandma and granddad. We went to Pet shop and bought more toys and blanket for Pepper. When we came back we noticed that the bag we left for his #2 had gone, so it meant he did his #2 with granddad. Granddad said Pepper had a little walk and met a very big dog which he can walk underneath that dog and they both fine with each others.

We have some problems about walking Pepper this week. First of all was about the weather. It was raining very heavily on Monday and the weather forecast said it would be raining more during the week. I decided to make Pepper a raincoat. It was a handmade raincoat with love from me. I put it on once when we went outside for a first walk on Monday. He was ok with it but he looked like a fire brigade to me. I emailed his photos to HG and HG laughed so much. Second of all was about his resistant. He did not seem to like to go to the wood. He did not pull but sat and resisted. He also wanted to go to Taggie’s house. If we walked pass her house, he always pulled me there so hard. I have to try harder about loose leash walking with him. I stopped every single time he pulled then he stopped and sat down and whined. I really hope he would get the message that if he did not pull it would be faster to get to where he wanted.
