And now for the GOOD news!!!

I took Mikey out first and all was fine. Wilson, already groomed and leashed, was taken out on our return. Well ... what an improvement that was!!! He wasn't half as interested to leap at people as he usually is and, when I told him not to disturb the 2 veterinary ladies walking an in-patient husky from the hospital, he left well alone. Even when he met a pair of Westies out in the lane, he did not misbehave.

Up in the avenue he actually sat before crossing the road ... and then, lucky puppy, he shot straight into the vet's practice, ahead of someone who had opened the door, and was given the treats he SOoooooooooooooo expects from there!!! No pee or poo in the street (but of course) but one cannot ask too much of this growing lad!!!
