Yesterday we all went up to Middlesborough to see my Uncle. It was a good trial run to see how Brandy & Brinkley managed on a long trip in the car prior to our drive to Spain. It was a 2 hour trip each way and apart from a short stop so they could stretch their legs on the way up, there wasn’t a murmur from them. They slept all the way home and it’s looking good for our drive to Spain.
While we were visiting, the pups behaved themselves beautifully, they really are very good when we take them visiting. Unfortunately, my uncle is not used to having dogs in the house, so when the smoke alarm went off while he was cooking dinner he opened the back door – normal reaction. Hey, ho – Brinkley spotted the opening and he was off before anyone could stop him.
Off down the drive to the pavement where fortunately he heard me call him and turned to look back. Just for a minute I thought he was going to head off down the road as he started to run in front of next door, so I called him a few more times and I breathed a huge sigh of relief as he made a huge U-turn, ran across the neighbours lawn and back up the drive to me, tail wagging.
He has never been out without a lead before so I wasn’t sure what he would do, but I was so pleased to see him come running back up the drive. No harm done!
