Mission Accomplished!

Finally completed the mowing with hardly a sound from my helper!
After yesterday's performance, I was dreading this chore. However, crating Hector in the garden made all the difference!
He watched from inside the crate whilst the mowing took place quite contentedly. With the occasional treat, he was safe in his crate and let out at intervals.
Problem solved!
Labradoodle George popped round for a little visit and chase in the garden afterwards and Hector was happy. So was I!
