Silly puppy jumping up

I'm three and a half years old. I haven't been a puppy for ages and when I've been out on my walks I haven't done any of my 'silly puppy jumping up' for ages.


OMG! I'm not sure what was wrong with me today but I was really hyper and bouncy and I 'jumped up' at loads of people this morning. Ann was really, really, cross with me. It was like................. everyone I saw said how pretty I was or wanted to talk to me so I took that as an invitation to 'jump up' at them. In fact my 'silly puppy jumping up' was so bad that Ann threatened to put me back on my lead. I didn't care. We walked past Blackford Pond and then down into the Hermitage and I knew that I'd be going back onto my lead when we got to the end of the Hermitage anyway.


The thing is....................... I'm such a sociable little collie pup that I want to say 'hello' to everyone. I just want everybody to be my best friend.


On the one hand, Ann is really pleased that she's raised such a friendly little doggie. On the other hand, she's annoyed with herself for not being able to train me to keep all my paws on the floor!!!
