Pip!

JR went to a midday Pilates session for a change, so had a morning just busying herself, doing things - even popping to the supermarket - and declared that she ‘got much more done when she didn’t go to the gym’.

Pip arrived about 10am, and he and Archie just hung out and generally ignored each other. His mum is absolutely delighted with this relationship - Pip isn’t good with any other dog! We sat in the sun in the front garden when Abi came back, Hazel was also here for a coffee, and the two dogs just stood around, gazing out the gate at people passing and not one bark or even a muffled WOOF passed their lips. Abi was amazed, as Pip is quite aggressive at anyone passing his own gate. 

In the afternoon JR took Archie for a big walk. Ice cream was involved. In fact, coffee and a cinnamon bun was involved too, and a bun was brought back for me.

I was going to take him out again later, but the expected rain did eventually arrive, so I got a reprieve.I’ve done all of 2,931 steps today… 

Note to self: Must make a better effort tomorrow.
