Go on, describe the dog...
Saturday we acquired a second dog -
my wife having fallen in love with it through the pet shop window.
('It had been there too long and it's eleven weeks old, and I got a good
discount...')
Folly!
It is a caramel coloured labrador, male, and unexpectedly gentle and quiet.
Except when eating.
But dog number one, Lolita the aging labradoodle, is jealous.
We recommend the books on dog training by the great Michael Tucker.
When Lolita was an impossible pup a few months old, in desperation we took
local advice, phoned Tucker, and with a few one on one lessons he worked
miracles. His books are clear and almost as good as having the man himself.
He believes in Discipline as well as Love.
