OK - so ts been a busy 1st week at the Lodge - trying to train my new Mom n Dad! They're getting the hang of me though...I've been on a trek 'down the meadow' & paddled in a tiny brook, chased chickens, helped my Mom do some gardening. I've had lots of snoozes

 &  rough & tumbles with Erik (who usually lets me 'win').

I can put my paws up onto the sofa to tell Mom n Dad to 'hoike' me up onto the fluffy blanket & I can go up AND down the deck steps - but the house stairs are too much for me at the mo.

I've had an egg mmmmmmnnnn & a marrowbone. Time for another snoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooozzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Dad sez I'm the worlds most chilled flattie!
