ArbDogs? Pics!

[Doug Tait]

Me and wee Poppes went to collect her mum from the airport, there's a big carvery place nearby I stopped to let the dog out. Walking alongside the building on the verge and I could see the place was packed. The dog could obviously smell they had a fire exit door open a crack, so off she popped, under the fence and through the door before I realised it.

 

So I jumped the fence, threw the door open and burst in shouting her. She was off though, I ended up playing chase around the restaurant with random kids giggling and pointing "here! it's here!". Fortunately she went behind a bar where I cornered her. I scooped her up ending her hunt for the nexus of meat and retreated, apologising to all that would listen, back toward the fire exit. We left to what felt like a rumble of ridicule, but I'll call it a standing ovation. Met the oh outside who obviously thought I was a dick and wanted to know why I'd taken the dog in the fire exit in the first place.

 

Another great hobby she's taken to is sentry duty at the neighbours cat flap. Operation Persecute, with the aim of repressing all enemy patrols.

Age has indeed brought the cantankerous side of her character to the fore.
