Day 1 - I didnt sign up for this: Part 2

So, I left off talking about night time.

My new parents, D & C, thought that wearing me out before bedtime was a good idea and that I would then 'sleep' through the night.

We played the one game I'm good at. Fetch the Pheasant ------->>>
This was fun, because it meant I got lots of praise for essentially doing what is natural to most Spinone's. D&C are a bit 'special' I think.


Anyway, I digress.

Night time comes, I eat, I poop and I wee and then I am carried upstairs and put into my 'bed'. It is very comfy with a hot water bottle cunningly disguised in a Bagpuss teddy (I think D&C think that I think it's another puppy. I'm not a labrador, I'm not stupid).

So I cry and cry for half an hour and they ignore me.

How. Very. Dare. They.

So I went to sleep. 'Tough' I thought to myself, 'I'm not playing with them now'.

2am - I need a wee and the blonde one gets up and takes me out.
2.01am - I don't do any wee's outside. It's raining.
2.02am - I wee on the kitchen floor.
2.03am - I start to squat - the blonde one (now resembling a yeti in a 'chav coat' takes me outside.
2.04am - I get stage fright and can't go.
2.05am - I poo on the kitchen floor.
2.06am - I drink some warm milk.
2.09am - I can't settle and need a cuddle. I fall asleep and am put back in the cage.

4am - I need a wee and the dark haired one gets up this time. (I notice the blonde one has to dig him in the ribs though).
4.01am Outside for a quick wee and back to bed.
4.03am - 4.15am I whine and whine and whine.

6am - Time for another wee, which I do without incident.
6.02am back to bed and I whine and whine until 7am, when D&C finally get their lazy butts out of bed.

All in all a productive night.
