Pigeons, they are being sized up. From his side of the fence, he sits and stalks them, I think the pigeons are being far too casual in their disregard for Finlay, his time will come. Fair enough some of the wood pigeons are pretty much the same size as Finlay, but I've heard rumours that Balgay Tibbies can catch pigeons....I can't say I'm looking forward to that, but Finlay will most certainly give it his all.
We may actually have ourselves a ball chaser. Our previous two Tibbies couldn't care less about balls and fetch, they just never really got it. And yet Finlay not only knows what a ball is, he will both chase and fetch it (and of course chew it). I wonder if it is just a natural thing in some dogs and not in others.
There there are those fences, Finlay has never liked them. They prevent him from going where he wants to go, he has made it his mission to point out exactly where the weak points in our fencing are, constantly. He has gone over, under and eventually will go through. He really quite enjoys this area of life I think. The main borders of our garden are, we believe, pretty safe. The fencing we have installed is only there as a temporary measure to keep him from getting up to mischief, and he would most certainly get up to mischief. Everything must be chewed, tasted, crunched (including snails) and generally ripped to bits. It is funny to watch, but it is also a bit annoying.
This weekend will bring another puppy romp, so will report back on that in a day or two.
So close to that pigeon, one day Finlay, one day....
He's got his ball, and he knows what to do with it....
Down with all fences! He may look small and cute, but there really is some power in those back legs. It's really quite frightening, this beast we've taken on :-)
