More Finlay ball playing antics....

This time with a full-size football! He came across an abandoned football in our local park, even though it isn't much smaller than him, he decided it was time for a kick around.

How a 4 month old pup with a small mouth manages to grab hold of a football I don't know, but he does. Clearly he is very pleased with himself.....



I said I'd report back on the puppy romp from last Saturday, well it didn't go entirely to plan. Finlay was excluded for a short period for being too much of a hooligan. When he goes off to play he plays a bit rough and goes totally deaf. The dog trainers are adamant he needs to change his ways and I can see their point (they are erring on the side of caution).....but what is a 4 month old puppy to do when let loose in a field full of other puppies?! It is a tricky one, when there are no distractions he will come when called pretty much 100% of the time. But not at puppy romp. I think it is a matter of time, he'll get there, but he isn't ready yet. It was a stressful time for us, but Finlay loved it. We'll probably go again this coming Saturday, so look out for another thrilling episode of "Finlay annoys the dog trainers" :-)
