I'M ONE YEAR OLD!

It was my Birthday yesterday! I'm one year old!

I got the present from Val like she had promised, it's great! The drinking section is attached to the bottle, you only have to open it, tip it upside down and Ta Daah! Lovely water!

It has come in really handy already as the weather has been hot again this week and my tongue gets a little dry when it drags along the floor!

Azzy got me a great big ham bone so I spent most of the day lay in the sun in the back garden merrily chewing away.

She had also got me a chocolate fudge cake (actually I think that was more for her and Little'Un and she was just using my Birthday as an excuse to eat cake, as she told me it wasn't very good for me to be eating chocolate! )

Mind you, she did allow me a little piece and some cakey leftover crumbs after I had eaten my dinner. Yum!

When is it Christmas?

Slavers and licks to you all.
Love from Max

NEW HARNESS AND LEAD!!

Whoopeee! I got a new harness and lead today.

I had almost chewed through my other lead as it was only sort of nylon but this new one has a big silver chain so I can't chew through it, although I keep trying to jump up and chew the leather strap that Azzy holds!

My old harness wasn't very good as it was all in one long piece threaded through a metal buckle so if I pulled too much it would either tighten round my chest or round my neck and Azzy was constantly having to stop and slacken it.

This new one is good and solid and it's padded!

I like it a lot better as it doesn't get tight when I do pull but I must admit I am walking to heel a lot better now, it's only when I see other dogs or cats that I pull.

It's my Birthday next Tuesday, I will be one year old, the ladies at school have already said they will get me a present. I know Val (the lady who gave me the enormous bones from the butchers) has already said she has got me a special drinking bottle, Azzy had been saying she needed one. It is one of those that has a fold out drinking section already attached rather than her having to carry both a bottle and a bowl.

I heard Azzy tell Little Female she is going to do the same as she used to do with Sally her last dog, she is going to wrap my presents and let me unwrap them myself! Yipeee!

It seems she did that with Sally from when she was little and Sally used to love her Birthday and Christmas, she would get so excited at all the presents and couldn't wait to be given hers so she could rip them open and play with the toys or eat the treats inside!

Can't wait for next Tuesday!!!
