West End Boy

Today Hamish came to work with me in the West End for the first time in ages. Along the way we met Andrea and Radio who walked with us along the canal to Islington. Hamish and Radio were very, very happy to see each other after about 10 days apart. Ross was very pleased to see Andrea and Radio too. We miss our walks with them when they're not around.
Earlier in the week Hamish was in Hyde Park for the first time when we went to see a nice new vet near there. Hamish went to have blood tests but he wouldn't allow them to do it and cried and howled a lot. We will need to sedate him next time. Oh dear!
Never mind he had a good sleep on our bed when he got home.
Shhhhhhhhhh! Now, now steady on Red Girls he's only getting comfy.
Still always the cute puppy when he wants something....He likes coming to work with me cos he gets to help out in the kitchen which always smells soooooooo delicious.The daffs are out in St. James's Park and it's really uplifting that it was still light when I took him out of the office for the afternoon walk.

Going Quackers in St. James's Park

Some days I take Hamish to work with me in Covent Garden. He gets to meet lots of new people and gets huge amounts of attention. A bit too much perhaps as now he occasionally can't even be bothered to wag his tail when yet another stranger wants to say hello. Maybe this is just a sign of him getting a bit more grown up and calming down? He loves it when it's cold enough for the fire to be on so he can lie down in front of it, and I must say he does look very 'to the manor born'. Funnily enough he's always quite well behaved in my office and generally lies down and guess what...sleeps for the first 3hrs. Then he gets a bit frisky and plays with some toys for a while until I can stop to take him out to St. James's park and occasionally if I 've got time to Green Park which is better for letting him off the lead (no ducks and the like).
Hamish is now more interested in the water-foul in St. James's park. He shows no aggression, so I really don't know if he just wants to say hello to them like he would another dog - or cat even, but he did try to squeeze through the fence, then to squeeze under it until I had to drag him away disappointed - sorry wee fella.





Here he is posing in front of Buckingham Palace.


You got to grab some water when you're on the go.
