An interesting day
Yesterday, we went to Tewkesbury to see Michael and Andrew who are on holiday there this week. We went to the Malverns and visited the Malvern Hills Hotel for lunch in between some walks. These are the great panoramic views from British Camp (or Herefordshire Beacon). 
After Choral Evensong in the Abbey, we went to this dog-friendly pub - Haw Bridge Inn and I got a great welcome.
There's a BIG river there, but I couldn't get down to it (boo-hoo!). I had to wait until I got back to Tewkesbury.

A lot has happened
A lot has happened since my last entry.
I had my second training class on Wednesday at the Dog Training Club. I disgraced myself because I was so excited and Daddy hadn't walked me long enough after tea! Anyway, the trainers were very understanding and I had a great time. I was taught to walk closely to heel on a lead amidst all sorts of distractions and that is what I will be doing on a lot of my future walks. I think I must be doing quite well because today a neighbour said I was well-trained!
Jeanette says that I need 3 or 4 walks of 20 minutes each per day, maybe one of which can be off the lead. No leaping. My joints will not set until I am 7-9 months old. Swimming will be good for me.
On Thursday, I had a day with Auntie Avril and Uncle Roland while Daddy went gallivanting off to the Malvern Hills. That would have been way too far for me. I got to go to Whale Wharf at Littleton-upon-Severn and I think I was good, but I would say that wouldn't I?
I had a lie-in this morning after some energetic games last night. I love playing chase, sometimes I do the chasing and sometimes I am chased - great fun. I am actually quite tired today.

Scared
I was scared of a noise something like this horse on this morning's walk! I pulled all the way up the Bridle Path. I kept looking back but I couldn't see what it was. It didn't follow us thank goodness. I forgot all about it until Daddy did this blog for me.
We had a visit from Barking Mad Amanda when Daddy registered me for possible holidays in future.
The morning ended on a high note as I was invited to Auntie Avril & Uncle Roland's for coffee. I am really looking forward to Thursday's visit when they said they will be taking me to Westonbirt Arboretum while Daddy is going to the Malverns for a long walk.
