Steve's, Steph's & Spencer's Blog

Spencer’s sister has had many names from “Puppy” to “Lettice” (short for Luticia) but finally, aged 14 weeks, she is going to be called Olive – a lovely name let’s hope she likes it too!

Over the last couple of weeks Spencer has been trying to climb on our bed but he hasn’t quite been able to reach. Last night he decided to try something new – he ran from the side of the bed to the bathroom and back as fast as he possibly could ending in a giant leap for the bed. Much to my surprise he ended up right in the middle – with a very smug grin! We are now wondering if we can enter him into the high jump at the 2012 Olympics.

Spencer, has decided that his owners swing seat in the garden is not just for humans !!!!

I have had another trip to the vets today.

I knew someting was afoot, I literally made my owners drag me out of the house into the car.
When we got there another nice lady vet gave me the once over and said I looked healthy and well, then to my surprise a second later I felt a sharp jab in my neck…. my owners told me, I had my first Vaccination jab…. and all I got was a very small piece of biscuit as a reward.
I understand I’ve got to go back in two weeks time for the same treatment (mental note to self : keep teeth sharp for defence purposes .

The Vet then weighed me:
I now weigh 13.5Kg (an increase of nearly 4kgs in 3 weeks)

The Practice Nurse then filled in lots of paperwork and told me I was going to be ‘chipped’… now this was a BIG needle, but I only did a small OUCH as I don’t wont them thinking I’m a wuss. The nurse scanned me and up came my unique ID # on his scanner. I understand that this chip is so that If I ever get cheesed of at my current home (what with all these injections and all) and I run off, anyone that finds me can take me to a vet etc. and they will know who owns me ……doesn’t sound like a very good idea to me, but my owners do so I sometimes do what they say

The local vets I visit is Astonlee in Newport Pagnell, Bucks their website is here for anyone thats interested in getting jabbed by needles…. they are very good at this.
