GOOD DEEDS ARE NOT ALWAYS REWARDED...

Hi everydoggy,

My name is Canaille. I'm an English Springer Spaniel and Perky, this blog's owner, is my mum.

Today you know what? I'm a poor lonesome doggy.

I mean, I'm inside, Perky is outside, and the door is locked!

Actually, I think I'm punished.

Sometimes I deserve it. For example, I'm always  a bit peckish and before dinner I happen to nibble anything I can get my paw on*.

So, being punished for swallowing one of the bird seedballs was fair, even though digesting that stuff was punishment enough!

But today, nothing of the kind!

Perky was digging the flower-bed and I kept barking to tell her that she didn't need to tire herself out, cause I had not buried any bones or treats there (that poor girl doesn't have any flair!).

Then, you know what?

She just ordered me to keep quiet!

Keep quiet?? No way!!

I started barking louder to warn her that Daddy would not be happy with her, cause last time I dug a hole in the garden, he scolded me.

Well, Perky speaks dog quite fluently (I'm a good teacher), but sometimes it seems that my barkings are Greek to her.

So, to show her that I had already tested the ground and that there was no treasure hidden there, I decided to paw up and down*.

I did my best, even though the tulips, the daffodils and the carnations were tickling my paws.

And that's when Perky started shouting at me and before I could pee on the flowers to spare her the watering chore, she had dragged me back home!

And now here I am, locked in, with a bone to pick with Perky!

Could you be my champion and make nice comments about me?

Thanks in advance.

Have a pawesome* day!
