Today we went on a picnic with a couple of friends at Marbury Park. We took Stark and he was so good, he didn't mither for food or steal any! He also went swimming in the lake, he goes out really far now and he adores it. It's really building up his fitness too. 

Paddling In The Lake:

Inspiration Of The Day: My cats watching a daddy long legs. Hilarious how entertained they are by something so simple.

Today was boiling in work! I think I was close to sweating all my new hair dye off?! But I have two days off now, so I'll try and keep out of the heat as much as possible. We took Stark to Lymm Dam for a walk this evening. We befriended a Labrador who shared her ball, they were both swimming after it in the water and Stark swam out further than he has before. Then we met two collie crosses then two German shepherds with an Akita.  I like Stark meeting other dogs as I want him to be friendly and capable of adapting to new situations. He's doing really well. 

Song Of The Day: Alkaline Trio - Private Eye

Reason: One of my ultimate favourite songs ever. 

Highlight Of The Day: A nice evening walk. 

Inspiration of The Day: Colour charts. Trying to decide what colours to paint our rooms with is definitely not a decision to be taken lightly!

Today we went on a walk with Stark to Lymm Dam and he learnt to swim! He watched another dog swimming in the water after a stick and started paddling in deeper water. He wouldn't jump in or go any deeper that his tummy but he was sticking his whole face under! We carried on our walk and found another place with a shallow slope into the water. After some more encouragement he finally started swimming after the sticks we were throwing to him! I was so proud! He's so clever and he was so brave to finally start swimming even though he was a bit scared at first. I can't wait to take him to a beach now. 

Song Of The Day: VNV Nation - Beloved

Reason: Awesome song! 

Highlight Of The Day: Being a proud puppy mummy! 

Inspiration Of The Day: Seeing how Stark can learn something so quickly even when he's so young.
