This morning my mother has tried to wear me out by taking me on my longest walk yet!
Her watch said 6.47 mile but with time off my lead mum thinks I’ve done about 9 or 10 mile 😂😂
The beach was so busy which meant I got to play with lots of other doggies. I often see mum shaking her head at me as I’m just a playful soul and expect every dog and hooman to instantly be my friend.
Some dogs are like me and want to play and others dogs are a bit grumpy like my dad 😆 Mum says I’m too playful and need to chill my beans a bit 🙄
Life too short to be chilling, live life to the fullest I say 🥰
Mum put me back in my lead when we went up Huntcliff so was banging on about being safe. We only walked halfway but next weekend she’s going to take me all the way to the top and to the Charm Bracelet.
When I got home I had a quick 30 second nap to recharge my batteries before helping dad do the gardening. Apparently he found a hole that’s been dug and guess what?! I only went got the blame for it 🤦🏽♀️
My favourite place in the whole wide world is the beach.
I just run and swim, then get to snooze when I get home.
I really do have the perfect life 🥰
When we were on our walk this morning Mum said as it’s a new month I should try and be good 🙄
I was like, excuse me Brenda I’m not like my sister! Have you ever seen me get a detention or be suspended from school? 😆
No you haven’t! So I’ll thank you to keep your suggestions to yourself!
Your boy Ted will continue to run around chasing birds at the beach, jumping on the trampoline, breaking poorly made toys, stealing shoes and slippers, pulling on my lead, trying to sneak upstairs, chewing the mats under your Lumi pod, practice my parkour skills off every bit of furniture because Mother this is what being a puppy dog is all about 🤣🤣
Park
Those blooming birds got me in trouble again this morning by enticing me into the park 🤦🏽♀️
I was 9 months old yesterday and my mum forgot to post about it, so I’m wondering if any kind family would like me instead as I can’t be that big a deal to her 🤣🤣
She did take my to the headlands this morning so I could run around like a loony 🤪
Loving my best life
When you have the best life ever 🥰
Running
Running is my most favourite thing to do 🥰
Abandoned
Abandoned!!!
That's right your boy little Ted has been abandoned by my mother!!
She's supposed to love, cherish, walk me and pick up my poop but oh no she swanned off to London!!!
Apparently she's doing some race down south called London Marathon, paw-sonally l've never heard of it so it can't be that big a deal 🤣
She's going to be away till very late on Sunday yet she abandoned me at 9:43 this morning... I mean how long does it take to run a marathon mother? Not the 60 hours you're leaving me for!!!
I heard her telling my naughty little sister that she going to the theatre to watch a show while she's there and is apparently looking forward to two night peace and quiet.
How very dare she l'm a good boy and I'm never any trouble
She did give me lots of fuss this morning, she wanted a selfie before she left but I just like to jump all over 😂
I'm going to miss her so much and she said she would miss me too 🥰
Next week I’ll be 8 months old, I’ve finally managed to go down steps without being scared.
I’ve even managed to come down the stairs at home without being picked up. Although mum doesn’t want me going up the stairs in the first place 😆
Beach
Its always about having fun at the beach 🥰
Sun run
6:50am and I was at my favourite place running around like a loony 🥰
The sun is out and it’s a long weekend which means more time at the beach 😎
I was subjected to a pavement walk this morning 😮 You read that correctly… a pavement walk!
Can some paw-lease call the RSPCA or Esther Rantzen as your boy Ted loves his walks on the headlands or the beach.
You would think my own mother, who might I add is supposed to love and adore me, would know that running wild on the headlands and the beach are my favourite places for her to take me 🤷🏽♀️
And you would never guess her reasoning for taking me on a pavement walk?! It was raining and she didn’t want to clean up the mess… well excuse me Brenda, but do I tell you that you can’t go running on the trails with all this rain we’ve had? No I don’t as I know trail running makes you happy!
You come back home covered in mud and your trail shoes have to be washed but does anyone complain and say you have to run road? No they don’t!
I’m not one bit paw-leased by her double standards. Then to insult me further she gives me a treat when we get home… I mean I ate it and it was delicious but I know her game, she’s trying to keep me sweet so I don’t report her!
But what’s a cute little puppy dog to do about this situation?
Cold walk
Mum wasn’t feeling the love this morning, she was complaining that someone keeps turning winter on 😆😆
It doesn’t matter what ever the weather is as I just love running around having fun 🥰
Starving
My mother is starving me! Little Ted the so called love of her life, the one who she apparently adores 🤷🏽♀️ If this was true then my food bowl would be overflowing with kibble.
But as you can see by the fluff on the carpet, I’ve had to resort to cannibalism and eat one of my bears 😆
I’ve been playing with my food bowl and walking around with it in my mouth trying to prompt mum to feed me early as I’m feeling snackish 😆
But she said it’s not my teatime yet!
That’s ok for her to say as I’ve seen how snackish she’s been today, she wolfed down a full nougat bar without a care in the world 🐷 and she didn’t log it on MFP 🤦🏽♀️ oh and a few maltesers 😆
Would it harm her to just give me my tea a little earlier? Dad would if he was home!
Isn’t life just amazing, I get to run about without a care in the world 🥰

It was another beach walk this morning but guess what my mother has just said?!
She might not be able to take me to the beach tomorrow as she’s just cleaned the house and doesn’t want sand everywhere!!
Who do I ring to complain as she’s supposed to love me more than she loves a tidy house 🤷🏽♀️

Ted
Yesterday mum bought me my very first harness, we walked down to the square for a visit to Nibblers pet shop so I could try a few on.
I was what you’d call hyper and was jumping all over, not listening and tried to bite all the harnesses. I’ll hold my paw up and say is wasn’t my fault, you see all those smells of delicious doggy treats sent my senses into overdrive so I couldn’t concentrate properly 😂
Anyways after trying a few on I still hadn’t calmed down so when we got one that fitted mum just paid the lady I walked home wearing it 😆
Little did I know that this harness is going to be my adventure harness and I’m only to wear it on the trails and not on normal walks… let’s see how long that lasts 🙄
This morning I found out what I needed the harness for as me and mum went up Huntcliff, it’s the first time that my little paws have been on the trails and I loved it, just like mum said I would.
There’s so many new smells to sniff and the views are just so beautiful, but most of all I got to spend lots of time with mum in her happy place 🥰
She said now I’m nearly 6 months old I’m going to be her walking training buddy for Lakeland and that we are going to be doing lots and lots of hilly walks together 🤦🏽♀️
I was like ‘Brenda I don’t see my name on the entry list so you need to up your game and not rely on me’ 😂
I mean I will do this walks with her but she also needs to train herself.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, it wasn’t my fault!
The birds entice me with their flappiness and because I’m a working dog and it’s inbuilt I chase them. It’s in my nature just as eating sweets is in mums nature 😂
Anyways mum took me to the beach with Dotty dog and her mum. I was a little angel running all over having the time of my life. Playing with other dogs and interacting with their pawrents as you never know they may have treats in their pockets to share with the best little puppy dog ever.
I kept running to the sea getting my paw wets, it was so much fun but I’m not sure how mum goes sea dipping every week as it was very very cold 🥶
Then this bird whispered that he wasn’t to play chase and because it’s a fun game I chased him. I was running in circles after him, then running away from mum. Well let me tell you Mum wasn’t best pleased with me as apparently I was ignoring her commands to come back 🙄 what she didn’t understand was that I was listening to her but I was so engrossed in playing with my new bird friend that I selected what I heard 🤦🏽♀️
But then so much for birdy being my friend as he then flew off over the sea, this is when things went wrong as I still chased after him and before you know if I was in over my head, literally 🤪
I had my hoodie on too and it was soaking 🤦🏽♀️ I made a hasty retreat back to mum with my tail between my legs and held my paw up to apologise. She quickly took off my hoodie and said I looked like a drowned rat… I mean what a mean thing to say to me!!
After all that running about I was a little bit tired so didn’t stray too far from mum for the rest of the walk 😆 on the way home I got covered in mud from going up the horse track, my little paws and under my belly was so dirty.
But worse was to come when we got home as mum insisted I had a bath. I pleaded with her to spare me another soaking but she wasn’t having any of it. I was dump
