Saffy - 11/10 - 9 Weeks Old

A very busy morning. We went for what was supposed to be a short walk to the field at the end of the road with Saffy and Dora. Saffy was much more confident out on the road today. She pretty much ignored cars going past but was a bit worried about a lorry. she moved away from the edge of the pavement and sat a nd watched until it had gone past and was out of sight.
When we got to the field we met a 7 month old Goldie and his owner so we stopped to say hello. Saffy quite liked the goldie who was very friendly. he wanted to play but was a bit rough so Saffy told him to behave. then another dog and owner came along so she said hello to him too. The goldie went home and we carried on into the field. Saffy followed Dora everywhere she went. Unfortunately Dora decided to push through the hedge into the golf course and Saffy dashed through straight after her. Luckily Dora came straight back when I called her and Saffy followed. Dora then went on the lead for a bit.
On the way home we met the post lady and stopped to say hello to her. The post lady commented on how Saffy seemed much more outgoing than Ruby when she was younger.


Tonight we went to dog club to sit in on the puppy class. The class started at the beginning of September so Saffy is a bit young for it. We have booked on to the next one but for now we can sit in on the class to get used to the hall and the dogs. Once again Saffy coped really well. at first there was a dog doing a lot of barking and that tends to worry Saffy but she soon learned to ignore it. She was happy to take treats. She loves cheese. and after 5-10 minutes had setttled down enough to play with her toys. Saffy said hello to several people including a young boy. She really liked him.

Saffy did have rather a bad experience when we got home as I made myself a cup of tea and put it on the floor for a moment while I cleared a space on the coffee table. Saffy came up to see what I was doing and put her nose straight in my cup. She sneezed and ran backwards shaking her head. Luckily it wasn't hot enough to burn her.
