I taught Silky

It was damp today.

Mummy took me and Silky out together but we didn’t go to the park because it would be too muddy for us, although I don’t mind at all being in the muddy place.

Anyway, when I looked outside this morning, I thought that it wouldn’t be a good day to go out so I decided to give Silky some lessons.  I know she has been learning many basic rules and things, but I think she should know about us, Shelties, too.

I turned on my laptop and googled “Sheltie”.  Let me see...what the hell!! There is too much information about Shelties and I don’t know which one is the best to look at, so I showed Silky “Wikipedia”. I read it out loud for her but it was a very big page and I was getting tired and Silky was getting bored.  Daddy, can you print it out for Silky please? No hurry, though.

And then, I showed her the picture of a Shelie in the book “Concise guide to Dog breeds”.  I think the Sheltie in the book is quite handsome but Silky said she would prefer a tri-colour boy.  Well, everyone to their own taste, don’t you think daddy?

Next, I showed a training book.  This is more for mummy and daddy but knowing what she is expected to do is good isn’t it?  Silky is a clever girl so if mummy and daddy teach her properly she will learn things quickly. It is up to you, daddy.

Finally, I opened my world map on the floor and told Silky where our ancestors came from.  Silky just said “Woof...”.  Well, on the map it is very near isn't it?  How long does it take from here exactly? 

Daddy, why don’t you take me and Silky to Shetland Islands this weekend?
