It is Dog Pilling Day!

Every six weeks in the Falklands, dogs have to go to the V.E.T.s at the Agricultural Department and take some pills -with cheese if you are lucky!-

Some dogs do not like it, but I like Dog Pilling Day as I get to see Sarah and Joe AND get to eat some cheese (my favorites!)

This morning I was asleep dreaming Basset dreams -in my indoor kennel that I brought all the way from England (it is so cosy)- When my dad woke me up early!

At first I hoped that he would just go away!

But he just would not let me sleep

But then I thought perhaps I could stir myself as he said it was PILLING DAY!

But as usual I had to wait a long while before it was time to go

Then we went to see Sarah and Joe at the V.E.T.'s. They said that I am growing into a big dog and made a great fuss of me.

This is Sarah giving me my cheese!

Is that more cheese I can smell?

I like pilling day, I can't wait until the next one!
