Purchase of the week...!
So strolling around pets at home is never really a good idea!
I went to buy some shrimp for my fish tank and what do I come out with... a pop up four way agility tunnel for the dogs! I seem to much prefer spending my time money on them than clothes shopping so didn't begrudge the £20 hehe (reduced from £35!!). I really wanted to get some agility type bits and bobs to make my own course in the garden so it was clearly meant to be when I saw it.
Anyhow when I got home Moll was so funny, I thought she might be nervous/scared of walking in (she got scared of a road sign recently, we have overcome this since...!) But nope walked in like it was normal to go through a four way tunnel lol Watson on the other hand was scared stiff and was very reluctantly tempted in by food. The complete opposite to the reactions I expected.
I don't have the money to take her to weekly classes (they were charging £15 for half an hour!), I would rather invest the money in buying our own kit and then maybe get a lesson or two.
I love love love buying dog toys!!!

When a lady "borrows" it doesn't have to be repaid... at least that was what I was told...

Re: Purchase of the week...!
I shall have to keep an eye open for one of those! I picked up a second hand childs play tunnel for Rolo, and he loves it.... to sleep in!!! He wanders inside and curls up... we have football cones and a few thick garden canes for jumps too, but it all uses far to much energy for him

Know what you mean!! I went to PAH on Sat. for cat food and cat litter and ended up also spending about £15 on the mutt. Put it on my own debit card so the OH wouldn't know.

I really cannot wait to get a bigger garden to be able to do this kind of thing for Rocky, I would rather spend the money on him too

Brilliant I can't stop spending money on Daisy either! It is her first gotcha day on Friday and I bought her an agility satrted kit from amazon (recommended by someone else on here) Can't wait to set it up and try it.
