I'm fast reaching the stage where I'm becoming disenchanted with pets!! Todays episode occurred when I had a friend drop in to see me. We sat chatting over a cuppa, and the dog, as she does, landed on my lap, then eventually took up her usual position squashed down beside me in the arm chair. (She was trained young to always leave room on the lap for a lace pillow!)
The doorbell rang - someone bringing a book to my DH, who was out, so I dealt with the chap at the door. When I returned to my chair, I immediately found I had a wet bottom. Dog got thrown outside...fast! I don't know if it was "leakage" whilst she sat squashed in beside me, or whether she decided to squat there instead of asking to go out whilst I was at the door. After my friend left a couple of minutes later, I had to go and change: my slacks, pants, woollen tights (remember its winter here!)and shirt with long tail all were wet. How much longer can a 14 year old dog live???!! I love her dearly, but I am starting to think she's going senile.
