Pavlov's Revenge

Dear Poppy,

Have you ever heard of Dr Pavlov.  He was this horrible, horrible Russian scientist who invented dog training.  He discovered the tricks the two-legs use for manners and stuff.  He used bells to trick his dogs into thinking they were going to be fed.  Well ha ha, I have trained my two-legs with bells.  They put bells by the door so that I can ring them when I need to go outside.  Well guess what, whenever I ring them Puppaw gets up and takes me out for fun.  It is especially cool right now as we had lots of white rain, which I especially like.

I have discovered that if I ring the bells Puppaw is afraid I will go to the loo inside so he jumps right up.  (Mummy is not quite their yet.)  So this is what I do.  If I am bored, or not getting enough attention I go and ring the bell.  I can actually hold myself for quite sometime but I like going outside every 40 minutes or so.  I ring the bell and arunning comes Puppaw.  He is working from home today because of the white rain which means I am getting a lot of attention.  He, however, is less than happy.

Its great.  It goes like this.  I sleep.  I wake up.  I whine.  I go downstairs.  I jump on the ottoman.  I get bored.  I whine more.  Puppaw ignores me.  I ring the bell.  I get attention.  That Dr Pavlov was really quite brilliant.

You should get some bells.  That will teach your mummy.

Love and licks
