Normal Routines

Some days I just don't want to do the full walk. I have on occasion persuaded Vicki that it was time to head back. Today would not be one of those days. Today Vicki wanted the full walk and then some. She stops and sniffs every little corner or stops and chases her tail. Yesterday, I was running a bit late for walk time and she stood by the door in full pug-stance as if to say, "Okay c'mon lady I'm ready to go here." Routines are an important part of daily life and there is only one other routine that trumps walking for Vicki and that is feeding time. Very little room for deviation of that little routine and anyone listening to me preparing her food would think the poor thing was being pinched or poked. She squeals like a pig sometimes. I'm sure the neighbours know by now it's all part of the routine.
