#WillowTheSprocker is now 5 months old and proved her #spaniel genetics today by trotting up to me carrying a dead duck in her mouth while we were walking along the canal. She looked so proud of herself, the duck swinging by its neck as she ran around with it.
This did wonders for my #necrophobia, obviously. Not.
All the work we’ve been doing on “drop it” was completely useless when I really really really needed it to work. Apparently a real dead duck is far more exciting than the toys we’ve practiced with, and much more appealing than the treats I had with me too.
So that’s walks along the towpath off the agenda for a while then.
(I do feel I need to qualify that she didn’t actually kill the duck. The poor thing was long dead before she found it.)

Like butter wouldn’t melt.

This is what progress looks like.
#WillowTheSprocker is not trying to maul, chase, or otherwise harass Benedict Gingercat. (In this one precise moment.) She is learning “leave it” and “calm”.
It’s for her own safety, honestly. Ben is a #MaineCoon cross and is bigger than the #puppy. For now.
It should also be noted that Ben is being a complete dick about it all and doing such things as drinking out of the dog’s water bowl - I’ve had him for 9 years now and he has NEVER drank out of a bowl before now - and sitting on whatever piece of furniture is above where the dog is lying, dangling his tail down and wafting it in front of the dog to make her want to chase it. Dog gets reprimanded and cat strolls away. Smirking.
