This week marks the end of summer holidays for Scot, and for Lucky that means the beginning of a new daily drill.  His week will be full of routine, which all dogs love, and very early starts with lots of activity.
   Yesterday, he was at work with me all day, which is where he will be each Monday.  We've been to the shop together before, and he likes it.  Friendly people who love dogs are coming and going all day long, and he gets to spend as much time as he likes looking out of the window, down to all of the Edinburgh Festival action below.

         


   He doesn't have windows like this at home, and he seems to enjoy the views.  We also rode in a taxi, which was a new experience.  He's always been brilliant in the car, and the taxi was no problem for him.

                                  Smoking, eating, drinking: no.  Lovely dogs: yes.


   Today, he's back at Citidogs (slogan, 'exceptional care for exceptional dogs'; quite) for a day of playing with his friends.  He travelled there with his friend Pam in the 'bark and ride' van, which he practised getting into and out of last week.  He'll be back there on Friday, out to 'Gramma and Pop' in North Berwick for the day tomorrow and every Wednesday, and with me all day on Thursdays, which is now an additional day off for me.  Don't you think that sounds like a cool week for a lovely big boy?
