Bramble's Trip Today!

Today Bramble had an outing to a soft play centre. It is important for Brambles socialisation that she goes to as many places as possible, so when our friends invited us to meet up with them at a local soft play centre I decided it would be the ideal opportunity to bring Bramble along for her first experience of soft play!

It went really well. As it is the Easter break there were lots of little children running about but Bramble is great with children and loves their company. She knows to be extra gentle with little babies, which is amazing, especially as the youngest in our house is 4. There was a particular toddler who loved her and kept coming up to pet her which Bramble took all in her stride.

At first when we arrived we went to sit down at one of the tables (and I'd tied Bramble's lead to it hoping she wouldn't do a "Marley"  :)) Initially a few people came over to see her but after a while she settled down under the chair and fell asleep.

She was sat in perfect view of the slides so she saw all the children sliding down and running around and playing. She was excellent.

About half way through our trip there I took her for a walk around nearby the car park, and she saw a tractor & a forklift truck. She wasn't too sure about them at first but as always, the treats came in handy, and helped her realise they were positive things!

Again, she did a clean walk, and I am really impressed with her. She's coming along so well in her training.

Back at home her latest thing is to play with her water bowl, sticking her paw in it and splashing about  :)!!
