Sulks and Postponements

TB is sulking - as much as a geriatric beagle of normally sunny disposition can sulk. Is not happy due to enforced energetic walks (several times a day) and consequently having very tired legs. Has taken to hiding when time for walkies comes round as it does all too frequently. Also is on a strict reducing diet. So is excessively hungry.

It came out to the allotment with Myself and TYK for a Rat Hunt but wandered off in search of sustenance (highly educated vocabulary) after a short while. The 2 of Us followed a little later as it was abundantly clear the rats were not coming out from the hedge or His compost heap. Discovered why not when He moved the chickens. Rats pinging in all directions. Big, fat, glossy well-fed rats. Myself looked for TYK to show it how to hunt them but it was nowhere to be seen. Didn't want to spoil the forthcoming lesson by alerting the rats to My intentions so left them alone and postponed TYK's instruction for another time.
