The Damage Caused by Hounds

Yesterday the hunt came around the farm, hounds and horses everywhere! The Owner kept me in the office with him, out of the way, which I was more than a little relieved about. But going home last night, what destruction! All my weeing posts and tufts of grass etc. all wee'd up by hounds!

Well I didn't have enough on board (as it were) to put right all the damage. I did try but it was just a token effort. So at about four this morning I started taking on water and emptied the big dish The Owner puts down for me. When he got up, I resisted the temptation to go up the garden for the customary mini patrol and wee and instead took on more water. By about half past eight (our normal time of going to work) the pressure was getting quite intense but I took on more water to be sure and went and sat by the front door waiting. What was going on? He made himself a second cup of tea and sat down again! Why does he have to choose today to go in late? We eventually went in at half past nine and to be honest, walking was a little uncomfortable by then. But I persevered and just about managed to get all the damage put right, my territory is once again protected.
