Five year old Taylor did these things yesterday:

1. Eat: he had his usual two bits of toasted grain bread as a breakfast treat; he had his usual Eukanuba biscuit around 12 noon and for dinner he had a few small pieces of raw broccoli, a few slices of cooked carrot, a slice of roast chicken, some diced cooked ox heart, half a cup of ProPlan Adult Lamb and Rice and half a cup of ProPlan Performance Chicken and Rice.

2. Play/exercise: He had a eight minute toilet walk around the block at 9.30am and at 2.30pm Taylor, my wife and son had an hour long walk or so on a local river trail with Taylor off-leash. At six pm he went into a frapping mood and got chased in the lounges and up and down the stairs, grabbing a toy along the way for some throws and catches. At 10.30pm he had a five minute toilet walk.

3. Sleep: He slept in my son's room in foregoing his bed beside me in my room.

4. Say: When surrounded by three German Shepherds at the start of the river trail walk, he told them to scram. And when they did he raced after them shouting all the way.

5. See: Along the river trail he met quite a few dogs and was polite and social with them all apart from one of the German Shepherds who was very unruly and one small dog on a leash who has an aggression problem. He met twin toddlers who gave him big hugs. He met a Pomeranian-cross on his 10.30pm toilet walk and both wanted to play but it was a little late at night for that.

6. Special place: the river trail area which meant a three minute drive in the car to get to.

7. Three=four minute groom.
