This boy is a nutter!

Games
Everyone knows this boy is a nutter when it comes to games. He was just obsessed with tennis balls as usual and chased anything that moved.

Walks
Mali got out each day with someone different for his adventures around Yarraville. His favourite walking buddy was Bona and got on with him beautifully.

Naps
Mali was really wiped out from the heat this weekend so did a lot more sleeping than he normally does.

General Observations
Hangin' out with some new and different faces this weekend and bonding even more with the usual weekenders he knows. He was really well behaved and unusually calm because of the heat.

W.W.F. Smackdown

Games
Fergus is Mali's mate and they love having fun together. Loads of WWF Smackdown action today.

Walks
Mali was so excited to go for a walk today, I had to check my arm was still attached! He couldn't be stopped as he took to the streets of Yarraville, checking out the smells and keeping an eye out.

Naps
It was a very noisy night, some idiots next door kept everyone awake- I think he will sleep today.

General Observations
Some great fun with Fergus his kelpie pal and another big player called Paws. The trio of trouble had a great tug of war and loads of chasing games.

Kerri who?

Mali's real mum returned from Singapore for a 5 week visit last Thursday and his reaction was interesting to say the least. Mali had not seen his mum for a whole year and gave up looking for her or reacting to her name months ago!

First he was happy that there was a visitor, then he realised he knew this person, then he realised the person was Kerri and then he showed more than appropriate joy at her actually being HERE!

Mali isn't normally known for his intelligence, but the thought process he went through when Kerri was at the door was brilliant!

Both Mali and myself look forward to spending time with Kerri while she's here and we both hope she'll come back quicker next time.

A Huge Attitude

Games
Mali loves playing outside with the other dogs and chasing tennis balls is his favourite game. He always beats the other dogs.

Walks
Mal takes a little time to settle down but once he does, he is a dream. He loved walking out in the sunshine and loved all the other dogs we met.

Naps
Mali has a mat all sorted out right at the front of the pen so he can sleep but also see EVERYTHING that is going on.

General Observations
Mali is a great dog with a huge attitude. He is outgoing and happy to play with anyone. He loves tennis balls and jumping and also loves a cuddle! He is sooo fast and he loves winning too.

Like a Rocket

Morning and Afternoon Walks

Mali couldn't contain his excitement as we headed out for some walking! He and Coco Chanel had a great time checking out what Yarraville was up to!

Indoor and Outdoor Playtime

Mali was out that door like a rocket!
He had a great time playing with all his mates as they ran around chasing balls all over the place! Lots of fun for Mali.

Snooze

Mali had a rest after all that activity, but it wasn't long before he was at it again!

Was I Good Today?

Mali had a great day playing with all his mates at DC. Always a good time had with lots of energy used up!

In The Quiet Corner

Morning and Afternoon Walk

Mali was very very excited to get out today, so excited that he ended up walking me instead!
He is a very strong boy!

Indoor and Outdoor Playtime

A fair amount of exercise was spent today and a few good lessons learnt about barking for attention. He was very good and quite responsive to a moment of reflection in the quiet corner. He just fell asleep for a bit.

Was I Good Today?

Mali was a scallywag but at the same time was totally playful and very adorable.
