Tie a yellow ribbon ...

The Madwoman appears to be getting ready for May Day.

When we went to Tilley Farm recently our DogGodmother Sarah Fisher presented us with a length of special Yellow Dog Project ribbon to add to the frayed strands

already attached to our leads.

We feel that maybe the Madwoman has gone a little overboard with it ... we now have more bits of yellow ribbon attached than a May Pole. Maybe we should try and get into the spirit of the thing and try skipping and dancing around her legs next time we go out ...

This is us, out for a walk.

You'll notice there's a yellow ribbon tied to each of our leads.

This means that if you see us coming, please give us space - in our case it's because we're scared of other dogs, and don't appreciate strange mutts, no matter how friendly, running up and giving us kisses.

If you're a person, we quite like the kisses and being stroked - provided you've introduced yourself properly and politely first - and especially if you also have some roast turkey about your person that you'd like to give us.

But this doesn't apply to all dogs - some are scared of people too.

So look out for yellow ribbons - you can find out more about them and what they mean at the Yellow Dog Project HERE
