MY PUPPY PANCAKE !!! - Week 5

In a couple of days I am getting a pit bull from my Uncle Spencer.   
It is going to be 6 weeks old.

It is going to be a brown dog with a bit of blue, we might get two but if we don’t we will get one. I hope he gives us two, but it will be hard to look after two. 
This is what you need to do to look after a puppy:

1. Make sure every morning that they have water and food.

2. Give them a dog wash every Saturday - make sure you have dog wash first.

3. Play tricks  

4. The first thing to do is go to a pet shop about 1 week before you buy them because then you get a lot  of time to get toys and food ready.

~1~ Get a tugging toy

~2~ Get a chewy pig's ear

~3~ Do not forget that you need a buy a  little suit (but make sure it is cute)

Super Hero Day

What a great day we had at school on Friday because we all dressed up as a

super hero from a book or a character. My super hero was a bat cat,  my super power uses a whip so if you are a baddie she can whip you with it.  
It will leave a red line across your butt.
Henrietta won the compertion for the best costume, she came as a lady who is a surfer and she got her arm bitten of from a shark and she is still helping kids to love the water. I thought that she would come first anyway.
