Well Done, Sam!!

[Samsmum]

We were so proud of Sam this weekend.
We took the caravan to Dinerth Hall Camp Site, Rhos-on-Sea, on Thursday. It is a working farm, and it is a nice place to stay; large field for tourers and a smaller one for tents.
Sam had two good swims in the sea, and we had a couple of good drenchings, first south of Caernarvon, way off the main road, and near to an Air Museum and small airfield.
We had a picnic, and then Sam went in the sea, and thoroughly enjoyed himself.
Second time, was at Deganwy on Sunday, when he didn't exactly come out smelling of roses!!!
On Friday, we were sitting in the caravan, having a cup of tea, when we heard shouting. When we got to the door, there was the farmer's man with three Border Collies, and about 30-odd sheep. They ran into the Caravan field, with the dogs in hot pursuit, and obeying the farmer's commands, they guided the sheep out through the gate and down the lane beside the tent field and into the far field.
The whole time Sam stood besided us outside the caravan;
we told him to stay, and he did; he just stood with ears pricked and watched the collies manoevre the sheep, and not once did he make any effort to run after them.
On Saturday, we returned to the caravan late afternoon, and there were three hens drinking from Sam's water bowl.
We just told him to stay, and we all stood and watched the hens, and with eyes like chapel hat-pegs, and ears pricked, he watched their every move, but never attempted to run up to them.
We were so proud of him. If it had been our previous Golden, Meg, there would have been havoc!!! Instructions were for everyone but Meg!! So you can imagine our delight that Sam could restrain himself, though sorely tempted.
We couldn't wish for better. Thanks again Jan!!
