Alfie's first holiday camping :)

Summer holiday!! 

Well Alfie went on his first holiday in a tent the other weekend and what fun he had. Before we went we put the tent up in the garden so Alfie could get use to what it looked and smelled like. I thought he would find it a bit daunting as it is quite big but just like Alfie he wasn't bothered. We went in side snifter it and that was it. We left it up so he could get use to it. 

As we have never been camping with a dog before, we found it hard to find a space for Alfie to sit. We though we would have enough room as we were only going for the week. Oh no the car was full and poor Alfie only had a little room on the back seat, but he was amazing curled himself into a little ball and fell asleep. Note to self roof rack for next time or take less. :) 


Traveling down was a nightmare stuck in holiday traffic 4 hours it took :( Look at my little mans face, I no I keep saying it but he is brill, he is so patient. 
We put the tent up and put Alfie on a long line that is screwed in to the grass. Alfie loved walking around the tents and lying on the grass. 




We then went to the beach at Weston Super Mare and he went paddling in the sea and had so much fun, though he does not like the waves.




Paddling with dad
After been at the beach all day he slept the whole night till the next day. We worn him out :) 


 An evening stroll after a thunder storm which again didn't bother him head stuck his head out if the tent and watched the rain come down. I think this is down to letting him experience lots if sound and different things from such a small age and not making a big deal of things if there was a loud bang or something. 

Then back to the beach to finish off our holiday on Brean Sands. Found out that he love horse poo :( that is not so good. Alfie has started to lye down if he sees another dog walking pass, looking all cute and as soon as they get closer enough pounce at them in playful mode like come and play. Poor dog pops themselves.
