Well I took Coco to the centre of a large village with lots of shops this morning, to experience people, dogs, vehicles etc. After a poorer start than I expected, he settled with streaming treats. I ran out quickly having underestimated his excitement, but I had prepared my first food-pouch of puréed sardines. They were a hit! They were pure magic, in fact. He settled to be manageable. BUT, I was concentrating so much on Coco, the distractions and the nozzle end of the pouch, I failed to notice the bottom of the pouch had opened up & I was merrily squeezing sardine mush all over the front of my jacket - yuck! Coco obligingly licked it all off. Fortunately I had freezer bag in my pocket to wrap around it. It wouldn't have looked good feeding him out of a poo bag! All afternoon at work I have been smelling sardines - I think it's just the smell up my nose - no one else has mentioned it....
Well done on the coat cleaning task . I think perhaps your work mates are very polite in not mentioning the sardine smell
