24th May 2006 - Cutting dog poo out of fluffy rugs - Nice!!

So, I've spent the last two days showing Victoria from 'It's Me or the Dog' just how naughty my dogs are. She's told me and my dad off for feeding the dogs at the dinner table and she's rolled her eyes at Paddy eating off a fork (it's not my fault he's so clever!). All in all it's been a manic few days but I am loving every second of it.

A few years ago I did a show for ITV called the Animal Road Show. I took Paddy, Tommy and Bean with me to a day out for dogs. During the day a dog trainer came over and asked if Paddy would take part in the dog assault course. I said "yes" but that he wouldn't jump over anything or do any silly stunts. He's a bulldog at the end of the day and bulldogs aren't exactly agile! Anyway, cut a long story short, this dog trainer guy got the hump with me AND Paddy because he wouldn't jump over anything. He shouted at Paddy and shouted at me saying "force him to do it!" I lost my rag with him and said that I refused to force him to do anything he didn't want to do. He's not made to run around and jump and having never done it before, I didn't blame him for being confused and not liking the whole experience. I ended up rowing with the guy, who thought that Paddy should be forced into doing jumps, and ever since I've been very wary of having a dog trainer come to the house. I don't want my dogs shouted at or forced to do things they don't like. Victoria however is a different kettle of fish. She loves dogs as mush as I do and only wants what's best for them. I think she's the absolute best at what she does and I have wanted her to come and sort my dogs out ever since I first saw her show. Anyway, I won't harp on about it but she's amazing. The dogs love her and I am very excited to see what her plans are for them. She reckons she can get all the Chihuahuas to sit when told - if she manages that I'll pass out with shock! They are the most disobedient dogs ever!

Lyla is still the most beautiful living thing on the planet. She's growing in confidence every day and yesterday spent an hour rolling round the floor play-fighting with Paddy. Paddy is brilliant with her and I know they are going to be best mates!!!

Today I am working in London (I have to go and get ready soon). I'm promoting my mobile phone video downloads. You can download videos of me in my underwear giving sex tips and advice. I'm taking Lyla and Stevie with me. Jordan and Russ are clearing all the rubbish out of my garage for me and if it stops raining they are going to cut my grass. At the moment my lawn looks like a tropical jungle. Paddy loves it but to anyone else, it's a mess.

I'm supposed to be going to Italy next week with Jordan but I know that I won't want to leave Lyla for four days so am thinking of giving the ticket to one of my mates. I would have loved the break but realistically I can go any time and my little baby needs me right now. She's just settling in, it wouldn't be fair to up and leave her. Right now she is barking at her toys in the living room. She's in Paddy's bed (so she looks totally lost) and is surrounded by fluffy toys. She's growling and barking a little comedy bark at them as if they are real. Bless.

She's doing very well with the weeing-on-the-paper training. She gets it on the paper about 70% of the time. Although last night when I asked Russ to watch her for 5 minutes, she managed to poo on my fluffy rug which meant Lauren and I had to spend ten minutes cutting the poo out of the rug with old scissors as it was stuck to the fur. Nice. My poor rug is going to be bald soon!

There is absolutely no man action in my life right now. There are a few people I fancy but deep down I'm so against the idea of having a relationship with anyone whose name isn't Valentino Rossi that I'm not even looking at fit men. In fact, I keep having Lesbian dreams at the moment!! There's a guy in Brentwood that I fancy actually. Whenever I see him I really flirt with him but I never seem to want to take it any further than that. I think it's cos I know deep down that if something were to happen, it would probably only be a meaningless fling that wouldn't last longer than a month. And as my mum said to me the other day "you don't want any more notches on your bedpost and you'll only break another heart if you pursue it........" She's right, there's a good reason I've got "Heart Breaker" tattooed on my leg and it's because I'm ruthless when it comes to men. I'm very happy being single right now anyway. My heart is already full of love for all my dogs so I couldn't possibly give any love to a man as well. What little room I did have left in my heart to give to a man has been taken up by Lyla's arrival. When I get time to put pictures of her on the site, you'll see what I mean anyway. She is the very meaning of the word "joy" (in a brown and white wrinkly velvet package). When she looks at me with her big brown eyes my stomach does a little flip and my heart feels like it is going to burst. I'm off to get ready now for my press call and 'meet n' greet' in London. Tonight I am staying in with the dogs and I'm filming again all day tomorrow with the lovely Victoria.

I hope you are all having a great week!

Lots of love

P.S my mate glamour model Lucy Becker is in America at the moment. She went to watch American Idol. So far she's met Cilla Black, had dinner with Lionel Blair, met Nigel Lithco and Simon Cowell and she thinks Taylor is going to win. She keeps texting me with all the gossip. She's having an amazing time.

P.P.S I wouldn't normally tell you to buy Ok Magazine as they are nasty to me (and only ever feature Jordan/Kerry - boring!!!) but Linsey's wedding pictures are in there this week. Check out my £700 gold shoes!!!!!!! You can see Lucy Becker too cos she was at the wedding with us. Linsey and Mark look amazing!!! I'll never tell you to buy it again I promise!
