Della has had a very good day. After her early setback she has managed to add an amazing 90g taking her up to 520g and putting her right back on track. Dixie added 70g and is now 580g. Duchess added 60g so is already up to 600g. D’Artagnan is not doing quite so well so will get some more extra help today. He added 50g and is now 560g. There has been one weight loss, but this one is good news. Our Mistress got on the scales this morning and she has lost 2 pounds so she’s happy about that too!
Shadow is still not really feeling herself, but her wound is healing well and is nice and clean and her milk infection is almost clear, so the antibiotics are doing their job. She is eating well and drinking plenty so within a day or two she should be back to normal we hope.
As you can see from the photo, D’Artagnan is turning into a bit of a mummy’s boy. I suppose that’s what comes of being surrounded by women!
Shadow doesn’t want me around yet and is being very protective of the pups, so I’m a bit miserable sitting out here on my own most of the time. Our Mistress is doing her best for me, but I understand I can’t be the priority right now. I’ll be glad when I can start sleeping near her again as that definitely helps.
I’ll bring you another update this evening.

Sorry to hear you are feeling a bit miserable Alfie. Sending you lots of cuddles. xx
Thank you. I know it happens every time and I’ll get over it. I usually go through a naughty phase first to make our Mistress feel guilty.
Thank you for all the news Alfie it is great to know you are giving us all the information first hand. I am told I am like D`Artagnan – strong willed and determined and I am also a Mummy`s boy. I am glad he is flying the flag for the boys!
Love to you all in Yorkshire, Dickens and the gang XXXXXXX
If he grows up like you, Dickens he’ll be just fine. Have a woofly day.
