Hello everyone it’s a very excited Wilma here. At last I can show you my portrait. Isn’t it absolutely amazing? It has been done by a lovely friend of Mum’s called Andy. The best bit is this, he’s said that if any of you would like your portrait done he’ll do it for you too. He only asks for a donation to cover the postage for the actual picture and the materials he uses to do the portrait. He’s brilliant. If you do want your portrait, the instructions are on the page. All you need to do is to send him a suitable photo of yourself and make a donation using Paypal. Send him an email first so he can tell you where you are on the list. If you get in quickly he doesn’t have a very long waiting list at the moment, and you could have an absolutely pawsome picture like mine! I think it’s really exciting and I’m going to tell all my friends about it. I’m one very lucky puppy.
Shadow is a very happy dog at the moment too. She got a real surprise on Saturday when her human, James, visited us. James was Shadow’s human for the first four or more years of her life. He doesn’t live with us anymore so she doesn’t see him very often. She was so very happy and smiled for ages afterwards. There are people out there who still don’t get that dogs have as good a memory as humans and care just as much. If you’d seem Shadow you certainly wouldn’t doubt it. What was really hard was that to begin with Alfie didn’t recognise him. Then when Mum got Alfie to go right up to James and smell him, he realised who he was and was pleased to see him too. She says it’s all part of the problems Alfie is having in life now, which is really hard to watch.
Anyway, don’t forget you can have your portrait drawn and please, if you do, send us a picture so we can show everyone how great your portrait is too.
Love
Wilma
