Our Mistress is feeling very tired and we\u2019ve been playing her up. To be fair the puppies started it. They have been quite grumbly after their meals today as they have been going to sleep and we\u2019ve just been reacting to them. We\u2019re all a bit wired. It\u2019s nothing that a long walk wouldn\u2019t fix and we\u2019ve been promised that if our Mistress can get a decent night\u2019s sleep tonight she will spend some time with each of us tomorrow.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10620\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10620\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/019174d69122f9e94f9a99827b09565765fe941fea.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10620\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/019174d69122f9e94f9a99827b09565765fe941fea-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Dixie wonders why her pillow keeps moving\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10620\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dixie wonders why her pillow keeps moving<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Shadow had her stitches out and our vet says she is doing very well. Shadow is already trying to get her figure back, although probably a little too soon as far as our Mistress is concerned for her feeding the puppies. While she was at the vet our Mistress booked the puppies in for a manicure before they shred her arms to pieces. They are going for that on Thursday morning so that will be quite an outing. We have not worked out yet if they still fit in the small carrying box or whether they have already outgrown it. They won\u2019t be that light to lift even if there are only four of them.<\/p>\n<p>One thing our vet said was that we should not be concerned if they are later starting to walk than other litters have been. Apparently larger puppies can be a little later with developments of that nature. They are certainly flexing their legs in readiness and have started trying weight bearing on their back legs as well as their front ones.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/WGF1avIdXZs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Here is today\u2019s video.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can find short stories to read at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book as well as our other books are available <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=rosemary%20j%20kind\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>It\u2019s been a long day.
