She said that even by the time she got there she was already wishing that we were with her or more to the point that she was with us. She really isn\u2019t a city lover, which suits me very well as neither am I. When she isn\u2019t with us she always wears her necklace with our pawprints on and of course the ring I got her for Christmas too. She doesn\u2019t have one of Wilma\u2019s pawprints yet so she wore the earrings that Wilma bought her for Christmas. It\u2019s nice to think that she thinks about us when we aren\u2019t there. She says a day in a city is more than enough to remind her that she doesn\u2019t ever want to go back to her old type of working life. There might be some companies that allow you to take a dog to work with you, but there aren\u2019t many that would let you take all 4! We\u2019d probably get in the way. Of course we get in the way at home too, but we\u2019re allowed to do that because it\u2019s our home. Come to that it\u2019s my business as it has my name on all the paperwork so I am probably more allowed to get in the way than the others.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m feeling fairly nervous as the dog behaviour lady is coming out to see me tomorrow to discuss my anxiety issues. I don\u2019t really know what to say to her, but our Mistress says she will be there with me and the lady won\u2019t just be talking to me she will want to talk to all of us. I don\u2019t know what she\u2019ll make of the way Aristotle treats me sometimes. Our Mistress has said that it is both of us that are at fault, but I can\u2019t help being frightened. He doesn\u2019t have to be nasty to me. I just hope the lady can help. Our Mistress says it will probably be her that is given the homework rather than me, but I guess we\u2019ll have to work on it together.<\/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>I told you our Mistress had to go to London yesterday, well what was lovely was that she missed us.
