I think it\u2019s the most responsible thing I\u2019ve ever had to do. We had lots of entries, apparently more than we\u2019ve ever had for any other competition. It was too difficult for me to do it all on my own. Our Mistress helped me by writing all the names on pieces of paper, at least all the ones who got it right! Then all the names went into a tin and she drew out ten for me to choose the winners from. This is me and Ari with the tin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After that part all the winners names were put under cups of their own and I had to choose two of the cups. To help me choose there was a dog treat under each cup too, but the treats were all the same so there was no bias. You can see the video of me choosing the final two.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TheRealAlfieDog\/videos\/vb.241867412543568\/1045006718896296\/?type=3&#038;theater\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TheRealAlfieDog\/videos\/vb.241867412543568\/1045006718896296\/?type=3&amp;theater<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, the lovely winners of my first ever competition are\u2026 Michelle Hardie and M Collier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well done to both of you and your tickets will be in the post to you soon. Our Mistress said she\u2019d check your addresses and we will send the tickets as soon as they arrive with us, hopefully in the next few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are all anxiously waiting for Alfie\u2019s blood test results today. I do hope that he will be feeling a bit better soon. He\u2019s sleeping a lot and when we\u2019re together I go over and check on him from time to time to make sure he\u2019s ok and see if he needs anything, but I haven\u2019t bothered him apart from that. Our Mistress says I\u2019ve been really good and she can tell how much Alfie appreciates it, even if he doesn\u2019t say much. She says she thinks he sees some of the same qualities in me as in his girlfriend Bella and that\u2019s a real compliment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find short stories to read at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\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>Oh it\u2019s been so exciting choosing my competition winners.
