Drontal are running a competition for you to post a photo of dog and human showing their inseparable bond. Now, if an Entlebucher doesn\u2019t win that one there is no justice in the world! Of course, you other breeds shouldn\u2019t be put off, but we do have a bit of an advantage because inseparable just isn\u2019t a strong enough word for us. In fact in America we know people who have described our bond with our humans as \u2018pathological\u2019 and our Mistress says she can see where they are coming from. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I managed half a walk yesterday. It gave me chance to have a sniff and pick up half a dead animal. Sadly I was told in no uncertain terms to leave the dead animal where I found it. I\u2019ve marked the spot so I can find it again later when hopefully our Mistress will be paying a little less attention to what I\u2019m up to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma has had our Mistress worried. On Sunday she woke up with a cough and runny eyes and our Mistress feared she was going to end up missing Crufts. She had a little coughing fit in the afternoon when she went for a walk, but was ok the rest of the day. Yesterday she coughed a tiny bit when she got up and just a little bit later, but less than Sunday so our Mistress is hoping she\u2019s just had a slight cold and will be well enough to go and not likely to pass anything on. Today is decision day, so we are waiting to see what our Mistress thinks. Wilma was allowed not to go to her dog training class last night in the hope she would be better for a rest. Tonight\u2019s class is the important one this week as she should be getting her certificate to say she\u2019s passed her puppy course and can move on to the next level. She\u2019s also been learning tricks to show off in the end of course party.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_2953-e1457369281844-262x300.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2953\" class=\"wp-image-11460\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>It snowed here on Sunday night and was white over yesterday.
