Now, you dogs in other parts of the world may not really know what I\u2019m on about as the typical British Pub is something which doesn\u2019t exist everywhere. Of course, being British might be a bit of a giveaway on that front. Oh, I know you get bars, but they just aren\u2019t the same thing at all. Where is the cosy fireplace where a dog can stretch out in luxury? Where are the dark little corners that food can lurk on the floor for months unnoticed until one of us finds it? Going to the pub is something that a dog can do with his master or mistress and sit in idle contemplation of the world. Sadly, our village pub only lets us go once in a while by special arrangement and doesn\u2019t &nbsp;as a matter of course allow us to lounge as we please. It\u2019s probably a good job as if it did I\u2019d be asking to go down on a regular basis. I don\u2019t suppose I\u2019d get much of a look in, seeing as Wilma finds it hard to keep her tongue out of a glass of beer or wine if it\u2019s left anywhere near her. I\u2019m not saying she\u2019s an alcoholic, but she does like a drink. She\u2019d be begging to go down and see who she could charm, which would be pretty much everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dogbuddypubs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"129\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Infographic-DFPA-WHOLE-1-e1507903339643.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Infographic-DFPA-WHOLE-1-e1507903339643.jpg 129w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Infographic-DFPA-WHOLE-1-e1507903339643-86x300.jpg 86w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 129px) 100vw, 129px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Infographic-DFPA-WHOLE-1-e1507903339643.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, I\u2019ve digressed.

I\u2019m rather hoping you will so I can start to find out where I should be going. That\u2019s reminded me that I\u2019m supposed to be helping Wilma add to our dog friendly hotels section. I\u2019ll give her a nudge and get her doing some work later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie\u2019s planning to go out and walk his next mile for Heidi\u2019s fund today.
