It is exactly two years since I first met the little girl who was going to be my very own puppy and keep me smiling in my old age. I\u2019ve not found being around other dogs very easy the last couple of years, but Wilma is different she is one special little girl and I\u2019m always happy to see her. She takes care of me and snuggles up when I need a bit of comfort. She never gets cross with me and always understands when I\u2019m finding things difficult. I\u2019ve even coped with how close she and our Mistress are. They have a special bond that I don\u2019t feel threatened by at all. It\u2019s nice, because I know there is a dog to do all the things with our Mistress that I don\u2019t want to do anymore and the things I never liked doing in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although she\u2019s really an adult now, Wilma still behaves like a puppy and throws herself<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-medium wp-image-11181\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/IMG_2568-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11181\"\/><figcaption>Wilma and Alfie Dec 2015<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>into everything without a care in the world. When I say throws herself into things that includes closed doors and all sorts. She forgets to wait for the door to be opened but seems to bounce off unharmed. She can vault dog gates as though she is simply doing hurdling practice. Is enthusiastic at every meal time and would eat everyone else\u2019s food as well as her own. She has a carefree abandon which can only make all those around her smile and it is impossible for anyone to ever get annoyed with her \u2013 even when she does something that if it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-medium wp-image-13930\"><figure class=\"alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_5251-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13930\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_5251-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_5251-326x245.jpg 326w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_5251-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/IMG_5251.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption>My naughty puppy today<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>were anyone else would be very annoying.
