I know I\u2019m always excited, but the thought of a whole weekend to play is quite a fun thought. Oh I\u2019ll miss getting into bed, but it\u2019s only for a couple of days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie is still improving, but in need of some tlc this weekend. We just have to hope the abscess doesn\u2019t come back now. Now to delve into the archive:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oh this is about Shadow\u2019s second litter in 2012<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/7th-Dec.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/7th-Dec-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7063\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Puppy mush seems to be the latest fashion accessory with all puppies and my Mistress wearing it in liberal quantities. All five of them have the chance to try a little at each of their daytime feeds. Some eat it, some walk in it and on one unfortunate occasion Beethoven sat in it and got a bit of a surprise.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>What is really funny is that now there is a little more time away from the puppies you\u2019d think that my Mistress would be please and happily getting on with other things. However, you\u2019d be wrong. I found her watching them on the puppy cam even though she was sat at her desk and having a break. I think she\u2019s addicted. She\u2019s going to miss them when they go to their homes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Then I looked back to when it was just Alfie in 2008<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I would like to receive interesting post. Letters such as \u2018Dear Alfie, we think you\u2019re wonderful\u2019, not \u2018Dear Alfie, your worming treatment is due.\u2019 That sits along with things like \u2018your account is overdue\u2019. It isn\u2019t just the message it gives it\u2019s the insinuation you\u2019ve been doing something wrong. They only think I need to be wormed because they are suggesting I have been foraging around for food wherever I can find it, including dead animals with worms. What kind of dog do they think I am? Admittedly, I do a little foraging now and again, but never dead things, not unless they\u2019ve been thoroughly cooked and had a light white wine sauce applied first. I have my standards. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well that\u2019s all for me today.
