We had our first taste of the Swiss Adventure last night. Our Master has been trying to see a number of his friends before he sets off. Last night our Mistress prepared a raclette for some of them. Why am I telling you this? Well as a dog I think raclette is just the best thing ever. If you\u2019ve never had one, the humans use it to cook their food on a sort of hot stone thing at the table. That means lots of slices of meat and cheese all ready to be used when someone is ready for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are a dog, sitting under the table, with a Mistress as soft as ours, that means being given some steak every so often. It even means being asked \u2018Do you want the next bit raw, Aristotle or do you prefer it cooked?\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The next part of the process is for me to help our Master packing. Here it is more a case of asking \u2018Do you want that with or without extra dog hair?\u2019 Actually, in our house the choice is pretty limited. With four of us it\u2019s more a question of how many dogs he wants the hair to be from. Dog hair free is not really an option. He\u2019ll be taking some photos of us so he doesn\u2019t forget what we look like, as well as a copy of the book written by our Mistress. He\u2019s going to find it all very odd without us all to tell him we love him all the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alfie is doing all right. He\u2019s back to complaining when his meals aren\u2019t on time, which is definitely a good sign. He\u2019s still having his food wet and is on so many drugs that he\u2019s the ultimate hippy dog and totally spaced out. I think our Mistress is reducing his pain killers today so he\u2019ll be back in the real world before he knows it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have a great day<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
