In my absence on Sunday at the Fun Day, I won a rosette for best veteran. Now to be fair, I think I should hold it jointly with Queenie and Shadow as they have as much a claim to be \u2018Best veteran\u2019 as I do. However, I am honoured to be thought of in that light and in accepting this award I would just like to thank all those who helped me this far. Obviously, I am indebted to my Mum, Anka and my Dad, Elio, for the part they played. I would also like to thank my birth humans and my Master and Mistress. More importantly all the vets who have cared for me and of course Eukanuba for feeding me throughout my life. I suppose this speech wouldn\u2019t be complete without mentioning my lovely girlfriend, Bella and finally the little dog who has brought such joy to my senior years, Wilma. She is a one off in the dog world!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ve still lost my voice, but am now having the good sense to rest it a little in the hope it will come back. I\u2019m going swimming today, now that our Mistress knows my voice is not ill health. I\u2019m quite looking forward to it and my coat always feels lovely and soft afterwards. If I\u2019m being honest the best part of the process is the wash and blow dry at the end. I just love when the warm air is blown all over my fur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m counting down the days to seeing my Master. He\u2019s coming home in just another week and a half and although I\u2019m showing it in a very quiet way, I\u2019m really rather excited. I\u2019m hoping for a week of being thoroughly spoiled and given all the love and attention I could possibly ask for\u2026 and that\u2019s a lot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
