I\u2019m going to be three in just over a week and that\u2019s 21 in human terms. Mum has made clear I have to be responsible once I\u2019m an adult, so I thought I\u2019d better get being irresponsible out of the way first. I\u2019m proud to say that I was thrown out of a restaurant yesterday. Mum wasn\u2019t pleased, particularly as it is one of her favourite places, but at least I\u2019ve now ticked that one off my list. In my defence, I did not start the argument and the waiter was very nice about asking me to leave. He said he realised I hadn\u2019t started it, but I was actually the one thrown out so it counts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was really freaked out by the dog who started the argument. Knowing what a long memory I have, Mum is just hoping that I don\u2019t now get upset when I go there again even if he isn\u2019t there. Of course, it would do her waistline good if we didn\u2019t go so often as it\u2019s one of the places she likes the ice creams. I think she was a bit upset even though she understood I\u2019d just been freaked out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Berry<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6147.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6147-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14852\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6147-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6147.jpg 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Me and Berry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>I did have a lovely time seeing Berry. We went for a walk and then had a mad play together. We got a bit too mad so I was banished. There seems to be a theme here. A girl could take it personally. Anyway, as I mentioned we went out for ice cream, where another dog was really rude to me. Then Berry had to go, which was a shame. She had even wanted to travel in the car with me instead of with her own human, which I really liked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shadow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So far so good with Shadow. She is still eating and drinking well and has not had any more bleeding. She is much more cheerful than she was, but we\u2019ll see how she is later today once her injections have completely worn off. When asked she said she felt much more ready to travel than she did but is grateful for the time to recuperate before we set off. I\u2019m hoping she might feel well enough for a walk this evening as I really do like it when I have company on my little jaunts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book as well as our other books are available&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=rosemary%20j%20kind\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 2018 Rosemary J.
