Friday flashback<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s Friday flashback and I\u2019m using it to cheer myself up. It\u2019s so cold and miserable back here in England. As if that\u2019s not bad enough, Mum has booked me in for a blood test next week. Because of the whole Brexit thing and the fact we are travelling almost as soon as it has happened, she doesn\u2019t want to risk not having all the right paperwork in place. I said, \u201cCan\u2019t we just wait and see?\u201d but apparently if I don\u2019t have the blood test by soon there might not be time for everything to be on my passport in time. I think Ari is going to write it all up again to let you know what\u2019s happening. He says if you\u2019ve got any questions you can email him on Alfie\u2019s email alfie@alfiedog.me.uk<\/a> and he\u2019ll try to answer them for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2006 Alfie rather proved one of the points Mum is making about my rabies vaccination. You see if my blood test doesn\u2019t show enough antibodies against rabies, then I\u2019d have to have another one and that\u2019s exactly what happened to Alfie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rabies Titre Test<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once again my little bag is packed for going away. Although it isn\u2019t for very long I am really not happy to have to be away from home on my birthday. I know it was never the intention of my mistress for me to be apart from her on my birthday, and I realise it isn\u2019t her fault that my first rabies jab didn\u2019t work but all the same you would have thought she could have changed her plans to fit round me. What is the world coming to when a puppy can\u2019t spend his first birthday cuddled up to the people he loves most? I was banking on being able to get away with getting into bed with them on my birthday, that\u2019s that plan spoilt.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did look at using what Alfie wrote in 2008 but Ari has asked if he can use it on Sunday and you\u2019ll see why when he does. Instead let\u2019s look at what Shadow was getting up to in 2009 when she was still a puppy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chewing Books<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Shadow as a puppy<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Shadow is in a strata lower than the dog-house. Until now she has only eaten books and brochures that didn\u2019t matter, this time she has gone too far. I\u2019m guessing she was hungry and probably frustrated that she couldn\u2019t cook anything for herself. She resorted to eating one of my Mistress\u2019s cookery books. To say that my Mistress was unhappy with this turn of events would be putting it mildly. She is now looking at how the whole kitchen can be replanned in order for the cookery books to be put on a higher shelf. Unfortunately, the only options seem to be to move the glasses to a lower shelf and she isn\u2019t thinking that\u2019s such a bright idea either. You can just see it now, Shadow pulling all the glasses off in an attempt to reach the higher level books.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s all I can fit in today. Have a lovely day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
