When you live in a country that basically sits at sea level, waterlogged is the term you use to describe the dry ground. When it rains as much as it has been doing the last few days and you are made to go out for a walk, it isn\u2019t just your paws that need wiping when you get back! You get mud right up over your ankles, your knees, your tummy and if you are really unlucky\u2026, well lets just say it gets everywhere. The only good side is it means you can then make lovely patterns in mud with your paws and whole body shapes on the duvet cover. It\u2019s even worth the being shouted at later when your mistress finds out!<\/p>\n
How am I supposed to resist the chocolate decorations on the tree that have been hung at \u2018Alfie height\u2019? My mistress said that those ones were intended to be at \u2018Andrew height\u2019 so that he can find some, but to be honest \u2018Andrew height\u2019 and \u2018Alfie height\u2019 are much the same thing. He can reach up a little higher now than I can, I tend to overbalance if I stand on my back legs for too long. It\u2019s all very well telling me \u2018I can sniff but I had better not touch\u2019 but doesn\u2019t my mistress realise that is getting very close to cruelty to dogs? I don\u2019t want to sniff, I want to eat. I\u2019m not going to bother with the candy canes, I got the plastic wrapping between my teeth, but I am prepared to try to overcome the silver paper to get to the chocolate. I can only think my mistress has lost all sanity, putting chocolates within reach of a dog on a diet. I know what your thinking, if I could learn to resist things like this I wouldn\u2019t be on a diet, but my argument is that I\u2019m naturally big boned and am not fat at all!<\/p>\n
