A little thing goes wrong and I get the blame. I\u2019m a \u2018scape-dog\u2019 that\u2019s what I am. Ok, so I understand my mistress gets asthma and I do my best to avoid being the cause. I try to shed my hair in neat little piles, to be fair there are sometime quite a lot of neat little piles that meet up in one blanket of hair, but that is not the problem. I keep myself very clean and wipe my paws when I come in from a walk. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Sadly, the same cannot be said for my master. Being frank he hasn\u2019t got a lot of hair to leave in neat little piles but that wasn\u2019t the difference I was referring to. There we were in the office working away, all three of us, when something started to affect my mistress\u2019s asthma and she concluded from the smell it might be something to do with me. So she opened a window to see if it would solve the problem. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Well it did improve but she decided I must have rolled in\nsomething when my master took me for a walk. At which point the call went up to\nput me in the bath and wash my paws. So off we all went, I needed rather more\nencouragement than they did. It was when we were in the bathroom and the water\nwas running that my mistress turned round and realised my master was leaving\nmuddy footprints everywhere. It was in fact my master that had rolled in\nsomething, or maybe trodden; he doesn\u2019t roll very often! His shoes went into\nthe bath and a great deal of dirt came off them. For good measure the water was\nrun again and I was made to get in and have my paws washed. Zip, nothing, no\nmud, clean little paws as always! Did I get an apology from my master or for\nthat matter my mistress? No. Did my mistress get an apology from my master? No.\nThen he wonders why I think I should come higher in the pecking order than he\ndoes!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019m not about to blame Dad for anything. I\u2019m just so happy to have him around at the moment. I can\u2019t stop going to find it for a cuddle. I\u2019d spend all day like this if they let me. Well, to be fair I think Dad would let me but Mum is less keen. She seems to think we need to get up and do things. Ah well, one of the things will be a walk so it\u2019s not all bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a great Friday<\/p>\n\n\n\n Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mud<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
