If Alfie is the cleanest dog in the world, Aristotle is most certainly not. Oh don\u2019t get me wrong, he likes his white bits to look just as nice as the rest of us do, but he\u2019s less bothered about some other things. He is sharing a room with Shadow at the moment. Neither of them are thrilled with the arrangement and are making that known. Mainly they are protesting by barking, with the occasional howl thrown in. Yesterday Aristotle took his protest to a whole new level, or depth depending on which way you want to look at it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Toilet breaks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mum is taking us all outside for regular toilet breaks. She\ncan\u2019t take us for walks at the moment and we understand that, at least some of\nus do. Aristotle on the other paw decided not to cooperate yesterday. She had\ntaken him out, but then he was with Shadow in the snug for an hour our two. It\nwas certainly less than two hours, I know that as I was checking the clock for\nwhen our next meal would be. In that time he managed to poo in their room, not\nonce but twice! It would not have been quite so bad if he hadn\u2019t then jumped in\none pile of it when Mum went to clean up.&nbsp;\nAt that point he became canis non grata!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keeping Warm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile Alfie was very tired and lethargic. He took up residence as close to the radiator as he could get. Mum was wondering about getting him an extra blanket or two to keep him warm. I think she\u2019s going to try that today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_8790-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16947\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve promised to try not to bark if he moans in discomfort. I\ncan see it isn\u2019t helping, but he keeps startling me and it\u2019s difficult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>One dog in our house is in disgrace and there are no prizes for guessing who it is.
