I\u2019ve got one person less than I thought to look after. Helen\u2019s friend saw sense and decided not to stay in a house with a dog in charge. My Mistress has run through everything with me several times. I know what she has left for meals and I am to tell my Master at the appropriate time. I have a more reliable body clock, so I am to wake him in the morning at 7 for my cuddle and to remind him to get up. I need to remember to tell him where all the food is, oh dear I don\u2019t know that I\u2019m going to be very good at this. I did ask my Mistress whether I could perhaps go to kennels instead as then I wouldn\u2019t have anything to worry about until she got back, but she said she\u2019s depending on me. So much responsibility.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m now counting off the days until Bella arrives. There are only six more to go. I am really sad that Yasmine isn\u2019t going to be there when we go for Bella. I did rather like her. I know she is bigger than me, much much bigger if we are being strictly accurate, but I did rather take a shine to her. She\u2019s on heat and has gone to meet a stud dog. It\u2019s times like this you realise what it means not to be an entire male. I\u2019m not good enough for her. I feel a bit sad. OK I know I\u2019m the wrong breed too but I\u2019m not racist. I suppose I\u2019m going to have to settle for being a surrogate dad when Bella has puppies. My Mistress has been trying to explain some of the differences between girls and boys to me, so that I am not too worried when certain things happen. She didn\u2019t get very far before I had covered my ears with my paws and was running round saying \u201cI\u2019m not listening, I can\u2019t hear you.\u201d It was all just too distressing. I think I might try talking to my Master about it instead to see whether it can really be true.<\/p>\n
