The end of 2020<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Today marks the end of 2020. There are a lot of humans out there who are very happy to give a different year an opportunity. I\u2019m writing to you dogs. Please, do whatever you need to do to keep your humans at home tonight. They need to celebrate with you and not with other humans. We don\u2019t want things getting any worse than they already are out there. Too many dogs will have been orphaned by what is happening and you don\u2019t want it to happen to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Take whatever measures are necessary to keep your humans home. Hang on to their trouser leg. Feign illness. Howl. Use those puppy dog eyes \u2013 but just don\u2019t let them go out. It isn\u2019t worth it. You even have my permission to fetch the can or bottle from the fridge for them if that\u2019s what it will take to stop them going out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Year\u2019s Resolutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget to sit down with your human to make your New Year\u2019s Resolutions too. Every dog and pup needs to think about what they want to achieve in 2021 just as much as their humans do. That\u2019s exactly what I plan to do and tomorrow I\u2019ll tell you what I\u2019ve decided. Mum has suggested I should put in not chasing squirrels but I\u2019m not sure I can bring myself to go that far. Think carefully, what are the things you need to work on? Do you love rolling in fox poo and does that cause you problem at home? No, scratch that, every dog should be allowed to roll in fox poo without getting into trouble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shadow has said she\u2019s too old for resolution, but Mum says she does not agree. She has asked Shadow to consider cutting down on the howling, especially before 7am. We will have to see if she comes up with anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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