Unfortunately it didn\u2019t go according to plan so she won\u2019t be having any puppies just yet. I was quite shocked when she told me our Mum is off to meet another dog this week. \u201cWhat would Dad say?\u201d was my immediate reaction but then I guess he hasn\u2019t been around for any of our upbringing so I don\u2019t suppose he has any right to say anything. I\u2019d just got my head around the fact that I might be having one of my nieces coming to live with us and now I need to start thinking in terms of a sister. Either way it would be pretty cool.<\/p>\n<p>I have been forced to have a bath. Always when I get to the just smelly enough level the same thing happens. When will humans understand that we dogs do not want to smell all clean? Although to be fair this new baby shampoo I\u2019m trying really does smell quite nice and it leaves my coat so silky and fluffy. Even I can tell the difference and then when my Mistress comes along and just wants to bury her face in my fur, who am I to complain? The oddest thing happened when I came out of the bath. Because of the concern to make sure I am completely dry and don\u2019t get eczema again, my Mistress turned the hairdryer on me. It seems a little unfair when she doesn\u2019t even use it on herself but it wasn\u2019t too bad. She had it on the warm setting and she stroked me a lot while she did it. I looked so fluffy by the end. I wasn\u2019t awfully keen on it and I was a bit clingy for a while afterwards. Then I saw the irony of being clingy to the person who had directed a machine blowing hot air at me and I went off and did my own thing instead.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I heard from my sister about her date with a dog.
