Well that\u2019s not fair. Aristotle is getting another delivery today but there won\u2019t be anything for me. Mum was worried his food would run out before she could bring some more for him next week. Because he\u2019s on a special very low fat diet she didn\u2019t want that to happen. He can be very ill if he has too much fat in his diet. Anyway, Mum was worried so she\u2019s sent some more food for him. Apparently, because I can eat just about anything, she didn\u2019t see the need to send anything for me. I pouted a bit when she told me. Rather than sympathy, she told me to stop being so ungrateful. She\u2019s already got a bag of my food and I\u2019m not likely to run out before she sees me anyway. She might be right, but that didn\u2019t feel like the point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shadow is her usual stroppy self. She is very good at being uncooperative if she doesn\u2019t want to do something. She\u2019s taken to sitting down several meters before Mum gets to the field that she\u2019s supposed to be walking in. It then becomes something of a battle of wills as to whether Mum can persuade her to move in the right direction. Shadow has always made clear that she does not wish to cooperate with the plan for her to come back to kennels next week. She\u2019s very happy to be with Mum, although begrudgingly admitted she is missing me and Aristotle. I can\u2019t imagine how difficult Shadow found it to actually say that. She\u2019s always so dismissive of us and says she\u2019d happily be an only dog. It turns out that\u2019s not quite the case after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If Shadow will get into the car, Mum\u2019s going to take her over to see the new house from the outside today. They are going for a walk along the road opposite the house so that Shadow can see what she thinks too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
