They look at each other and often don\u2019t realise that anything has changed and when they do, they something like \u2018Is it your hair?\u2019 when the person has got a broken leg, or \u2018You look well.\u2019 When they\u2019ve got new glasses. Very rarely do they look at each other well enough to be able to say \u2018Oh I like your new glasses.\u2019 Not of course that I said that to my Mistress either when she came back from the optician. I just sniffed and nuzzled to check out where she\u2019d been and make sure she basically still smelt the same. Fortunately, she wasn\u2019t disappointed that I didn\u2019t notice, it was more the fact that the humans didn\u2019t notice that she found depressing. Now if she\u2019s been out and rolled in something smelly, then I would have noticed. In that case I would probably have given her a good lick as well as a sniff, while the rest of the family would have told her to go away!<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m eagerly waiting for news of whether the first of the puppies that are going to come and live with me are expected soon. It\u2019s been a long wait and I\u2019ve been very patient, but now I am starting to get very excited by the prospect. I\u2019m not so excited about having to take on the responsibility of teaching them all that I\u2019ve learnt, but I\u2019m sure with a little help from my attentive Mistress we\u2019ll soon knock the little fella into shape. Can you still call it a fella when it\u2019s going to be a girl? My Mistress is hoping she will be as easy to housetrain as I was, but then I pointed out I was a very special puppy and it is highly unlikely that she would ever find another one like me.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Humans are funny creatures.
