I\u2019m feeling a bit down. My blog didn\u2019t get short listed in the competition I entered it for. I suppose I shouldn\u2019t take it too personally, I was the only dog who entered and I\u2019m sure they probably were a little concerned about how I would behave at the awards ceremony if they gave it to me. I am a dog with a fighting spirit and I\u2019ll live to fight another day. We sat down and had a bit of a heart to heart, my Mistress and me, she was feeling like giving up too. I did a deal with her. I\u2019ll keep going if she will. She said she thinks we need a holiday but that\u2019s easier said than done. I asked if we could go back to the log cabin for a week, but she said even if we did that it wouldn\u2019t be until the summer and maybe we could all four of us go. I questioned four, but it seems she was including my Master and Shadow. It\u2019s going to be strange having to get used to not having my Mistress to myself. She\u2019s promised it won\u2019t make any difference to the time we have together but I know in reality it will. I think that\u2019s what raiding the bin was all about, I was seeking some extra attention and making sure she couldn\u2019t forget that I\u2019m here.<\/p>\n
We talked about what project to embark on next, while we went on our walk today. My Mistress seems to think she wants time to capitalise on everything we\u2019ve done so far before starting something new. She wants me to put together the whole of the Pet Dogs Democratic Party manifesto so that we can see if someone will publish that. It\u2019s all very well, but what she doesn\u2019t seem to appreciate is that this is something for pet dogs. On the whole the humans are the enemies against whom we need to fight to bring justice. She said people could always buy it for their dog.<\/p>\n
