I\u2019ve got some exciting news. I asked Chloe the assistance dog if she would do an interview for us and she\u2019s going to. She\u2019s going to tell us some of her personal experience of being a working dog and the problems that can bring. I\u2019m in such admiration of the work she\u2019s doing that I just can\u2019t wait to interview her for you all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alfie asked me to carry on doing his diary at the moment. He\u2019s doing ok, but he\u2019s finding it a real chore getting about with his paw bound up. He\u2019s going to have the dressing changed again today and as long as everything is still going well he\u2019s looking forward to having the stitches out and the bandages off completely from Friday. He says at the moment it just doesn\u2019t seem to be his paw and is doing things of its own accord. It\u2019s worse when he\u2019s wearing his boot as he\u2019s not used to dragging round something quite so big.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To be fair, he is making the whole boot thing much harder than he needs to. Every time Mum wants to put the boot on his foot so he can go out, he curls his toes up, so the boot doesn\u2019t sit neatly on his foot. He says he just can\u2019t help it. It\u2019s a sort of reflex reaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As it\u2019s got rather warmer, Mum has resorted to wearing shorts. She has sat me down and had a serious discussion with me about it. It\u2019s not that she\u2019s expecting me to wear shorts too, it\u2019s just that she would be very grateful if I could stop jumping up and shredding her legs. Apparently whilst I only cause bruising through her jeans, she seems under the impression that if I do that to bare legs I might just cause extensive bleeding. I can\u2019t help my natural ebullient personality, although it seems it would be helpful if I could contain it just a little bit. This is not going to go well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
