I met \u2018Brian the postman\u2019 yesterday. He\u2019s fantastic and a great friend of the others so it was a pleasure to be taken to the door so I could have my first introduction. He wanted to take me home, which was lovely. It would have been quite fun to have a ride in the van, but I\u2019d need to know I was coming back again.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5610\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5610\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Aristotle-0011.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5610\" title=\"Aristotle 001\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Aristotle-0011-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5610\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aristotle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Megan\u2019s worrying about her mum as she has broken both her back legs. It\u2019s hard to cope on two legs for a dog. I do hope she will be ok. A big hug and lick from all of us.<\/p>\n<p>We had great fun outside while my Mistress was trying to wash the car. Annette got completely covered in soap suds and loved it. I stayed a little more out of the way, but was delighted to be rubbed down with the towel when we came in. I think I might like to try a full bath sometime, just to see what it\u2019s like. When we play outside Annette is always the leader. She finds something to run off with and I chase after her. I\u2019m happy just running about to be honest. I don\u2019t mind if she\u2019s got the ball or as it turned out today the spare piece of turf. It\u2019s all the same to a puppy. I\u2019m not completely ready to play with Alfie. He is lovely, but he\u2019s so big and I find that a bit daunting. I\u2019m quite happy to have another week with someone my own size. Annette is only here until next Tuesday I want to make the most of her. It\u2019s going to be odd when she leaves next week and I really have to become part of the pack with the big dogs. I look up to them in every sense of the words.<\/p>\n<p>Alfie Dog with a little help from Rosemary J Kind&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:alfie@alfiedog.me.uk\">alfie@alfiedog.me.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book is available at Amazon UK &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA\">https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I just love Wednesday as I get to do something really exciting by covering the diary for Alfie.
