The last puppy will be leaving this morning. It is going to be very sad saying goodbye to little Annette today. Aristotle is going to miss her very much indeed. I\u2019m softening towards the little chap, now that I can actually play with him. I also think it\u2019s a shame that Shadow isn\u2019t being so nice to him. I suppose it was inevitable I\u2019d take him under my wing at some point.<\/p>\n<p>Annette will find it strange being in a new house without any of us dogs around for company. I know she will be spoilt rotten and will be very happy once she has settled, but I\u2019m a little bit worried about her.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5637\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5637\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Aristotle-Annette-005.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5637\" title=\"Aristotle &amp; Annette 005\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Aristotle-Annette-005-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5637\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Annette preparing to depart<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I\u2019ve just had to break off as Annette was leaving. She seems very happy with her new owners. She has a lovely collar with Swiss flags on it that looks rather like mine, but smaller. I\u2019m now having to contend with Aristotle being around the office rather than in his pen. He\u2019s doing all the right things including rolling over and saying I\u2019m the boss, but he\u2019s doing a few wrong things too, like peeing on the rug. He can move very fast and has run into several things already. Why is it me that has to do the baby sitting? Why can\u2019t Megan do some of it? I suppose having said that I wouldn\u2019t want to be sent out of the office and it makes sense at the moment for Aristotle to be there. The good thing is that Ari gets tired quite quickly so he only bugs me in short bursts.<\/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>Today is the day.
