I\u2019m not supposed to know, but I saw the pack when the delivery arrived. One of our Christmas presents is a test your dog\u2019s IQ set. I wonder which one of us will come out best. My Mistress always calls Shadow her \u2018bimbo\u2019 and says she hasn\u2019t got much going on between the ears. Wouldn\u2019t it be funny if she were to prove my Mistress wrong? My Mistress says she thinks that Ari has his dad\u2019s brains, even though he looks so like his mum. I do hope I come out of the test all right. It would be so embarrassing to be beaten by a puppy.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been grateful for the extensive support over the marzipan incident. It may not surprise you to know that the rest of the fruit and veg has been made and put away on top of the fridge-freezer where none of us can reach. I am pleased to say there was still some that hadn\u2019t been coloured in the cupboard, so when the vet gave me antibiotics yesterday I was able to have them wrapped in a little marzipan, so I am guessing my rehabilitation on the marzipan front is complete. The antibiotics are because I\u2019m still having problems with my bottom. I\u2019ve now got an infection in one of my anal glands and it really is very sore. Being a dog, I keep licking it, but to be honest I think I may be making it worse. I really can\u2019t wait for the antibiotics to start to work. Ari is hoping I feel better soon too as I didn\u2019t feel so much like playing yesterday and he missed me. It made me feel very warm when the little chap said that. There are still odd times I want my own space, but overall I really rather like having him around. I understand him so much better than I do the girls. I found this picture of me playing with his mum when she was just a bit younger than Ari is now. They really are so alike.<\/p>\n
