There I was looking forward to taking pictures of Aristotle opening his presents on Christmas day and now I can\u2019t. My Master has said I might be able to borrow his camera, but I\u2019m scared about dropping it. It\u2019s quite big and I\u2019ll find it difficult to get my paws round it. I\u2019ve asked Santa if I can have a camera for Christmas but I\u2019m presuming it\u2019s all too later for the elves to get their hands on one and wrap it in time. It means today I have to bring you a photograph from the archives. I was looking for one of me as a puppy and was going to ask you to guess who it was, but I can\u2019t find one on this computer where I\u2019m less than six months old and by that time I am definitely me. So here I am where I used to go walking in Belgium, with my Master and a stick that was almost as big as I was.<\/p>\n<p>Today is a nothing very exciting sort of day. The sort of day where I will have to keep a very close eye on Ari to make sure he doesn\u2019t come up with his own entertainment for the day. He seems ok so far after the handbag episode, but the vet did say we wouldn\u2019t know for at least a week or two. I\u2019ve really got used to having him around. I\u2019d be distraught if I lost my little playmate. I\u2019m teaching him to grow up just like me. Of course I wouldn\u2019t have eaten the handbag, but we all make mistakes.<\/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>Almost Christmas and the camera decides to pack up.
