Now don\u2019t get me wrong I\u2019m not jealous, well not very, but little Aristotle seems to have his whole life ahead of him and I\u2019m feeling just a little grey around the gills. Aristotle is one of the cleverest dogs I\u2019ve ever met. If we spent enough time training him there is very little he couldn\u2019t do. Just at the moment he has forgotten much of his training and has gone \u2018hormonal\u2019. He\u2019s hit that age where his hormones start to kick in and strange things start to happen. There he was at his training class the other night, not doing any of the things he has learnt, but instead wanting to play with every last girl dog he could find. Alarmingly, he has the looks and charm to go with it and every girl dog wanted to play with him. Other girl dogs who have seen his photo are already asking whether he\u2019s hoping to be a stud dog when he\u2019s bigger and he just smiles and shrugs and looks up at them with those big brown eyes. Deep down I feel quite proud of him. I know that part of it is the way I\u2019ve been bringing him up and it\u2019s always good to see the next generation doing you proud.<\/p>\n<p>We had quite a nice day together at the kennels. He was completely happy and relaxed and now won\u2019t be worrying when we have to go to stay while my Mistress goes to Switzerland. He did ask whether he could have a room with a room service phone, but I said I didn\u2019t think our budget quite stretched to that.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019d laugh if you saw us with our bones. He carefully rounds them all up and takes them to the bed by the window and then while he\u2019s chewing on one of them I carefully carry them all back to the settee. We can keep the game going for hours.&nbsp; It\u2019s good that neither of us is really possessive and can happily share everything together. It\u2019s a shame I can\u2019t share in the stud dog idea!<\/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>Some dogs just have it all.
