At 9am UK time the company, of which I am the patron dog, launches its brand new business venture. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a> is THE place on the internet to buy short stories to read. We have fantastic authors from all over the world who all write in the English language. We\u2019ve got some very funny stories. We\u2019ve got some very sad stories and best of all we have stories with dogs in them. I think having me as patron may have encouraged writers of dog stories to submit their work. I think they thought they might have come to the right place, which of course they have. Anyway, please do take a look. Feel free to start buying stories. There\u2019ll be new ones added every week so you should never run out and if you wouldn\u2019t mind telling all your friends, neighbours, acquaintances, work colleagues, people at bus stops, anyone you pass in the street, then we\u2019d be very grateful. I haven\u2019t actually got any of my own writing on the site, but there are some of my Mistress\u2019s stories.<\/p>\n<p>On the home front, James is sitting his first GCSE today, so good luck from us all. I\u2019ve never really sat any exams. I know from the girls how nerve-wracking they are. Ari did his puppy exam, but I never got that far thanks to the language barrier.<\/p>\n<p>Dora is making progress, although we haven\u2019t heard the result of her biopsy yet. We\u2019re all thinking of you, Dora. Amigo has conjunctivitis, so you know what that means. There are five of us. Conjunctivitis spreads. The vet said you can improve it with cold tea bags. So we are all trying tea bags. Amigo was first and he tried to eat the tea bag, which wasn\u2019t the 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>Today is the big day.
