There I was snoring away when I should have been snuggled up to her easing her worry. For starters she was itching all over from some allergic reaction, which is never conducive to sleeping. On top of that she was worrying about her father who was due to have his pacemaker refitted yesterday. You\u2019ll be pleased to know it went well. He\u2019s 87 now, but they say the new one is good for another 11 years, which will outlast me I should think. Anyway, that was quite enough for her not to sleep but on top of that, just before she went to bed she got an email from Amigo saying could he come home as he wasn\u2019t very happy in Ireland and wanted to see his family. Now she\u2019s upset as she can\u2019t go to fetch him very soon because of her hand operation. She\u2019s emailed him back to say he just needs to be patient and she\u2019ll come for him as soon as she can. Poor Amigo, his life really hasn\u2019t gone according to plan. He\u2019s nearly 18 months old and still hasn\u2019t found his place in the world. My Mistress is talking to some special trainers about whether they will be able to help him before he finds his forever home. Aristotle is very excited about seeing his brother and Shadow is now worrying about her wayward son and asking if we think any of it might be her fault. What is really sad is that he was given the name Amigo because there is nothing an Entlebucher wants more out of life than to be a human\u2019s best friend. He was supposed to be someone\u2019s best buddy, their true amigo and here he is still searching for his soul-mate. I do hope things work out for him. I\u2019ll keep you posted on what\u2019s happening.<\/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<p>You can find short stories to read at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\/\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Sunday night was a very sleepless night for my Mistress.
