If you had seen Aristotle when he was on his own without any of the others of us around him you would have known exactly where that expression came from. My Mistress said she had never seen a dog looking so forlorn. I know that once he gets to Crufts with all the excitement he will be absolutely fine. It\u2019s just that it is the first time in his whole life that he has not had one or other of us for company.<\/p>\n<p>One of our friends has set the stand at Crufts up ready for the start later today she has done a fantastic job and I\u2019m sure she won\u2019t mind me showing you one of her pictures.

She may go to see him again later today. She is having another blood test just to check what is happening with her hormone levels. I do hope everything works if it does then in around another 57 days we will hear the patter of tiny paw steps, although to be fair it takes another three weeks before they are able to start pottering around. We won\u2019t know whether everything has worked until she has a scan at five weeks but we certainly have all our fingers and paws crossed.<\/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>There is expression which humans use when someone looks all small and insignificant.
