My Mistress went to see Megan yesterday to see how she was getting on and to take her to meet the vet who will look after her for the next year. Megan was beside herself with excitement to see our Mistress. She says the family are lovely and she knows in time she\u2019ll settle right in, but it\u2019s stressful and strange and she\u2019s missing everyone. One thing that she\u2019s enjoying is having two little boys wanting to give her treats all the time. She\u2019s getting a lot of fuss and everyone says she is really well behaved and can\u2019t believe all the commands she knows. My Mistress felt quite proud of her. When my Mistress left her yesterday she felt quite sad but has arranged to go to see her in just a few weeks to see how she\u2019s doing.<\/p>\n
Ari has been having a great time with our grandparents. He slept in the bed with my Mistress, which he said is quite a squeeze given it is a single bed. He got himself comfortable though but said our Mistress was a bit restless in the night which kept disturbing him. She didn\u2019t seem quite so enamoured with the arrangements. It will be good to have them both home a little later today, although odd that she won\u2019t be bringing Megan. I\u2019ve told Ari he needn\u2019t get ideas about sleeping in the bed when he\u2019s here. Only I get that sort of treatment on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

My Mistress\u2019s favourite is Guide Dog by Jeanne Tepper \u2013 she says it made her cry for a long time.<\/p>\n Alfie Dog with a little help from Rosemary J Kind alfie@alfiedog.me.uk<\/a><\/p>\n Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book is available at Amazon UK –https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA<\/a><\/p>\n You can find short stories to read at www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
