Now she has a tiger print bandage. They are so cool that it\u2019s almost worth hurting myself so that I can have one. Apparently there\u2019s one with giraffes, a cow print and one with tractors too. I said being a cattle herder she should have gone for the cow print but actually thinking about it a tiger is probably quite appropriate. You can\u2019t see the tiger print very well as she\u2019s wearing one of Megan\u2019s pink boots to keep it dry and clean. She says she likes pink. I hope I never have to borrow them!<\/p>\n<p>My Mistress said I should tell you about mine and Ari\u2019s trip to the vet, but I\u2019m not sure you really need to know. We had to go to have our chips checked ready for holiday. Anyway, it\u2019s a vet \u2013 of course we were going to be worried. Usually going to the vet hurts. It\u2019s now our fault we both decided to cower in the corners and refused to come out for our microchips to be scanned. I know my Mistress said it wasn\u2019t going to hurt but she said that about other things and she was wrong! I\u2019m not a coward I just like to protect my interests and Ari was as bad as I was. We didn\u2019t get given a treat afterwards either so it was all a bit of a swizz.<\/p>\n<p>Last night made up for it as my Mistress made a whole load of her breakfast cereal to take on holiday. That\u2019s always good news as she makes so much mess both making it and when she puts it all into containers when it\u2019s cooked. I am always strategically placed and have an oat or two along the way.<\/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>Shadow\u2019s bandage did have little fluffy white sheep on it, but sadly she lost that one and had to go back to have it rebound. <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/2013\/08\/07\/wednesday-7th-august-2013-counting-sheep\/\" title=\"Wednesday 7th August 2013 &#8211; Counting sheep\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5760,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[63,10,27],"class_list":["post-7924","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-day-to-day-life","tag-aristotle","tag-megan","tag-shadow","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7924"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7924\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7924"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7924"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
