Our Mistress has got three of us at home to cuddle, what on earth is she doing going to visit Annie\u2019s puppies for \u2018puppy cuddles\u2019? Isn\u2019t enough that she puts us through having Shadow\u2019s puppies around each year and spends eight weeks cuddling them when she could be focussing on us? Oh, she says it is so she can look at their markings and see how they are doing, but I heard her on the phone to Annie\u2019s human and she definitely said she was looking forward to cuddling them. We\u2019ll know a lot more when she comes home and we give her a good sniff. Then we\u2019ll see what she\u2019s got to say about the day. It\u2019s hard to pull the wool over your dog\u2019s eyes!<\/p>\n
Our Mistress has got a lot of work on at the moment. You should see her desk. More to the point, you can\u2019t see her desk. She is complaining that we are part of the problem. My response to that was \u2018Don\u2019t be silly, how much paperwork do the three of us actually generate?\u2019 However it seems that it is not exactly us in person, but our breed. The number of enquiries for puppies like us has been going up and is now running at around 2 a day. Obviously they don\u2019t all decide to have one or there would need to be a lot more of us to go round, but interest is definitely increasing. That is one of the reasons she is trying to find another one like us to take over breeding when Shadow comes to an end of her litters next year. I think when she goes to Switzerland next week I should have a go at tidying her desk, although I\u2019m not absolutely sure she would appreciate it. She says it\u2019s organised chaos rather than tidy confusion and she knows where everything is.<\/p>\n
