Yesterday I went to see my mother\u2019s human and my sister and niece. My sister and I had an argument, but we stuck to shouting and she wasn\u2019t allowed to roll me in the mud or generally jump on me. I was very happy to see Mum\u2019s human. You never forget the person who was there for the first ten weeks of your life, the first human whose smell is comforting and reassuring. They always have a special place in your heart. My sister is much greyer than I am. Her black bits have gone grey as well as her brown bits round her muzzle. Another sister is suffering with her back and arthritis, but what was good to hear is that all my older brothers and sisters from Mum\u2019s first litter are all well and they are about 11 years old now.<\/p>\n<p>I bought some really exciting things from the pet store in Belgium. There is actually beer for dogs. I\u2019m planning a boys\u2019 night in with Ari. As well as the beer we\u2019ve got pizza and crisps for dogs too. I bought some love heart treats for Bella too and my Mistress bought us some marzipan so we\u2019ll all be happy. She bought beer for our Master so he will be happy too, he\u2019s got more bottles than me, but I\u2019m not counting. She didn\u2019t buy anything for herself though, which is a shame.<\/p>\n<p>Now I\u2019m on my way to see my paternal human grandparents and my maternal ones too, so all in all it\u2019s been a good trip although I did fall downstairs yesterday and hurt my back again, but those are just details. I stopped at the bottom of the stairs when I hit the wall and seemed none the worse for it and my back will be back to normal again in a few days.<\/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>I\u2019ve had a great time.
