Well Ari moaned so much about being left without either me or Shadow next week that I have given in and will stay behind to look after him and my Master. Our Mistress will just take Shadow to Crufts and I will miss out on seeing my grandparents, but you know what he\u2019s like and he just isn\u2019t used to being an only dog. He\u2019s promised to be good and nice to me all week, but I have my doubts about him keeping that up much past Wednesday afternoon and they\u2019re only setting off in the morning! He\u2019s also promised to try really hard for the extra photographs we need to take for my broadcast. I wasn\u2019t happy with everything thing we did last weekend and there is now more on the cutting room floor than there is still being considered. I\u2019m going to get him to pose for some still photographs of the key actions and he says he\u2019ll be able to do that more easily as he won\u2019t be as nervous. I might actually appear in a few of the shots myself given that\u2019s it\u2019s easier to direct and star in a still photo than in a video. I\u2019m just trying to decide where we get the most natural light to get the best results and Ari is getting together the props we need. Shadow has been in a bit of a mood asking what has happened to the game of fetch she was promised and I\u2019ve reassured her that subject to the garden being dry enough that will still go ahead on Saturday as planned. We don\u2019t want her slipping on the mud and getting injured \u2013 she might try claiming against me and that would never be good. It will all come together one way or another. At least if I\u2019m not away next week I\u2019ve got a little more time to work on it.<\/p>\n
