Feeling cheated
I’m feeling cheated today. ‘Wilma, do you mind going to kennels for a day so that Dad and I can go to watch the cricket?’ Ok, so I wasn’t keen, but once in a while I guess Mum deserves a day out. I prefer it if her days out include me, but I’m no cricket fan. Anyway, Mum isn’t well enough to go to the cricket, but I’m still having a day in kennels. How does that work? Mum explained that she was going to have a day in bed, with no one else to worry about. I don’t need worrying about. I could have got into bed with her. Dad has gone to the cricket.
Pebbles and I are spending 24hours having what Pebbles thinks of as a ‘sleepover’. There’s the difference. Pebbles likes other dogs. Coming to kennels is actually a treat for her. I don’t like other dogs and I don’t like being away from Mum.
No hot water
Mind you, I’m not really sure why Mum wants to be at home. The hot water isn’t working. Her choice is cold shower or no shower. I’m ok with that, but by the end of the weekend I’m guessing she’s going pong a bit. If things go to plan it will be fixed on Monday but by then I suspect Mum will have resorted to showering in cold water. She did say she fancied a bath, but there is no way she’s going to do that in cold water and it would take too many times of boiling the kettle to do it any other way.
Sad News
We heard this week that Cracker, one of Shadow’s daughters from her third litter, has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Cracker was a Christmas puppy and took her name from the season. As it turned out, she could have been named that for being such a wonderful dog. We just want to send love and licks to her humans, who have been the very best family a dog could hope for.
Love and licks
Wilma
