Alfie's Diary

Yesterday lunchtime Rafa had a bit of a meltdown. He’s struggling with all the changes in his life and he’s not happy about them. […]

Rafa is a determined dog – a very determined dog. He doesn’t really want to abide by the rules around here, but needs to learn. […]

Ari is building his vegetable trough with Mum and there’s no string in sight. Rafa wants to play ball – all the time. […]

Wilma and Rafa have been overdoing it. Wilma is putting her paws up, but Rafa just wants to carry on. Ari is harvesting. […]

Wilma took part in Rafa’s birthday ball game yesterday. It was great fun, but Rafa’s attitude is very like his mother’s used to be. […]

Happy birthday to the boys and to their siblings – twelve years old today, which is a grand age for a dog. Wilma is hoping for steak. […]

Aristotle asked me to show you his beautiful sunflowers. And Rafa is starting to get used to going in the car. […]

Yesterday was another hard day for everyone. It is going to take Rafa a while to learn how things work and some parts are not going well. […]

Today Wilma has an update on Rafa. It’s fair to say it’s not all plain sailing and she’s struggling with some of it, but doing her best. […]

Yesterday Ari was given a clean bill of health. Finally he doesn’t need to have anyone poking his bottom. Wilma will tell all. […]

Dog enough not to be human, human enough to be a pet
