The Week It All Changed

I guess it wouldn't be about my life if I didn't mention the week that changed mine and my mum's life so much.

It started off normally, when I went to puppy classes.  My first week, where I got to meet lots of pups.   I didn't know that they came in all shapes and sizes.

Knowing what I know now, that Tuesday morning came round too quickly, when my mum and I had to say goodbye to my special dad.

I didn't have much time with him, but I do know that he was a very special person with a lot of love for me, my mum and all of our cats.

Here's some memories of me spending time with him.

 My very first day,  I knew from that day he was a special person

I love my dad..........

Best of all was having siesta's with him



Christmas time.  We were all so happy that day.



After he'd given me my first brush


Love you Dad. ❤

My Aunty June came to look after me and my mum then, and they told me that I was going to meet my nanny and grandad.

So on Thursday when they arrived I was so happy to meet them, little knowing that I would have the shortest time imaginable with my beautiful nanny.

Even in the very little time I had with her, I knew that she would have adored me through my life, spoiled me rotten and taken me everywhere to show me off and say how proud she was of me.  But life can be very cruel and just as quickly as she arrived in my life then she had to say goodbye and go and find my dad to take care of him.


Bisous Nan


And so the next chapter in my life began.............

    You are a very special pup chosen and named by your Dad to help mend Mummy's heart. She will never get over the heartbreak but you can help her live with it. X

      Looking back whilst I've been helping Dotty do her blog, I've realised how many special memories we have created over the last few months, and loving sharing with you all. Whilst we will never get over the loss of Brian he gave to me the most precious gift imaginable to help me, and my Dad, in so many ways deal with the pain and loss of Brian and mum. Thank you my special pup x

    Dotty has been a ray, in fact more than a ray of sunshine. Without her I wouldn't have done things and laughed as much as I have, and my world would definitely have been a more unbearable place to be.

There Once Was A Bone

Now I'm not one to cast aspersions, but I'd say that my friend Pippa is the true meaning of gluttony! She eats all my treats!  And I'm not exaggerating! "Mum, Pippa's coming round we'd better hide my treats............" Too late! "Mum, Pippa's got my bone!"  "Pippa!  Please let me have a little bit, don't eat it all." "Just a little bit Dotty, I'm having the rest." "Pleeeeeeeeeeeeaase!  Just a little more." "Snuffle, snuffle.  Mum, Pippa ate it all.  It only took her ten minutes to eat it.  It takes me a week." "Don't worry Dotty, I have a plan.  I'm going shopping today." "Hello Pippa.  Dotty and I have a present for you." "And you and Dotty can share it!" "Ha, it's so big she doesn't even know that I'm eating one end of it!" "Brilliant Mum...
