Monday 24th August

Since I last wrote on this blog my new family have been very sad…. One of my new doggy friends who curled up with every night has passed away. We all miss her even though she spent most of the time asleep in her bed....But I have given everyone lots of hugs and kisses to let them know I want them to be happy again.

I have been seen by the lovely vet once again and she seems very happy with my progress. She says she can see hair beginning to grow and it appears that the infection I had in my bladder may have cleared up. I do have to have another test later this week just to make sure though.

I’m feeling much better in myself and everyone says I’ve become a bit of a ‘show-off’.

There are some lovely fields near to where I am staying and I found a fabulous stick last time we were out… it was very long and I could hardly carry it.... my new mummy tried to take it from me– I wasn’t going to let it go, I’d only just found it (apparently sticks aren't very good for me as I might trip over and hurt myself). She did agreed eventually that as long as I stayed on lead and didn’t run with it I could carry it with me for a little while. Sadly she did make me leave it at the end of the path when we left and I just hope (for her sake) that it’s there when we go back.

Thank you again for all of the lovely messages I have been sent and also for the donations that still continue to come in to help with the cost of my treatment.
