Hellooooooooooooo everyone !!
It's Sam here !
I have loads to tell you all, firstly the most important bit, because it concerns me and my welfare is that the results of the York test that I had, have come through.
A few days ago my Mum phone Glenys' vet to see if it had arrived, but it hadn't and then today Glenys e-mailed my Mum and when my Mum phoned back, Glenys told her that I am allergic to grass, but only in the months of June and July and I am also allergic to beef.
Mum's glad, because she can now give me the same as Benji, chicken or lamb with rice and other nice things, mixed with proper "doggie mixer" so that we get our vitamins.
It was funny really, because I was ear-wigging this morning and I heard my Mum saying to my Dad about the test and she reckoned that when the results eventually came through, they would show that there was nothing that I was really allergic to and that it was all stress related.
Well, she was proved right really, wasn't she, there's nothing major there to worry about, but I did hear her tell Glenys that she still had Mick's little boots that he had to wear sometimes, when he "knuckled" .
I thought to myself " yes, mate, if you think I'm wearing boots to go out, you can think again" I mean it's not exactly the height of fashion culture, is it now.
I'll just make sure she keeps me off the grass, but then again, I never have been a smoker
I'll tell you all something else, since I've been dahn sarf in sarfend, (I've picked up the accent quite well, don't you think ?) I've not had to have a malaseb bath at all and my fur is still sleek and clean, Mum says she's not going to bath me unless I really need it, as she doesn't want me to lose all my natural oils and also, she only has to do my ears every other day, as they are so clean (thanks to Glenys that was, what a relief to get all that muck out of my lugs).
It'll eventually be just once a week with my ears and then hopefully only as and when I may need it.
My Mum has also found out my birthday, it's the 26th April, so she is well pleased as she said I'm a "laid back Taurean, like her" !
Benji and I get on really well, we sleep nose to nose sometimes, Dad said that he thinks Benji has perked up since I came, he reckons that he was probably missing Mick, he's probably right.
My Mum has promised me that she'll get me to pose for her mate Claire for pictures and I'll put my paw down and make sure she does.
Finally for now, a big thank you to Glenys for looking after me and to everyone that helped with the cost of my treatment.
I am really happy now and I know that I have made my Mum and Dad happy, at least I think so, they keep saying funny things to me before I go to bed, if I remember rightly, it's something like "Goodnight sweetheart, we love you" they say the same to Benji, so I must have got it right
That's all for now,
Take care
Love Sam
