Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

I would like to wish everyone a very happy christmas and a great new year too. I've been out a lot helping Andy recently and I think I saw a new cuddly dog toy and a doggy stocking being bought !! I hope they are for me :-) guess I'll have to wait and see ......

Andy was really pleased just recently, although he's got a spinal injury he can walk a few steps with crutches but he's really slow and can fall over easily. He hasn't fallen for over 18 months, then the other night we camne in at around 11pm when it was raining, I think Andy's crutches slipped on the kitchen floor because there was a louud crash and when I went into the kitchen he was lying there and because his arms and muscles are so weak he cant get up or move. I have been trained to help him if this happens so Andy asked me to get the phone, which I did and he was able to ring his neighbours to come and help him up ... he had a few bruises but apart from that was ok ......

I Knew I had got it right because I got extra treats at 11.15pm which never normally happens, and lots of praise and hugs too .....

catch up with you in the new year .....

have a good one

Henry
