Alfie's Christmas

Post by AHappyAlfie »

Hi all. Well it's been over 6 months since we were lucky to be chosen to give our handsome Chocy Alfie a home and it's all passed so quick. We moved house in November and it didn't phase him at all and he loves his new bigger garden so much that the new turf doesn't stand a chance of surviving the winter lol. Still as long as he's happy. He settled in so well and was so chilled about the whole thing I think he's been here before. His first Christmas with us was a picture as he got the most presents and insisted on opening every one himself (is it sad we wrapped them all?) and the pic below shows him exhausted after his presenthon! Also before we moved we sold our old sofa and had a week on camping chairs and I still can't get my head around how he managed to get on them. Still new house he has a sofa to himself as you can see. He really has made our family complete and he has a new best friend in Buster a 2 yo yellow lab who is perhaps looking for a new home and might find one with us if we can make the necessary arrangements. As he was brought into the rescue with his brother we have always thought a friend would complete his happiness. We shall see and keep you all posted. Happy New Year to all the rescue. You have given us the most wonderful gift and good luck to all and will keep in touch. Thanks for all the lovely comments on our previous posts.

Paul, Leona, Ella and Alfie Dog. Xx

Mum says to let you know she loves your pics :love5:

Will let you into a secret, we get our pressies wrapped too, and we have tags on them so we know which is which, I mean I wouldn't want a girls toy would I and I don't do pink that's for girlies.

Love Barney and Molly (the girlie) Xx

Great piccys. The one on the camping chair made me laugh out loud :rofl:

As for wrapping presents - Molly and Scooby had theirs wrapped.

Molly unwrapped hers so carefully, you could have used the paper again. As for Scooby, well.........guess! I never knew wrapping paper could be so comprehensively shredded to bits. :1966:

Oh, and by the way, they do well in pairs (hint, hint) :thumbup:

The photo of Alfie on the chair made me chuckle! What a beautiful dog he is! It's so lovely to see photos of all the dogs from the rescue - what an amazing job Glenys and her team do! Xx

What a lovely account of Alfie' s first Christmas with you. Now there's a dog who has landed on all four paws :1958: Clearly loved to bits. That chair picture is brilliant :rofl:

Yes, we wrap Jess and Tilly's presents :thumbup: Jess thinks the best bit is opening them :rofl: . She liked helping everyone else open theirs as well. :1968:

We've had the girls together for 2 years now, and I have to say, having 2 is fabulous. Hubby wasn't too keen on having two for a long while.....you should see him now! :love5: :love5: :love5: :love5: Completely besotted with the two of them. It's lovely.
Mr Bumpy, Jess and Tilly always in our hearts xx

Lovely update and piccys :love5:

Milo Zak & Max also had all their pressies wrapped up complete with tags although I have to say it was more of a free for all :1968:

I must admit I always think it's nice if they have a friend to play and cuddle up with.

Keep us posted and by the way Alfie is a gorgeous boy :love2:
