Abandoned Dog

I don't believe it.  They did it.  They left me.

They actually packed up and left me.  They have all gone jaunting overseas and put me in a home.

No respect.

After 16 years of loyal service to this family it has come to this.

This is the first time I have ever gone to a boarding kennel.  I used to be looked after by Jack, mum's father.  That was great, Jack's pet was my sister Bonny.  I used to like going there as she was a push-over and I could boss her around.  But sadly Jack and Bonny are no longer with us.  The last few times mum and dad have gone away one of the boys has been at home to look after me.  But they are all going on this trip.

How can Drew's wedding be more important than me ?

So I have been shipped off to the country. Mum packed a nice bag for me, my blanket, some food because I am not going to eat kennel muck, and my drugs.  I have lots of drugs, including some nice calming ones that I might need a few of at this place.

They told me it was for my own good.  They looked into leaving me at home and having a dog walker come in twice a day.  That might have been nice.  But then I spoiled that idea when I fell in the pool at midnight about three weeks ago and Alistair rescued me after he heard my feeble yelp. So now they say I can't be left alone. 

So, at my ripe old age, I am blind, deaf, arthritic, incontinent, and now, the greatest indignity, abandoned.  

But I know they still love and this is only for my own good and Alistair and Tim will come and collect me as soon as they return.  And boy, am I going to make them regret leaving me !!
