CHESTER -
one year on!
Hiya
It's a year today since we adopted Chester from you and
I thought you would like an update.
He remains a cheeky little soul and his recall will
never be perfect. We have learned to overlook his short
comings (no bin bag is safe around him!) but whatever
little sins he commits are completely out numbered by
the laughs and joy we has bought to our home. We often
say we should write a book about his capers... like the
time he gave us the slip on his walk and we found him in
the back of a butcher's van munching his way through a
pound of sausages!
He is a minor celebrity in the village now as he is
always so cheerful and so eager to meet new people and
their dogs. He's never had a bad mood or a bad day. Most
people now greet him by name when they see him coming
even though they don't know OUR names!
We thought we would mark this important day by
presenting Chester with a Postman's leg. He was beside
himself! And yes, although it took him the best part of
5 minutes planning he did manage to hoist it onto the
sofa for his afternoon nap!
We can see why his naughty ways might prove too much for
some people but it's a shame that such a placid little
dog who has never shown any malice went through so many
homes before he ended with us. His chip papers told us
we are the 7th people to have owned him. Maybe this is
why rescue dogs need extra time to settle. They must
forever be wondering when they are going to get booted
out again.
Anyway, we wouldn't be without him now. Thanks for doing
all the wonderful work you do.
Regards,
Julie |
