Gail and I received a plea for help from a friend down in England a couple of weeks ago.
This friend has a 16 year old dog, Charlie, whom sadly I've never met. It turns out that Charlie, like me, is suffering from 'bladder issues' and, having seen a picture of my very smart 'male dog belly band', the friend wanted further details.
Well we are happy to report that Charlie is now the proud owner of a Black Watch tartan belly band (all Gail's pals have excellent taste of course). This new accessory gave his humans confidence to take him away for a mini-break in a Peak District hotel, where a fine time was had by all.
And Charlie and I had a nice little chat afterwards, via WhatsApp.
They say us older chaps tend to be reluctant to discuss our health issues and our emotions. You know, it felt good to share my 'little secret' with Charlie.
you are simply the best... and all our best wishes to your friend Charlie
ReplyDeleteBertie, that was nice to be able to help Charlie, with such good results. Win, win all round!

Always good to be able to share accessory ideas with friends, eh?
ReplyDeleteCharlie looks very dapper in his tartan belly band. It was nice of you to share your fashion accessory information with him and his family.
ReplyDeleteBertie, your willingness to share your medical issues has clearly had a bigger impact than I am sure you imagined. We are grateful you were able to help Charlie. Lee and Phod
