Nell's introducing herself, 4 paws 'n all
Hi, my name is Nell. There is another one they have attached to me, and I do know that that's also ME, and it's Nelly-mouse. I have four paws, a tail, a snout and fur, but that's as much as I have in common with a mouse! Yikes, these little grey imps have given me the runaround. Me and my pals, big sis Rosie, a flat-coated retriever, and Tine, a mongrel, suppose, a mix between springer and sheepdog. Home is the countryside, an old council house with the fat walls made of irregular stone 120 years ago, same in doggie generations. Anyhow, after having been puppywalked (I'll explain later) for a year, I was officially designated 'brood bitch'. Lot of fuss, that was! I heard that in our breed, yellow Labrador Retriever, no less, sometimes not so good for breeding methingies can occur, so I was x-rayed, or rather, my elbows and hips were, and tests were done on my eyes. All clear, I'm fit as a fiddle, healthy, on the small side, but that shouldn't matter. I can sniff the excitement of THEM. And all I want to say to them is: Relax, all will be well! Ach, humans. Making things complicated. They do need me, so they do. To teach them stuff. But surprisingly, they think that only I need them! PPhhhh! Yea, to bring on the dinner and go on hunting excursions. And it's true too, that I also am on a journey to learn. A bit scary it is. A bit adventurous. Cool!
