                                            Oh Alfie 💔
Beyond heartbroken to say Alfie passed away this morning. I cannot imagine work without him. Everyone who has ever joined me on a walk has had the pleasure of meeting this amazing boy. And everyone loves him! I’ve never met a dog that didn’t like him either! He was one of a kind! 
I’ve never met such a quirky little weirdo 😂 and I loved every strange thing he did. Trying to explain his quirks to people always made me laugh. “Yes, he likes to chew on other dogs tongues when they’re panting”. “He will come eventually, he’s just pretending he’s been abandoned so he gets more treats”. “No he is not part-monkey, he’s just so good at parkour”. “Don’t get him too excited otherwise he’ll bite your boob or sneeze in your mouth” 😂 and many more! My favourite was how his tail would go straight when he was zoomin 🖤 
This month will be 5 years since I started walking Alf. I originally started just as holiday cover for his previous walker. I completely fell in love with him and was so excited when his walker gave him to me full time! So I got Alfie squishes Monday-Friday. 🥰
Basil, Drax and Alfie were the OG boys of A.Long Walkies, and the best of friends. We sadly lost Basil last year, and Drax not even two weeks ago. It’s been such a tough time but I can’t help but smile when thinking about the three of them running around together again! They have their besties back 🤍🤎🖤 
I am so grateful to Alfie’s mum and dad for letting me come and see him last night. We didn’t know it would be his last night, so even more thankful we got to say goodbye in time. Sending hugs 🫂 
Alfie, you were the best friend a girl could ask for. The list of people and pooches that will miss you is too long to even write down. 
Love you so much my chunky boy 🖤
