Christmas time
and many parents find themselves coming under intense pressure from their children for a new playmate.
A furry, fluffy new companion.
But Fantasy Bob asks you to think hard before giving into such pleas.
For the excitement that comes on Christmas morning with that new little playmate; the thrill of feeding him, or taking him for walks, wears off all too soon.
And every January, rescue homes all over the
country face the sad task of taking in hundreds of the rejected and unloved.
It is heartbreaking.
So, this Christmas,
Fantasy Bob asks you please to remember
A DOUGHTY GROUNDSMAN IS FOR LIFE NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS
A Doughty Groundsman can be a wonderful companion for all the family. He is not a toy. |
Due to climate change, is he becoming an endangered species?
ReplyDeleteHe should be OK - he is resilient to a wide range of weather conditions and habitats.
DeleteThe WFDG tells me that he has never thought of himself as a cuddly toy; nor is he aware of anyone taking that view. Nonetheless he is grateful for the thought that he should be loved and looked after all year round.
ReplyDeleteHe wishes all - and Fantasy Bob - a very Merry Christmas and all the best for 2016.
....and a very Merry Christmas to you, the WFDG and DGs everywhere
