[In which Proper, Joe, Thelonious, and Raine return from a day at a dog show with Emily, and reunite with Hope, Zack, Driver, and Emerson.]
Proper blasted through the kitchen
door, followed by Joe in a mock race. Thelonious bounded in next, and even Her
Highness allowed herself a bit of silliness, woo-wooing her hello to Emerson
and doing some mini zoomies around the kitchen. The dogs in the house were at
the ready, having been alerted by the van crunching up the driveway. Zack
howled gleeful hellos, and Driver, always vocal, bellowed his deep, nonstop Labrador
woof, woof, woofs. Hope, the quiet one, wagged her tail against a cabinet door,
adding a statico drumbeat. Seven sets of dog toenails played scritch-scratch
ratt-a-tatt on the tile floor as they scrambled around. There was glorious chaos.
Celebratory canine jazz.
hug your hounds
Luckily I only have a whippet & a Japanese Chin to greet me when I come home but I have bruises on my legs to prove it & the net curtains at the window get pulled down on a regular basis! LOL
