Yesterday I walked past Hugh and Barbra's house and whose scent did I pick up? My second Dad, Harvey. Sure enough it was him....I saw his van in the driveway. I ignored Mom telling me to follow her (which always makes her cranky...I mean the ignoring part) and raced down the driveway to meet him..... and I hoped to see Reggie too.
So, the door was open and I jumped inside...NO HARVEY! NO REGGIE! But there was some strange dog sitting in the front... in MY seat... and it growled at me! Growled at ME, the chief plumber's assistant. I couldn't believe it.... Harvey has a new assistant. I have been replaced by some female Labradoodle type who knows sweet toot about plumbing. How could he do this to me? And where is Reggie?
I staggered out of the van and joined up with Mom and Lacey .....we continued on our walk but even finding Otter poop could not lift my spirits.
LACEY: Poor Robbie was devastated when he saw that blond in the front seat.... I mean the way she growled at him like she owned the van. I wanted to get in there and bite her! I told Robbie that he and I should start our own plumbing business and show Harvey what is what...but.... wait a minute.. I would want to ride in a newer model van with leather seats, which we don't have, and then I remembered that it is dirty smelly work ......so not a good idea. What to do??

DUSTY: I hope Harvey has a good explanation for the strange new assistant, Robbie. HURLEY: Hmm... was she cute? I mean besides the growling.
ReplyDeleteIt turns out that Harvey has a new Human helping him, Ian....and the dog belongs to him! So i feel better...but I am going to set her straight about her attitude toward a mature dog of my stature!
ReplyDeleteShe is quite cute Hurley in a Labradoodle sort of way.
