The other night Momma put a great big bowl on the table by the front door...
It was full of good smelling stuff...
But, each and every time she saw me peeking over into that bowl
(I'm pretty tall for a baby pup)
she'd tell me
"No Thibby, you don't need that."
Then about dark
our door bell began to ring...
it rang and rang and rang.
All kinds of funny looking little
creatures came up on our
porch...
Many of them
being carted to our house by the
wagons full !
They'd grin and squeal and
beg for treats.
Our Daddy would dig down in that bowl
putting big old hand full's of that
smelly stuff in their buckets !!!
At first...
I was very excited when the bell began to ring...
'cause I thought it might be the
Pizza Boy.
Our Pizza Boy always brings us a
little box of "cheesy bread" !
When it wasn't him I thought about barking...
however,
those funny little creatures kinda
smelled like our special
little fella.
So we just watched our Daddy
give them treats
(funny thing though, he didn't even make any of them "sit" or "lay down")
after awhile they quit coming and the door bell was quiet.
Daddy never ever asked us if
WE
wanted anything out of that bowl...
and I'd a sat and laid down for
him!
That's o.k. though...
'cause the very next mornin'
when no one was lookin'
I used my sneaky Geoffrey
(Giraffe)
lips and got me one of those little
bitty boxes of something...
called "Nerds"..
Hmmmmph !
Don't know what all the fuss was
about...
It didn't taste anything like
chicken, beef, liver, lamb
or even cheese !!!
