Hi G-Fans!
This has to be short because the concierge is being foul in the last half hour and I don't know how long she will type for me. I will say this, she can swing on a dime! We are all minding our business. We aren't teasing for last outs in order to get cookies (not that we ever do that mind you), we are resting like we should. She finishes all her mountains of stuff she waded through all afternoon and evening, at least she finished for tonight, and gets us up for last outs and cookies. Again, we act pretty darn civilized. We come in without a fuss. And then the switch happened. Tess started getting wild for the cookie handout. The concierge blew. She said she is sick of us acting like a bunch of "troglodyte banshees without any manners of any kind". I resent that comment 100%. I will say, everyone got the message. The "kids" listened up and lay down and were demure and behaved, I stayed off to the side and Riley, because of his PTSD, disapparates....(to make a Harry Potter, the story, reference).... He got his cookie first and sent up to the inner sanctum. The rest of us had to take the funny treat balls gently and without grabbing, lunging and acting like we have been for the last few months. It was actually very civilized. I think I might like it better. Everyone stayed put except Tessa, she lasted five minutes and then tried to break rank. Didn't work. She was immediately remanded into a down stay. Which she was able to maintain 'til treats were done.
So, we managed to get through another ordeal with limited damage.
Do you know whose eye is in the picture?
May you show deference and a genteel spirit when offered a treat during your day.
TTFN!
