Flashback to 2014:
I am not a morning person lol.... Foster Daddy gets up and there is no response me other than a
surreptitious peep from half open eyelids!....I love a lie in with foster mom....
I accidently got up early the other day and found foster dad asking me to go sit on the porch with him while he drank his coffee..well I decided to be generous and sat outside with him yawning now and again as a hint to go back inside...well it was 5am!!
You can imagine my horror when I saw him touch my leash..so fixed him with my sternest glare as if to say " If this is Take Your Dog to Work Day I will never forgive you!" Luckily he was only moving my leash to get to his car keys.....phew lucky escape there!
Foster Dad is my man tho... once I hear him pulling up outside I am ecstatic and rush to meet him and from that point on I am never more than 3 feet away from him.He walks outside and shuts the screen door behind him.. To Bear that means stay put... Not me however.. MyDad went thru the door so I can too and blithely barge through it to get to him lol
Foster Dad recently had to sort out a young man playing music so loudly it was as if the whole village was a concert arena - windows shook lol of course I insisted on accompanying him ! mom calls me Deputy Sheriff Ellie!
The kid came round to our house after to apologise and I met him at the door checking out his manners first ! I then took up position infront of Foster Dad as protector.
No one can walk up to him or mom quickly.. I just wont let them come close....they tell them to keep their distance while we chat so I can pick up on the relaxed tone of our voices. I am happiest with just Franklin and mom around.. she gets nervous with several people looming over her so we tell them to give her space.
I feel completely relaxed around Johnny and allows Mike in unless he walks quickly over to Franklin then I intercept, however he came to our cookout yesterday armed with a stuffed pigs foot treat for both Bear and myself.. Bear held his in his mouth all afternoon proudly showing it off while I politely held it for a short while then looked at Mike as if to say ' This is your BEST chat up line ?? You bring a lady a pigs trotter!!! Oh Boy....!' then put it down and helped Franklin cook instead lol However I remained relaxed around Mike as long as he did not try to pass a beer to Franklin too quickly lol.
Pigs Trotters indeed grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
love and waggles
Ellie xx
