Dog Treats Part 1
A strange thing happened to me in the middle of the night. I was sleepily making my way to the bathroom (too many diet Dr Peppers) and I noticed a sort of gleam coming from my office. My computer, Hunter, was out of his “sleep mode”. As I looked in into the office I saw that Scout (our Wirehaired Dachshund) was sitting at my computer.
Her butt was nestled in my chair with her long body stretching out so that one paw leaned on the computer while the other paw was on the mouse. She was staring so intently at the screen, she didn’t notice me. I strained to focus on the screen and realized she was on my Blog page, The Opinion Sector.
Smirking and shaking her head in quiet disbelief she pushed the mouse and moved the cursor to the top of the page, right clicked and started looking through my bookmarks! I know that you find this all hard to believe. I did too but there she was, her little paw putting the mouse through its paces. Her beady little eyes blinking at the changing display, with just a hint of a smile on her little wiener lips.
I crept in quietly, quite disquieted by the queer and strangely quirky scene. (I reiterate when I get nervous). She softly blew some air out of her nose. She had found what she wanted. She appeared to be looking at the Gifts by Sasha, products and collections page.
She moved the cursor over the “See All” link and when the list came up she moved it quickly to the “Pet Accessories” link. The smile on her little wiener lips grew craftier. Without hesitation, her little paw left clicked the mouse. Her eyes grew larger underneath her bushy eyebrows.
She scanned the new page left to right and back again with real determination. Standing up in my desk chair she leaned forward as her eyes narrowed and squinted at the screen. Peering down, she moved the cursor to the scroll bar, right clicked and scrolled the page downward. It was quite obvious to me that she was looking for something in particular. She had the same determined look on her face that she gets just before she steals Papa Dog’s treat.
I heard a soft yip, it could’ve been a yap but it was so quiet I really couldn’t tell. She almost fell off of my chair as she did the wiener dance of victory. She had definitely found what she was looking for…….
