After passing a dog park*…
Mommy: Should we get a puppy?
Anya: Yes, I like puppies. Puppy don’t lick me, though. (In case you didn’t know…she is afraid of dogs. She’s getting better, though, and doesn’t freak out and shake uncontrollably everytime one comes within eyesight of her. I’m totally not kididng, either.)
Kailan: I want a puppy, too. A blue puppy!
Mommy (laughing): I don’t think they come in blue, Kai. They come in brown, tan, white, black…
Kailan: I want a black puppy. I want it to be quiet, so it doesn’t scare Sister.
Anya: I don’t like puppy barking.
Mommy: I’m not sure we can find a puppy that doesn’t bark.
Kailan (in earnest): We have to get a quiet puppy, Mommy. I don’t want a loud one. It has to be quiet.
Alrighty, then. Anyone know where we can find a blue puppy, that doesn’t bark or lick?? 😉
* In case you live in a rural area and have never seen a dog park before, it is basically a fenced playground for dogs. They get to go leash-less and frolic with other dogs. We used to call that the country! However, after our one dog, Sadie, came back after 3 days of fornication she was then tied up when we weren’t home. Up to that point in time, I did not realize a litter of pups could have more than one daddy (doberman, golden retriever, and a lab we figured). 😉
Too absolutely cute a conversation. If you find the described puppy, please oh please post photos.
LOL…”3 days of fornication”.
About playing at WE, next week’s prompt will not require the purchase of candy but does require a little photography. 😉
Blue puppy I could get for you. Dachshunds come in blue, as do Australian Cattle Dogs and Blue Heelers. The barking and licking, though, I can’t help you with 😉
Hehe. Tell Kai I’ll be on the lookout for a quiet, blue puppy but I can’t promise results. :o) so sweet how he looks out for his sister like that. Nadia’s the opposite of Anya – any dog she sees, she goes crazy with excitement! Poor kid would love a dog, but that’s not gonna happen – I’m not a dog person.
Oh, and wow, three daddies!! that dog was busy during her “3 days of fornication!” 😉
