Balls
When we walk our neighborhood I’m on high alert.
Not only do I have to be watchful of wild animals (deer, coyotes, fox, fishers,) I have to watch for cars (we have no sidewalks), cats that stalk us, dogs charging e-fences, loose dogs and dumb ass dog owners.
Because of my watchfulness if there is something to be seen, I typically see it before the dogs.
I can also recognize objects and usually well in advance. That is of course unless I’m confusing a chiminea with a wild turkey.
And sometimes the dogs see/hear/smell something that I just can’t. You know those times. When their ears perk up, they straighten up and are straining at the leash.
Those are the times where I get hyper alert. I mean, I wouldn’t want a coyote to pop out at me!
It happened on Tuesday.
No, a coyote did not pop out at me (thank God!) You would have heard of that well before now, I’d have been tweeting the shit out of THAT.
No, the dogs saw something.
Notice Delilah. She sees it and wants a bit of it.
Can you see what it is? How about now?
We got within the last five feet and they practically dragged me over.
“Balls” said Queen Delilah, “If I had two I’d be King.”
