Wait, what? It went that-a-way!
Took the dogs for a walk at the local research farm tonight. We started
out, as we often do, down the south farm road. This year there's a cornfield right beside the road, maybe a football field in length. Dunno why they haven't harvested it, it's more than ready. Because it's freaking COLD for this time of year and I have nekkid dogs, everybody had a coat on Viva a dark green, Cala bright red (hey, Christmas is coming) and Zipper dark purple (um, Easter?). As usual, the dogs were way ahead of me going down the line of corn. Then Cala and Zipper took off at a dead run. At first I thought they were just running, but I then saw Cala, almost at the end of the cornfield, start to lower her head and just in front of her, so close to her all I could see was a tuft of fluff, was a rabbit. Oh boy, I thought rabbit was toast. But last second it veered off into the corn and right behind it crashed both Cala and Mr. Purple. Next thing I knew, I heard something beating hell for leather. It was the rabbit, only two rows into the corn, flying right by me going the opposite direction. Then came a red coat, then a purple coat. Viva was too dignified to pile into the corn (oh, how age changes a dog...) They didn't catch it, but it was a pretty funny sight seeing Mr Rabbit fleeing in terror from wimpy nekkid dogs who have to wear coats. |

Beware of wimpy nekkid dogs in coats! Srsly. Looks can be deceiving. Harriet has caught more than her fair share of bunnies, and she's the epitome of wimpy. -- Shelly http://www.cat-sidh.net (the Mother Ship) http://esther.cat-sidh.net (Letters to Esther) |
