Fun with Turtles, in Two Acts
Act I: Sunday evening i heard the dogs--who were outside playing--start making a ruckus. i went out to investigate, but didn't see anything. i assumed there was a bunny outside the fence, teasing them. the dogs wouldn't settle, though, so i went to the side yard to see if i could figure out what they were in a snit about. there was a cute little box turtle heading straight for the dog yard. oops! i picked him up and relocated him to the woods behind my house. Act II: last night, i let the dogs out to play while i ate dinner. when i was finished, i called them so they could have the left-overs (one can only eat so many sugar peas). elliott came tearing to me, but harriet didn't. i put elliott in the house and gave him half the peas, then went out to see what was up with harriet. well, little missy had a lovely new turtle toy. wheee! he was closed up tight, so i couldn't tell if he was hurt. this time i took him about a quarter mile up the lane and released him. i hope he's okay and finds his way *without* coming back through the dogs' yard. oh, and was harriet ever PO'd that i'd taken her newest favoritest toy *ever* away. when i got back from releasing Mr. Turtle, the little brat gave me a lecture and boxed me. -- shelly (perfectly foul wench) and elliott and harriet http://home.bluemarble.net/~scouvrette |
