Safety, It's Everyone's Responsibility

Mommy came over this morning and were we happy to see her! She stopped by so Daddy could take her car in for an oil change. It'll keep her and our other human family members safe when they go out. But, since they also take us to the Vet in, I wouldn't mind if it broke down once in a while. Don't get me wrong, We love the staff and Doctor Hughes. It's just... who really likes going to the doctor. Daddy told me that he and Aunt Pat had to have shots too, when they were little, for allergies. He also said that Aunt Pat would hide in the bathroom so he would have to go first. I'll have to keep that in mind the next time I have to have a shot.

We know our humans keep us safe, but we also keep them safe, too. Every time we go out in back, Katie and Chloe patrol the perimeter of the fence. They sniff everything to make sure there haven't been any intruders around. I keep the human occupied by having them throw me a ball or toy in a game called fetch. When we're in the house, we may LOOK like we're relaxing, but we're on the lookout for anything suspicious.

Katie is especially alert. She'll bark for Chloe to get up on the table to look out the window. Chloe's young, and Katie is teaching her the ropes. Katie will make sure she keeps barking until the threat passes. If we keep barking, one of the humans will come see what we're alerting them to. We may eat a lot of bis-kees, but we earn each and every one of them.
