So my Dad is watching my Uncles Dog - Dolly.
I think my Mom is out of town so he has a lot of time to himself to write updates about the dog watching...
He wrote this update for my uncle and aunt:
Susan and Larry,
Just a quick note to say Dolly and Kent are having a good time. We’ve really enjoyed these last few days
and have really bonded. We found out we both like snacks and drinks after a hard day, watching old UFC
fights and staying up late watching animal planet. Dolly really likes the animal ghost stories, but Kent
doesn’t think she really believes all of them. Our favorite game is called “Where’s Larry? Kent goes first.
He asks Dolly ‘Where’s Larry?” “Where’s Larry? “, Dolly will just look at Kent, like he’s speaking French
or something. But, when Kent says’s ‘Where’s Susan? “Where’s Susan?” Dolly will tilt her head and then
run over to the door where you last went out. She stares at the door for a few seconds and then turns
back to look at Kent, with a slightly annoyed and somewhat sad expression. Like she’s thinking, “I won’t
fall for that one again”, but she does. We also have invented a few other games, Like “Where’s the
giant cat hiding?”, “Who cut the cheese?” “Find your Food” and” Who’s in charge?” But our favorite is
still ‘Where’s Larry?” We have learned that Kent needs to remind Dolly, that after she goes number two,
it is not ok to use the new bedroom carpet to clean one’s self. Kent asks himself what Mark would do?
But then, Kent gives Dolly some more water, and Kent has another Jack and coke until he passes out.
Dolly is also learning personal boundaries, like, don’t always follow Kent into the bathroom and when
the door is closed, she doesn’t always have to sit at rapt attention waiting at the door. Kent can tell,
that Dolly thinks Kent may disappear, like you guys did and not come back. Kent shows photos of both
of you to Dolly, so she won’t forget what you look like, except she still confuses Larry’s photo with
pictures of other relative’s and magazine photos.
One time , when I said, “Find Larry’? she put her paw on a photo of Dick Cheney. Kent believes Dolly just has a strange sense of humor, or is just messing with him. We are both collaborating on writing a script for a movie, called “The last Lhasa Apso that didn’t listen ” it’s going pretty well, except now, Dolly doesn’t like the title . Well, we have to run. No, literally we have to run, Kent tried to tell Dolly, not to mix milk bones with mix nuts, but again, she wouldn’t listen.
Sincerely, Dolly and Kent.
