I am Stella, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges and we are having so much fun!
Me: You really like this game?
Stella: I like the way everybody looks so silly trying to catch the treats.
Me: Okay, to explain a little, I bought a toy that launches treats. So far, nobody has caught any. The treats mainly go sliding across the floor.
Stella: The bulldogs mainly go sliding across the floor, too.
Me: Let me try my alternative method of delivery.
Snoopey: Does this mean real delivery as in we finally get a treat?
Wiggles: I’ve been getting treats. You got to be fast.
Me: Let Doodlebug try first.
Tiger: Yeah, he needs the practice. Don’t start with somebody who catches 9 times out of 10.
Snoopey: Brag. Brag. Brag.
Tiger: No brag. Just fact.
Me: Okay, Doodle. Ready? Uh-oh.
Stella: Hahaha! It’s on his head.
Miss Sweetie: Doodle, look on your head!
Stella: He smells it, but he can’t figure out where it is! This is hilarious!
Miss Sweetie: Doodle, it just slid down to your back. It’s on your back!
Me: He can’t see it. He’s a bulldog. His back is invisible to him.
Snoopey: Poor Doodle. Help him find it, Lady Human!
Me: No, let him work his nose. He’ll find it.
Wiggles: What if I just walk over all quiet like and pick it off his back…
Doodlebug: Found it! Mine!
Me: Good boy! Good job!
Stella: Good boy? It landed on his head and it took him how long to find it? Drop a treat on my head. I’ll show you how it’s done!
Me: What if I just launch the treats in the air…
Stella: With a treat gun? Like that kid on that Picture Box movie? NOOO! You could put somebody’s eye out!
Me: I won’t ever aim it at anybody.
Stella: Famous last words.
Me: What if I use a sling shot?
Stella: Do you hear what you are saying?
Me: No?
Stella: Shot. Launch. Aim.
Miss Sweetie: Yeah, Lady Human. Cool food delivery. Can we get our breakfast that way?
