I am Stella, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human and Wiggles went off together by themselves the other day. I have held my peace in patience UNTIL NOW! Where did you go? What did you do? Why were you gone so long?
Me: And why is any of this your business?
Stella: Everything having to do with the Pack is my business. I am the Queen. If someone is having fun, I need to know about it so that I can demand equal fun time for me.
Me: If you must know, Wiggles and I went to the vet the other day.
Stella: Wrong answer! Visits to the vet never take that long.
Me: They do when the vet is super busy. Wiggles, where did we go in the car?
Wiggles: To a place I have been before.
Me: I know. But what happened there?
Wiggles: Stuff.
Stella: I know what you were doing. You were eating ice cream and corny dogs.
Me: Wiggles, were we eating anything?
Wiggles: No, there was no eating. I kept waiting and then that nice lady said something about a treat and then nothing like that happened and I was sad.
Me: What did happen?
Wiggles: One nice lady poked something into my rear end. That was not a treat. And then another nice lady let a bug bite me.
Me: That was a rabies vaccination.
Wiggles: She should not have let that bite me.
Me: It’s not a bug. It’s a shot with a needle.
Wiggles: She caught me when I was not looking. Not fair.
Me: Okay, Stella, does that sound like lots of fun to you?
Stella: I’m still not sure what was going on. But I’m sure I smelled corny dog on Wiggles’ breath when she got back.
