Porch Guard – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Buggdogges. What are you doing sitting out there, Lady Human? And what are we doing sitting here watching you?

Me: Tall Man asked me to watch the car while he’s working on something. He gave it a good cleaning and it has to dry out. That’s why its doors are open.

Doodlebug: It looks like a bird with four wings spread.

Sweetie: So you’re a guard of cars like we are of chickens.

Me: Chickens are more fun to watch.

Sweetie: Shouldn’t we have badges?

MoonCat: Where would we pin them?
